Meet Shasta! This sweet pup was found in Todos Santos, Mexico in February of 2025. We think she was only about 2 months then, so we estimate her birthday is in December of 2024 - putting her around 7 months now. Shasta is a very sweet girl that weighs around 30lbs currently, we believe she will not grow over 40lbs, as is typical for the area. Currently Shasta is at our shelter, waiting on the right foster or family to pick her and change her life.

Shasta is a very sweet girl, who is still just a puppy exploring her new world. She was recently moved to our shelter in La Paz, after spending a whole month in foster care. Shasta learned kennel and house manners while spending time in foster care, as well as how to be around cats and young children. Shasta loves all her animal friends and really enjoys going to the beach and on any adventure her hoomans want to include her in. Shasta loves car rides, especially if it leads to her playing fetch at a dog park or on a trial. We think with her medium energy level, mixed in with some devilish puppy shenanigans, Shasta will make the perfect companion for any family looking to add a young pup to their lives. Currently Shasta is at our shelter in La Paz, but can arrive in the PNW as soon as her perfect family or foster reaches out!

All of Saving Baja Paws dogs come with a fantastic flexible foster-to-adopt option. This is a unique opportunity that allows your family to make sure it a perfect match with your new pup.

Shasta's adoption fee for Oregon, Washington, or California is $350USD. This helps us cover most of her vet and care costs incurred in Mexico, and the transport fee to bring our pups over 1,500 miles to the PNW. All our dogs come spay or neutered, with all theirs shots for the year, and have had multiple blood tests done prior to entering the USA from Mexico.

🚨 URGENT TRAVEL HELP NEEDED 🚨

Koby the pug and sweet Quinn are ready to fly to their forever homes in the PNW, but we’ve hit a last-minute hurdle. We weren’t able to find a volunteer to take them to the airport, and now we’ve had to hire a taxi to make sure they don’t miss their flight. 🥺✈️

We’re kindly asking for 2,500 pesos ($130usd) to cover this unexpected transport cost from La Paz. Every peso counts, and time is tight — they’re scheduled to travel in just a few days!🙏

If you can donate you will be helping two deserving pups finally reach their families waiting with open arms. 💛🐾

Meet Quinn! This sweet puppy was surrendered to us in La Paz, Mexico in early 2025. We estimate Quinn is about 4/5 months old as she was given to us barley weened with her sister and mother. Her mom is no more than 15lbs, and we are guessing her dad was also a very small breed based off her current size and rate of growth. Quinn is a sweet puppy who has learned a lot in the two months in foster home. She cannot wait to find a family of her own this summer and start making life-long memories.

Quinn is a very playful puppy who is very confident around new dogs and cats. She has grown up with cats and is also in the process of her kennel training. Quinn is in a foster home with dogs of all sizes and small children. We think she would be the perfect addition for any family, and she is available to come to the PNW as soon as she has a family waiting for her. Quinn loves exploring, and with her size can sometimes even be hard to find! We think she will make any family laugh with her silly ways, and we cannot wait to hear stories of her adventures. Quinn is avaible for foster or adoption, and is planned to arrive in the PNW unless she adopted sooner.

Photos were taken May 16th, 2025 - she has grown just a tiny tiny bit since these. Photo of mom also included.

All of Saving Baja Paws dogs come with a fantastic flexible foster-to-adopt option. This is a unique opportunity that allows your family to make sure it a perfect match with your new pup.

Quinn is currently located in La Paz, Mexico at our shelter and is hanging out in the sun and with their doggie friends all day long. Quinn is ready to venture to the PNW if she has a dedicated foster or an adopter. Once a pup is picked for a new family they can normally arrive to the PNW within 15 days.

Quinn's adoption fee for Oregon, Washington, or California is $475USD. This helps us cover most of her vet and care costs incurred in Mexico, and the transport fee to bring our pups over 1,500 miles to the PNW. All our dogs come spay or neutered, with all theirs shots for the year, and have had multiple blood tests done prior to entering the USA from Mexico.

