Meet Tommy! This sweet terrier mix pup is only about 12lbs and was born around August of 2023 we are estimating. Tommy was given to our team in La Paz, Mexico after being in a home that wasn't able to care for him anymore.

Tommy can be a little shy when you first meet him but after a couple days really opens up to be the spunky, playful, and sweet boy that he is. Currently he is being fostered in Portland, Oregon but can be adopted anywhere in the PNW.

Tommy is house trained, but does have some accidents when adjusting to his new homes, and is also kennel trained. This sweet boy gets along with dogs and cats without any issues and is currently being fostered with multiple other dogs. Tommy is also a great leash walker and loves to go on car rides. The perfect family for Tommy probably doesn't have any small children living with him just because he does get scared a little more easily. This sweet boy cannot wait to meet his new family, and join them for his first holiday season in the PNW.

Tommy's adoption fee for Oregon, Washington, or California is $450USD.This helps us cover most of the 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.

All our pups come fully up to date on shots, are tested for heartworm and other diseases, microchipped, f***l tested, current on flea medications, and also come spayed / neutered.

Happy Sunday from our paws in La Paz! Sorry we've been MIA this week. Many pupdates coming this week. And some new adoptable pups too🐾

monthly rescues

This month in Baja we have rescued: 1. Rocky, a pitbull that was tied up to a fence post for days. Luckily, our mamager made space in her home for him ❤️ 2. A doodle named Poppy, he's a young boy who had a tough life living outdoors and eating garbage. His teeth at 10 months old were TERRIBLE. Luckily, we were able to help.💪 3. Akria is a husky who is 8 years old and was at risk of being discarded in the street. Our team stepped in before that happened. House dogs can not make it in the streets. They lose all their street skills after living indoors. 🏜 4. Marley, a small puppy, found with his brother Merlin. They were abandoned and on the brink of death when they were found in the streets alone with no parents in sight or owners. 🐕 5. Merlin, the brother of Marley. These two endured so much in their first 3 months alive. We can not wait for them to have a happy ending. 🐾 Our kennels are full now. But the requests for help haven't stopped. If anyone can foster in Baja, Oregon, or Washington we can make space for more dogs in dire need. Without the community we cannot save lives. ❤️ DM us for info on fostering! Or email [email protected] >> Savingbajapaws.org/volunteer

Foster to Save Lives

Fostering isn't normally fence hopping. Prince just got a little excited at hearing his foster mom's whistles. 😅 Fostering does allow our team to save more lives. It's the only way we are able to accept new pups is when space opens at the shelter. 🐾 So please consider saving a life by allowing us to have more open space at our shelter. Currently, we have 38 dogs, puppies, huskies, doodles, Labradors, and more. DM for more info or email [email protected] >> Savingbajapaws.org/volunteer

Guapo's Story of Survival- In early May of this year we got a phone call about a pup that was abandoned at a desolate beach near Todos Santos, Mexico.🏜 He appeared to be beaten, and his eye was in terrible condition. 😭 Our hearts broke knowing someone had abused this sweet soul and then left him for a long and painful death alone in the Mexican heat. 🐕 Our team jumped into action, with the help of the finder, and got him to town for the night. Then we quickly moved him to our vet Clínica Ortiz Camino Real for evaluation and intake as his wounds were very urgent and painful. 🩺 Upon intake, we saw he had many human made injuries, and some indicating he may have been used as a bait dog. However, our major concern was his eye, which was in poor condition and unfortunately not savable. 😭 Luckily, Dr. Alan jumped into action, and after a week of gaining his strength for surgery, Guapo had an eye removal surgery.🐶 After recouping doggie boarding at the vet for a few days he went to our amazing foster Maria Jose Revilla to begin the stages of healing 💪 Maria has helped him heal not just physically but mentally as well. His foster family has done an amazing job of helping Guapo learn to trust again, and be a confident, cuddly pup. 🥰 Guapo has learned so much and has healed so much both physically and mentally🐾 We have learned he is cat friendly, kennel trained, and loves playing with all the pups he meets. And even though he was brutally abused and left for dead he is still so trusting and loving of everyone he meets ❤️ Now, it is our job to help Guapo get the perfect ending for his story - a family to call his own forever. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 We can all help Guapo find a family by sharing his story. He is around 3 years old, 45lbs, house trained, very sweet, and super playful. ❤️ We can have Guapo to the Pacific Northwest for his perfect family by September 10th. ❤️ He is currently located in La Paz, Mexico. We could also

CHATO PUPDATE ❤️ Chato a SBP alumni is thriving in his new home. He has a fursibling. And gets to go to work with his mom almost everyday. We love this sweet boy and after 3 years in the shelter he deserved the best family 🐾 our hearts are so full seeing this wonderful boy thriving. Chato was originally rescued from being chained up at a farm in Todos Santos, Mexico. He then spent 3 years at our shelter waiting for his forever family 🐾

These are just some of the pups we rescued this summer. And their time spent in the PNW 🐾 Our paws are busy rescuing dogs from all over!🌎 Literally - Oklahoma, Texas, California, Oregon, Washington, and of course Baja, where we have our shelter and home base! 🐾❤️🐾 A lot of people wonder "why" we rescue from all over. When I started this program it was Baja focused, but through the years we have discovered we can help more dogs everywhere, including our Baja dogs, by expanding our paws throughout Mexico and the USA. The bigger our network, the bigger our reach, the more help we will receive in return. 🙏 This is why 2024 was the largest year of nationwide expanding, so we can receive more help in the USA, which ultimately leads to our shelter Baja pups getting more homes and notice too! 🔥 To help us save even more lives, please share our posts, we need more followers! Or consider donating to our venmo @Savingbajapaws Or becoming a monthly donor through paypal at Paypal.me/bajapaws It takes a village to save the world! Let's make our village huge ❤️

Help us raise this months shelter cost by donating just a dollar! Without YOUR support our paws cannot help more in need🙏 Our paws have had an amazing 4th summer in Baja Mexico. 🥳However, we took on some large medical cases from Cerritos, Todos Santos, and La Paz and are now WAY behind and can't afford to help anymore pups currently because we owe so much at the vet.😔😭 To help us be able to pay down our vet bills we are asking for some help covering food and shelter expenses this month. It would be a blessing for any help, and help us continue to rescue even more pups 🙏🐾 Our shelter where we house anywhere from 30 - 40 dogs at a time costs about $3,000usd every month. This includes dog food for 30 days, flea/tick medication for all dogs, and our live-in shelter manager who works 24/7/365. Every dollar helps! ❤️🙏 we are a 501(c)3 in the USA. paypal.me/bajapaws Venmo @savingbajapaws
