Female, 3.5 years, 17 kgs, submissive
Hello. My name is Maya, and I am looking for a furever home. My foster mom says I am a âsweety,â because of how gentle and easygoing I am. I am around 3.5 years old and weigh 17 kilos â but I am underweight right now and should weigh around 19-20 kilos. I am spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, and on heartworm preventative. I am very smart and well-behaved. I am also housebroken, and good with children of all ages, cats, and nonaggressive dogs (aggressive dogs scare me). I like to play with toys and other friendly dogs. I would love a home where someone gives me treats, scratches my ears, and gives me belly rubs. I like to go for walks using my harness, although I can be a little shy in new places. I am a very quiet dog and only bark when someone comes to the door. I would enjoy going to a dog park or on doggie play dates. I do not chew or cause any problems. My foster mom rescued me from a neglectful home. The people did not feed me, and when I got sick, they left me to die. Thankfully, I was taken to the hospital and am all better now. In some of my pictures, I am missing hair on my ears and nose from a skin infection. But that is all better now too, and my hair is growing back. Everyone who meets me says how pretty I am. I would make an excellent family dog as I LOVE children, or I would also be great in a home with one or two people looking for a dog to take for walks and spoil. My foster mom says I deserve a happy life because I am a good girl. I hope you will consider adopting me!!

Meet Indy, a spirited and charming dog with a few quirks that make him a unique and rewarding companion for the right person. Indy is a dog who thrives under good leadership and consistent training, and he’s ready to find his forever home where he can flourish and bring joy to his new family.
Leash Reactivity: Indy has some leash reactivity, but itâs a manageable issue with a person willing to provide guidance and correction. He needs someone who can read the situation during meet and greets, manage interactions, and teach him through correction and praise.
Prey Drive: Indy has a strong prey drive and can mistake small animals, like a chihuahua, for prey. Therefore, heâs not suitable for a home with cats or small children. However, with proper management, his behavior can be controlled. (lived in a house with a small dog, no one has been hurt, he will just chase and then he’s corrected)
Home Alone: Indy is fantastic at staying home alone without being destructive or anxious. He does, however, benefit greatly from having a canine companion. A home with another dog that can be his best friend is ideal for Indy.
Playfulness: Indy loves to play with other dogs. He enjoys games of chase and wrestling and is very respectful of other dogs’ body language. He shows no dominance and is always ready for a fun time.
Recall Training: Indy needs some dedicated recall training. With good leadership and a consistent training plan, this shouldnât be hard to achieve. He tends to be selective in listening, so he needs someone who wonât give him the chance to ignore commands.
Feeling Safe: Indy is a bit shy and needs to feel safe in his environment. Heâs like a little lamb, needing reassurance and a sense of security to thrive.
Group Interaction: Indy recently had a minor altercation with a Pitbull, through no fault of his own. He learned a valuable lesson about group interactions from this experience. Despite this, heâs a resilient dog who bounces back quickly.
Overall: Indy is a wonderful dog with a lot of love to give. He needs a home with strong leadership and consistency, and another dog to be his companion. If youâre looking for a playful, loyal, and teachable dog, Indy is ready to be your new best friend. Heâs a great dog, worthy of a wonderful home.

Male small size, more info coming, located in Costa Rica
Location: Currently being boarded at the vet’s office
Background: Valiente’s story is one of resilience and hope. About a year ago, this brave dog was hit by a car and left alone on the streets. Thankfully, a kind-hearted person found him and brought him to the vet. The amazing team at the vet’s office performed life-saving pro bono work on Valiente and have cared for him ever since.
Personality: Valiente is incredibly sweet and loving, but his tough experiences have made him a little shy. Despite this, he has a gentle nature that shines through once he feels comfortable and safe. He has a heart full of love just waiting for the right person to discover.
Challenges: Finding Valiente a home has been difficult. In San Jose, many people seek puppies or purebred dogs, which means Valiente often gets overlooked. However, his unique story and gentle spirit make him a truly special companion for anyone willing to look beyond the surface.
Why Adopt Valiente? Valiente is more than just a dog; he’s a survivor and a symbol of hope. By adopting him, you’re not just giving him a homeâyou’re giving him a second chance at life. He may be a little shy at first, but with patience and love, Valiente will be the most loyal and loving friend you could ever ask for. If youâre looking to add a special member to your family who will appreciate every moment of love and care, Valiente is the perfect match.

