PEPITO - Male - 3 years 4 months - 21kg
Meet the dog who will stare directly into your soul—and love you with his whole heart. This handsome guy is incredibly smart, deeply loyal, and just a little socially awkward. While some dogs are social butterflies, he’s more of an old soul who prefers meaningful connections over small talk. He’d much rather spend time with his favorite humans than join the canine party scene.

One of the first things you’ll notice is his intense, intelligent gaze. He makes remarkable eye contact and seems to study every word and expression, as if he’s always trying to understand exactly what you’re thinking. Living with him feels less like having a pet and more like having a thoughtful roommate who just happens to
have four legs.
He’s affectionate without being needy, loving without being over-the-top, and happiest when he’s included in whatever his people are doing. Whether it’s a walk, a car ride, or a quiet evening at home, he’s content simply being part of the family.
With a medium energy level, he’s the perfect balance between adventure buddy and couch companion. He’s always up for a hike, game, or training session, but he also knows how to settle down and relax unless he’s not receiving enough stimulation and he may surf the countertop to find something to cause some mischief, but he can be crated for his safety with very little concern and this trait can be worked on.
His intelligence makes him highly trainable, and he genuinely enjoys having a job to do and a person to work with. When it comes to other dogs, he’s pretty polite but doesn’t necessarily see the point of making a bunch of new friends. Humans are his favorite species, and he’d be thrilled to find a home where he can focus on building a strong bond with his people.
If you’re looking for a dog with character, brains, loyalty, and a gaze that will make you feel like the most important person in the world, this special guy might just be your perfect match.
He hasn’t been around young children less then 10 yrs, but is indifferent to them. Not cat tested.

Romeo - Available for adoption Lower Mainland/Okanagan/Sunshine Coast
Full bio in link - Must apply online: https://tacodog.ca/adoption-application/

Male - 12kg - 1 year - Tripaw

“Wherefore art thou Romeo?” .is a phrase you won’t need to say much with this velcro boy.
This handsome three-legged youngster is proof that happiness comes with a wagging tail and a little extra character. Despite missing a leg, he doesn’t let anything slow him down. He loves to run, play, zoom around the yard, and make the
most of every adventure.
He’s a cheerful, affectionate boy who lives for cuddles and being close to his people.
Whether he’s curling up beside you on the couch or enthusiastically greeting you at
the door, he’s always ready to share his love.
Like many young dogs, he has a delightfully goofy side. He’s a little crazy in the best
possible way—full of energy, curiosity, and enthusiasm for life. He may occasionally
forget that personal space exists, but his charm makes it impossible to stay mad at
him. The good news? He’s smart, eager to please, and very trainable with
consistency and positive reinforcement.
He’s mostly house trained, rides beautifully in the car, and enjoys joining his people
on outings and adventures. He has done wonderfully with calm, respectful children
and seems to appreciate quieter kids who are happy to give him cuddles and
attention. He has not yet been tested with cats, so any introductions would need to
be done carefully, but he hasn’t got a bad bone in his body.
If you’re looking for a resilient, loving companion who will keep you laughing, shower
you with affection, and remind you every day to enjoy life to the fullest, this special
tripod pup could be the perfect match.
Three legs, endless love

Lupita

Female - 16kg - 3 years

Lupita is an affectionate, loveable girl. She walks well on a leash and loves going on
adventures in the car. You can take her anywhere and she will adapt perfectly. She
would prefer to be a solo princess in her household as even though she gets along
with other dogs mostly, she gets easily overwhelmed which can turn into
possessiveness as she came from an overcrowded shelter. She is highly trainable
with treats, and will do just about anything for some love. She loves going on
adventures out and about but mostly loves curling up next to you wherever you are.
Lupita was in really bad shape when she was taken off the streets, and sadly she
deteriorated more in the overcrowded shelter. Now she is out, she is flourishing into
a healthy playful girl. With some cat-like tendencies Lupita likes to sit on chairs and
oversee her kingdom from above, or on your lap. Surprisingly, even though failed by
many humans in her past she is so friendly with them we sometimes have to remind
her not everyone wants to have a Lupita on their laps.
Lupita can have playdates with dogs as long as there is not a pack-mentality in an
already established group. She does enjoy other dogs company within reason and
with a strong bond to her human she listens very well to instruction.

Jellybean
Young female
1-2 years
Size itty-bitty 3.3kg

Meet your new shadow, sidekick, and snuggle expert all rolled into one adorable little package.

This sweet small lapdog is the definition of a devoted companion. Wherever her person goes, she’s right there—ready for errands, adventures, or just a stroll around the block. She forms strong bonds and absolutely loves “her human,” making her the perfect match for someone looking for a loyal, constant buddy. Don’t worry if you
need to go to work or pop out without her, she’ll be right there when you get back.
Don’t let her size fool you—she’s got a fun, energetic side! She enjoys playtime,
exploring, and keeping life lively. That said, she’s just as happy curling up in your lap
afterward, soaking up all the cuddles and quiet time she can get.
She does well with most other dogs, especially those who are friendly and respectful.
If her doggy companions play nicely, she’s happy to join in and be part of the pack.
If you’re looking for a loving, portable best friend who will stick by your side through
it all—whether it’s an adventure or a cozy night in—this little girl might just be your
perfect match
Not yet cat tested (but probably more scared of them than they are of her) - good
with kids, rides well in the car and is getting better at leash walking, if she has her
human she will walk well.

Lola

Meet a truly special girl with a story of resilience, patience, and love.
She was only a puppy when she was dumped outside a supermarket, abandoned in a cardboard box. Unsurprisingly, it took her time to learn that people could be kind and that the world wasn’t such a scary place. But with patience and care, she’s blossomed into a happy, affectionate young dog who is now ready to find her forever
home.
Today, she’s full of life and love. She greets the people she trusts with warmth and joy, and there’s something incredibly rewarding about earning her affection—it’s the kind that feels deeply genuine. She enjoys playing with other dogs and does especially well with those her own size or smaller, though bigger dogs can still feel a
bit overwhelming for her.
She would be perfectly happy in a home with children and even cats, and while she
would likely thrive with a canine companion to help guide her, it’s not essential. What
matters most is having a patient, loving human by her side—someone who can
continue showing her just how wonderful life can be.
She rides well in the car, walks on a leash but spooks at big loud noises, she’s crate
trained and loves to receive treats!
If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a gentle heart and a beautiful spirit, she
might just be the one. She’s come so far already, and her best days are still ahead.

❤️❤️❤️