Meet Melinda! This sweet pup was surrendered to us in early 2025 along with her two babies. Melinda is around 2 years old, as we estimate she was born in the middle of 2023, and weighs around 14lbs currently. Our adorable Melinda loves every human she meets, and plays well with other dogs. We cannot wait for her perfect family to find her in the PNW.

Melinda was surrendered to us with her 2 little girl pups when they were barley weened. Though it must have been scary to move environments for her she did it with grace and confidence. Melinda now plays with other dogs of all sizes and hangs out with her cat friends. She also has a ton of experience around younger children, and loves to be shown affection and attention. This sweet girl is house trained and kennel trained. She can sleep in or out of her kennel at night, and has no accidents, making her the perfect cuddle companion at night. Melinda loves to play, and though she is cat friendly loves to chase toy mice and butterflies in the yard. This gal is very cute and we think she would make the perfect companion for any family. She is currently residing at our shelter, but will arrive in Portland no later than July to begin her journey into foster care. If she is adopted sooner we could bring her in June! Melinda can not wait to find her perfect forever family and start creating summer memories to last a lifetime.

We believe Sirius and his siblings were born in August of 2024, shortly him and his brothers were taken in by a local puppy shelter. Now Sirius is residing at our shelter waiting for a foster or adoptive family in the PNW to pick him so he can come north.

Sirius Black is a sweet little guy, who only weighs around 30lbs and isn't expected to get any bigger really. He is the middle size of his siblings, whom have all been adopted, and plays really well with dogs of all ages and sizes. Sirius can be shy when you first meet him, but does have a lot of experience around young children. Both his siblings have thrived in their new homes, and we have no doubt that Sirius will also thrive once he is adjusted to the PNW. Sirius cannot wait to find his new family and make some amazing summer memories.

Meet Bambi! This sweet pup was found in La Paz Mexico in early 2024. She is a sweet, cuddly, playful gal who is around 2 years old now as we estimate she was born in June 2023. This sweet girl is currently looking for her forever family in the PNW, and cannot wait to start a nightly cuddle routine.

Bambi was surrendered to us from a local in La Paz after she had found her in the streets. She was fostered for a few months and has house manners, though she may need some refreshers in her new home. Bambi is kennel trained and plays well with other dogs. She can be a little shy of new humans, and may cower away from you, however she warms up really quickly and has experience around young children! Bambi is walked weekly by local teenagers, and loves the attention and play time. This sweet girl does have a lot of energy when you first meet her, but after adjusting in a new home and learning her new daily routine she becomes very calm and well behaved. Bambi would make the perfect addition to any home and cannot wait to find her perfect family.

Meet Diego! This sweet pup was found in Todos Santos Mexico in early 2024. He was fostered until fall of 2024 then he moved to our shelter while he waits for his perfect family to find him. Diego was born around March of 2023, and weighs around 42lbs currently. This sweet boy can be a little shy when you first meet him but warms up very quickly and becomes super cuddly and playful. Diego is coming to the PWN in June 2025 to go into a foster home to continue his search for his forever family.

Diego is a sweet boy who can get scared in situations with a lot of new humans. We are searching for the perfect family who can let Diego decompress at his pace, and shower him with love and treats to show him that he is safe and loved. This adorable pup is house and kennel trained, he also has a ton of experience walking on leash. We do think a home with children 14+ would be ideal, as he likes a calmer home. Diego is very playful, and loves going to the beach and on car rides. He is also dog friendly and loves to make new doggie friends. Diego is the right match for any family looking to add a loving and sweet boy into their lives. Diego will be arriving in the PNW and going into foster care until his perfect family finds him.

All of Saving Baja Paws dogs come with a fantastic flexible foster-to-adopt option. This is a unique opportunity that allows your family to make sure it a perfect match with your new pup.