ââMaggie, like a magpie, picked up some shiny little puppies that were abandoned in the same area she was and took them on as her own. At only 8 months old she has been through a lot, although we know she had been dumped at the end of a road, her friends had been poisoned and there was only one lady who tried to help her by giving her food. Then Maggie ended up having the best turn of events, she was transported by a rescue centre made up of âchicken-heartedâ young women and they couldnât release her again. She was just too darn cute to put back onto the streets. So now here she is, learning how to be a young dog again, learning she is safe and learning to trust humans who once abandoned her, for now shes found some good ones but is looking for her forever humans.
ââ
ââMaggie is playful but also settles well in a house, she is loyal and cuddly and we know she will make the best companion for anyone who gives her the chance. Also like a magpie, (one for sorrow, two for joy) her first life was awful, but now she has found happiness in her second. She is good with kids and will be cat tested.Â

ââDini, named after the incomparable Harry Houdini, also made a fantastic escape. In her first months she was dumped at the end of a rural road with some other unwanted dogs by some unknown a**hat who was too irresponsible to spay their pet. She was terrified of humans (rightfully so, sheâd only met the ones that suck) until she was fed by a local woman and then brought to a rescue to help spay her. In her short time recovering from her spay she wriggled her way into the hearts of the kind people working at the rescue, another magic trick that is somewhat less mysterious.
ââSheâs now an outgoing puppy, with so much love to give. She plays well with all of her dog friends and loves kids, sheâs eager to please and happy to learn, sheâd ready for her forever home. She will come leash trained, house trained, crate trained and cat tested.

ââ
ââI was abandoned at the end of a track, apparently thatâs the place where all the unwanted dogs are made to go, I was really hungry and scared I hid for a long time until some other dogs with similar stories found me and we became a pack. Then a nice lady started feeding us and she asked for help to get us sterilized. I hid and didnât make it easy for anyone to catch me, which was super dumb because actually they were the bestest people, I didnât know humans could be okay.
ââIn the few short days I was in recovery from losing my huevitos I grew so fond of the rescue ladies that when they went to put me back at the end of the road I chased them all the way back to the main road and hid under their car so they couldnât leave me. Itâs called Trap, Neuter and Rugrat, right?
ââ
ââHeheh it was a good trick. I love the rescue centre. I get to play a lot with other dogs but also sleep in my crate which is good because thatâs my safe space, no one else comes in there and sometimes I just need a breather you know? I love cuddles with humans, big and small, and belly rubs? Wow. Iâve only had those for a few short weeks but so far they are my favorite things. I also love to learn, I am getting the hang of walking on a lead, I only go to the toilet outside, and I sleep the whole night comfy and safe in my crate.
ââ
ââThey say because I am a black dog it is going to be harder for me to find a family, I am really hoping that isnât true because if I found a family, I know it would be the most amazing thing in the world and Iâd love them for ever and ever every minute of the day

I was found with my brother, Dante, as a tiny puppy, in a very poor neighborhood in Campeche. We were all covered in scabs and my rescuer was pretty sure we wouldnât survive. She took us home and began a long, long process of trying to get us healthy. Our itch was contagious so we were isolated from the outside world and that didnât help us overcome our fear of humans. We like her a lot but we didnât learn to trust others.
I decided I wanted to live and now my body is strong and it can do wonderful things like run. I look like I am part whippet and I act like a whippet. I can run really fast like the wind and I am freeeeeee and my tongue hangs out and it is the best feeling in the world ahahahahaha! I easily outrun my foster brothers and sisters, boy are they slow? I am also really lean and my metabolism is amazing, donât hate me, I was born this way.
Like many whippets, I am also kind of nervous around (some) new people. Some of you guys are great right away and I am my goofy loving self around you. But some humans just look at me weird, you know? I am getting a lot faster (pun haha) at getting over my apprehension and I come around quickly but I am never going to be the life of the party. I prefer quiet places and a predictable routine.
Iâd like having a nice dog buddy to help me build confidence and stay feeling safe, I miss not having a brother. Like with people, I can be a little insecure around dogs with bad manners, so I am not so sure that the dog park will be my favorite place, at least not for awhile.
My best features other than my stunning brindle coat are my boundless love for my people, my endearing goofiness and my amazing cuddliness, which honestly is off the fricking charts. I may not be a party boy, but I am definitely a forever kind of boy.

