Ricki is a 4 year old min pin/chihuahua (best guess) in a Duncan BC foster home waiting for his perfect family.
Ricki is shy around new people (and rather barky) when people come into his foster home but corrects easily. It took him 2 days to warm up to his foster family but now follows them around. He is sweet and goofy, loves his toys and playtime with other dogs (no idea how he is with cats)
A calm loving home with a person that enjoys walks as much as he does. He is treat motivated (has a wee bit of weight to shed) and is the best cuddler ever once he feels safe and trusts you.
He has been in his current foster home for less than a week and has fit right in with the fur kids and humans. He will follow you anywhere, even the bathroom if you let him lol.
For more information about Ricki please email [email protected]

PupDate from Lenny's family !!!
Lenny (formerly Huizapol) has been with us since March 12th. From the very first couple of days, it was clear that he felt at home. Within days, it seemed like he'd been part of our family forever.
He was immediately great with our other two Mexpups. He gives us lots of kisses and is addicted to cuddling, hopping onto our laps as soon as we sit down. He's extremely friendly, very social, and a little derpy—the perfect little guy.
Like many street dogs, Lenny has been through a lot before making his way to BC. Since arriving, he has had eight teeth removed, we learned that his jaw had previously been broken and healed improperly, and we discovered that he's blind in one eye and will likely lose sight in the other due to a degenerative retinal disease (SARDS). You would never know it, though. His spirits and enthusiasm for life never seem to waver.
He is remarkably resilient. We can learn a lot from our dogs about how to face adversity, and Lenny is no exception. Despite everything he's been through, he approaches each day with joy, affection, and an endless desire to be our shadows. He follows us everywhere. He's already carved a place in our hearts, and we love him so much 😊

PupDate from Dylan's family !!!
My wonderful sweet, calm and cuddly MexPup Dylan (formerly Dillon) arrived from Mexico on April 24, 2026 and we bonded instantly. He is literally the best pup ever. He loves to go for walks and hikes in the forest, and to romp in the ocean. He also goes up to say hello to every person or dog he meets along the way. Dylan loves his belly rubs and he’s definitely is a Mexican Bedhog. Lol 😂
I would like to send a huge thank you to everyone at MexPup for all they’ve done for Dylan and I, and a special thanks to Grace at LADRA for the incredible work she did with Dylan. My experience with MexPup has been top-notch and I highly recommend them for anyone looking to foster or adopt a dog from Mexico. What an amazing team !

IN BC AND LOOKING FOR A HOME
We are searching for a new forever home for Mexpup Sugar🩷
Sugars family love her dearly, and this decision has not been easy, but due to some unforeseen health changes in her owners life this is ultimately the best decision for Sugar.
Sugar is an 11 year old terrier/ poodle mix. She weighs approximately 15lbs and is good with calm dogs and kids. Cats are unknown. She loves walks and car rides. She can be a bit shy but warms up after calm intros. She may be slightly losing some vision just due to age. She isn’t super cuddly but likes to lay next to her person and paw you so that you pet her.
Sugar is currently in Chilliwack, BC.
If you are interested in Sugar please email [email protected] or submit an application on our website 🩷

PupDate from Murphy's family !!!
"Murphy has been with us 6 years and he’s truly the best thing that’s ever happened. He is so smart and loving. Not to mention his stunning hair ! His favorite things are running fast and bed. He struggles with reactivity, so we were concerned last year when we brought home a 5 week old kitten whose mom had passed. However, Murphy was instantly in love with her. He had never seen anything so small and cute and his excitement was tangible. He took to his role as her dad so well.
Murphy has PREFERENCES. And he lets you know. He likes his food in a certain bowl in a specific place. He likes to be under the blankets in bed, between mom and dad. He will tell you if he needs you to roll over. He likes the other dogs to be quiet, and doesn’t put up with barking. Murphy has shown me (mom) what a soul dog is. Our other dogs are very loved, but Murphy is my soulmate and he doesn’t want to share. He will share, but you have to pay the Murphy tax first (lots of scratches and pets). He likes to be cuddling with me 24/7. Together is his favorite place. I like to say that we are together in holy Matrimurphy.
We are truly to fortunate to have such a precious boy! He could not be more loved )"
MexPup says: Thank you for adopting Murphy (formerly Nelly) and giving him the loving forever home he deserves. We’re incredibly grateful to your family for opening your hearts to him and making him part of your lives. See less

Please help Otto finally find the family he has been waiting so long for
Otto has spent far too much time hoping someone will choose him. Beneath his shy smile is a loving, loyal boy who just wants a place to belong. Once he feels safe, Otto gives his whole heart — with gentle cuddles, happy tail wags, and endless gratitude for every bit of love he receives.
He is playful, well-behaved, great on walks, loves people and other dogs, and dreams of having a family to call his own. Otto doesn’t deserve to keep growing up in a shelter while others pass him by.
Please open your heart to Otto, or help share his story so the right family can finally find him.

NEGRA
Is in a PV Foster & Looking for a Loving FurEver Home
~ FROM A CARDBOARD BOX TO A SECOND CHANCE
On the outskirts of Puerto Vallarta, a cardboard box was left on the street; inside were tiny puppies, only about 2 months old. Thrown away like they didn’t matter. But this little girl is here today because she does matter. She bravely managed to climb out of that box and was just moments away from being run over when kind neighbors stepped in to save her. They called for help and that’s when Nayeli showed up. Thankfully, some people simply refuse to look the other way. She and her siblings were rescued just in time. They were weak, underweight, and covered in ticks and fleas… but they were fighters. After receiving veterinary care and tests that thankfully came back negative for the worst diseases, they began their journey toward healing and a better life. Because every life is worth saving, and every puppy deserves a chance. Negra was one of those puppies.
Negra is about 3.5 years old, weighs around 19.5 kilos, and is a beautiful mixed breed.
Negra has transformed into the happy, loving pup she was always meant to be. She is playful, resilient, and full of love despite everything she has been through. She is on the lower-energy side, making her a wonderful match for a calm, loving home. A nice daily walk is all she needs to stay happy and healthy. She may be a little shy when she first meets new people, but once she feels safe, her sweet and affectionate personality truly shines. She gets along beautifully with adults, teenagers, and children, and she is social when visitors come to the shelter. Negra also does great with other dogs; she happily shares her toys, her favorite sleeping spots, and even her space during mealtime without any issues. She enjoys car rides and would love to be your little adventure buddy, and she walks nicely on a leash. When she sees other dogs on walks, she simply observes and keeps going, showing her calm and balanced nature. Negra is the kind of dog who will quietly fill your home with love, loyalty, and gentle companionship. She has already proven how strong and forgiving she is. Now she just needs someone who will never abandon her again because no dog should ever start life in a box…and every dog deserves a happy ending.
Negra’s adoption fee is $550, which includes her flight, spay, vaccinations, and full vetting. If you are ready to welcome Negra into your family, apply now at https://form.jotform.com/250991010499258 . For any questions or more information, feel free to email [email protected]