Guau! Guau! (hello in Costa Rican dog speak). My name is Teddy! I turned 4 months old in June and weigh a little less than six kilos. My mom is a smaller Australian Shephard mix â although I do not look anything like her. I take after my dad who is a Terrier mix. My foster mom says that makes me the perfect dog because I have a double dose of smarts, obedience, playfulness, and a strong desire to be loving and loyal. I will probably be small to medium-sized, around 10-15 kilos, when full grown. My foster mom is the best. She is teaching me to sit for treats and potty training me. I am doing very well (did I mention I am smart?). Because I am a puppy, I need lots of toys around to play with and chew on. I am playful, but not hyper. I am EXCELLENT with all dogs and kitties. I would also be good in a house with children over two years old. I do not puppy nip â but I do sometimes jump up or puppy mouth when I get excited. However, my foster mom is also teaching me not to do this. I am not a big barker â unless I hear a strange noise or get scared. And I always listen when I am told to be quiet. I am very loving and enjoy snuggles and belly rubs. I would be great at the dog park and on puppy play dates. Prior to coming to live with my foster mom, my life was not a happy one. I was part of an unwanted litter of puppies. When I got hit by a car, I was just left on the side of the road to die. But just in a nick of time, my foster mom found me and took me to get emergency surgery to make me all better. I was in the hospital a really long time as I recuperated from my tummy injuries, as well as having to have a cast on my broken leg. It was no fun. But the vet staff said I was a trooper and a very good boy during my recovery! They said not to tell the other doggies at the hospital, but I was their favorite.
I am neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, and I am on flea/tick and heartworm preventative. Because of the break to my leg, I need to be on calcium tablets until I am six months old to ensure that my bones continue to mend nicely. My orthopedist says everything looks great, and I shouldnât have any long-term problems. Since having my cast off, I am already running around and playing â no more pain!! Everyone who meets me says I am extremely adorable and loads of fun. I have nothing butlove to give. Look at my sweet face â how can you not adopt me?!?

Mix: MALIX Age: 3 years old Birth date: 2021 , female Weight: 19kg
Temperament: Shy a 1st, but once she warms up she is a wiggly monkey Energy: Medium
Behaviors & Temperament: Initially, she might appear a bit reserved, but once she warms up, her vibrant personality shines through. With a high energy level, she’s always up for an adventure. She adores children, gets along famously with other dogs and cats, and isn’t shy about expressing herself with a bark or two. Lula is housebroken. On the leash, she’s a model of good behavior, and she’s a delight to have in the car. Lula would do better in a home with a more submissive dog as she is on the alpha side.
Rescue Story: Found tied to a fence under the sun, she was thin, fearful, and struggling with some skin issues.
Foster Assessment: In the company of dogs, cats, and people alike, she exudes warmth and friendliness. Whether exploring the great outdoors or strolling on leash, she’s equally content. Although she may start off a tad shy, her affectionate nature shines through, making her a lovable companion through and through.

Sadie is a 10-month-old female Lab mix located in Costa Rica and weighs 10 kilos.
She has a beautiful âpuppy faceâ that will most likely be lifelong. Sadie is a very healthy dog who is active but not hyper. She is spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, as well as on flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. Sadie is great with cats and dogs. She can be a bit shy at first but warms up with treats, love, and belly rubs. She would also be good with children of all ages as she is very gentle and does not puppy nip or mouth (although she might be a little shy of children below 4 years of age). Her favorite thing in the world is snuggles in bed in the morning. She would do great in a home with another dog to act as a playmate/companion. She is housebroken and loves to play with toys. Good on a leash and enjoys walks. Very sweet and loving. She does like to roam and explore, so a fenced yard is a must. She is not food aggressive or barky. She will bark if she hears noise but then stops when told to. Despite being a Lab, she isnât a chewer or destructive. She is still a little scared of riding in the car. She would do great at a dog park or on doggie play dates. Sadie was abandoned at a local park. She did not leave the spot where they dumped her for more than twelve hours. She even sat out in a horrible thunderstorm, shivering and scared as she waited for her owners to return; but they never did. Because of this, it took a little while to gain back her trust in people. Thankfully, she now understands that there are nice people in the world who will truly love and care for her.

Woof! (hello in dog speak). My name is Cody, although my foster mom refers to me a lot as âFuzzy Goofball,â so I answer to both. I am around 11-12 months old and weigh 13 kilos. I was living on the streets, eating out of garbage bins until my foster mom rescued me. For the first time, I have received so much love and affection that my tail hurts from wagging so much as a way to show my thanks. My foster mom says that I make her laugh all the time, hence the nickname, Fuzzy Goofball. I love to play with my toys, especially my rope toy which I shake around, toss into the air, and then play fetch with myself. Did I mention that my nickname is Fuzzy Goofball? My favorite part of the day is when we go for a walk. I am very good on a leash. I am also an excellent watch dog, and I bark whenever a stranger comes to the house. However, I am a good boy and will be quiet once I am told to. I am also a good boy and never chew on things (just my toys). I am also not food aggressive and am very gentle when I take treats from peopleâs hands (my favorite treats are pieces of cut up hot dogs â hint, hint). My foster mom also says I am wicked smart. I learned my name very quickly. I am also housebroken and do my best to listen to what she says. I do this because I get rewarded with Eskimo kisses and snuggles. I am a big hugger. I also like to sleep at the foot of the bed so in the morning, as soon as my foster mom wakes up, I can cuddle with her. I am great with other dogs and cats. I currently have nine foster brother and sister poochies and three foster kitty siblings, and I get along well with all of them. I would also really enjoy going to the dog park. I would be perfect as a companion to a single person or couple looking for love as well as in a home with children over the age of ten. I love kids â but because I am still a puppy at heart, I sometimes âpuppy mouthâ on peopleâs hands and fingers. Sometimes, I also play-growl. Because of these two things, I wouldnât want a child to think that I was aggressive when I am just doing what puppies do. My foster mom is teaching me not to do these things, but I can forget when I get excited. Because I have not had a stable home until now, I also get attached very quickly. So when my foster mom leaves the house, I do bark for a little while. But after 5 minutes or so, I calm down. She is teaching me not to worry because she will come back. I am neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, and I am on flea/tick and heartworm preventative. I do have a small bump on my back left foot from where I broke it somehow. However, the vet says it is healed nicely. I am an extremely handsome boy with nothing but love and affection (and doggy kisses) to share. Do you think that I might make a furry addition to your family?

Meet Clementine, a resilient and intelligent medium-sized female dog with charmingly short legs. At approximately 5 years old, Clementine has endured much hardship. She was found pregnant and abused on the streets, and remarkably, began giving birth in the car while en route to the vet. Clementine has birthed 15 puppies and has bravely overcome health challenges including erlichia, anaplasma, and heartworm, all of which she has successfully been treated for.
Clementine is a calm and loving companion, exhibiting low to medium energy levels. She is wonderfully gentle with children and gets along well with other dogs, though she prefers a home without cats. While she shows some protective tendencies outdoors, especially around cars and certain people who may remind her of her past traumas, she has made significant progress. Clementine is leash-trained and behaves well in cars. She does not need a crate, as she is fully housebroken, barks minimally, and is a low shedder.
Though Clementine is still mastering her social skills during walks, she is a quick learner who already knows commands like “paw” and “sit,” and she’s eager to learn more tricks. She does exhibit some resource guarding, so a bit of patience and training in this area will help her adjust fully to her new, loving home.
Clementine’s story is one of triumph over adversity, and she is ready to bring joy and companionship to a caring and understanding family.

From the streets of Campeche, Cosa showed up in El Mirador wandering the streets. When Cosa went into heat, she was taken in so she would be protected and be spayed. Shy and not sure at first, she grew confident and adapted very quickly to life in a yard and a house. Once she was allowed inside the house, she took it all in with rules and limits. She now knows couch life, bed life, food life and fully house trained life.
Cosaâs favorite things:
PLAYING: she is playful, funny, curious, on her own but definitely prefers people and dogs. She loves her toys, running the zoomies, chasing a ball and also just hanging with a bone or chew toy (supply lots of chew toys). Her tail has its own personality and is always happy. If you canât see her, you can hear the thumping of the tail.
FOOD: The treat word was out. She is food motivated for training and dinner time. Not picky or food competitive/guarding, she will finish a bowl when it’s left behind and allowed by her foster mom. She loves a good bucket of fresh water, a bacon strip or a piece of cheese.
PEOPLE: she may take her time to get to know people but once she knows you, she is all in and wants to play or just hang out. Sticky, loving, attentive, you will never go to the bathroom alone. She knows how to ask for love and pets all while knowing her limits and just chillinâ on her own.
LEARNING: quick, witty, intelligent, adaptable, hilarious, ready for any adventure. Cosa is ready for any walk (advanced leash skills with constant check-ins) which includes lots of sniffing and discovering. Sheâs always in for a good car (great car etiquette) ride as she knows that itâs being with you and exploring ensues but close the windows, she’s in a hurry to explore. She is learning english – sit, stay, quiet, leave it, bring, dinner, treat, water. Super fast learner.
SLEEP: with all the puppy power, Cosa likes/loves naps. Like it on the floor, in a dog bed, on the couch, on a blanket, in the sun, in the shade. Even with all the naps, she sleeps through the night and will let you know when she’s ready to go for her morning romp.
Cosaâs sweet soul and loving heart will do anything to please and will be 100% dedicated to her people and any fur siblings. Give her a family, she will give back 100 fold
Chica was discovered living in a gated community’s golf course, initially shy but quickly warming up to humans and dogs. She became a beloved member of the neighborhood, joining other dogs for daily fun and games.
Chica is playful and ideal for someone with an active lifestyle. She gets along well with high-energy dogs but can also match lower energy levels. She loves walking, running, and is incredibly smart, quickly learning new tricks. While her leash manners are a work in progress, she’s training with a professional. She’s housebroken, enjoys cuddling and being calm indoors, and is good in cars. Chica does exhibit resource guarding and can be nervous around some men, but she’s working on this with professional help.

Introducing the gentle soul you’ve been searching for: Roxy!
Behaviors & Temperament: Roxy embodies pure love and tranquility, making her an ideal companion for any family. With a moderate to low energy level, she’s content to lounge by your side or join you for leisurely strolls. She adores children and gets along swimmingly with other dogs, though we’re still discovering her feelings towards cats. Remarkably quiet, Roxy isn’t one to bark unnecessarily. While she’s still working on perfecting her house manners, her willingness to learn is evident. Yes, she does shed a bit, but her affectionate nature more than makes up for it. she walks like a dream on leash and rides like a champ in the car.
Despite a challenging start, including a left leg surgery due to a significant fracture, Roxy’s resilience shines through. With her dental health in check and regular deworming and flea/tick preventatives, she’s on the path to a bright future.
Rescue Story: Roxy’s journey to recovery began when she was found injured on the roadside, her left femur fractured. Thanks to the compassionate care she received, including surgery in February 2024, she’s now on the mend. Her loving, obedient, and sweet nature has remained unwavering throughout her ordeal, proving that nothing can dim her gentle spirit.
Roxy is more than just a survivor; she’s a testament to the power of love and resilience. Could you be the one to give her the forever home she deserves?

Bob was rescued by my teenage son in the parking lot of a shopping center. He had a red thread around his neck, was malnourished, tired, and had recent fight wounds on his face, a fractured tail, and a lot of hip pain. He walked with great difficulty and began to follow my son until they reached the car. My son put him in the car and brought him home. He has been recovering little by little. The wounds on his face have healed, but he definitely has a fractured tail. He is a quiet dog, follows instructions in English, does his business outside the house, even though he is male, he does not mark territory and socializes easily with other dogs and people. He is a great dog, loves to keep company, and be with company. He definitely doesn’t like to be alone, loves to go for walks, and walks very well on a leash.

Choco embrace a serene, playful, and protective nature, particularly towards humans and children. He is very social with other dogs and shows an excellent overall behavior. However, he does tend to exhibit a touch of apprehension and distrust when unfamiliar individuals intrude into his personal space. When it comes to cats, like many dogs, they pique his curiosity, and while he has never caused harm to one, he does tend to chase them. Therefore, it is recommended that Choco always be kept on a leash as a precaution.

RESCUE STORY
*****
Choco’s life has been a tale of resilience. He endured a period of abandonment, wandering the streets and yearning to escape the confined, less-than-a-square-meter space in his owner’s backyard, which was littered with debris and devoid of sustenance or hydration. Tragically, one day, he fell victim to a car accident that left him with a damaged tail, with a portion of it mutilated, and a wounded leg, which, thankfully, did not fracture.
During this challenging period, a compassionate woman attempted to rescue and aid him in his recovery. Regrettably, Choco’s owners resisted her efforts and took Choco back and subjected him to even more mistreatment. He became the target of physical abuse, endured days exposed to heavy rainfall outdoors, fell seriously ill, and was left alone in the scorching sun, all of which significantly deteriorated his health. He started to grow depressed, and developed a deep-seated fear of everyone, including those who secretly brought him food to alleviate the suffering he was enduring due to the abuse and abandonment.
One fateful day, he was discovered wandering far from his previous torment, and without hesitation, rescuers took him under their care, providing him with the safe haven he so rightly deserved. Choco now seeks a compassionate soul to share the light in his eyes, the warmth of his kisses, his boundless joy, and unwavering loyalty.
