MELODY

My story

Hola amigos and amigas! My name is Melody and here's some more about me: PHYSICAL INFO: Breed: Labrador mix Age: 3 years 2 months approx.  Gender: Female Weight: 44lbs (19 kg)  Height: 78cm (paws to top of my head) Length: 70cm (head to butt) Current Location: Puebla Mexico RESCUE STORY - I am a real warrior! When I was just a young'un (of about 1 month old), an unknown hooman left me on my rescuer's doorstep in a plastic bag. I have no idea how long I had been in that bag for but I was in a dire state and was breathing verrrry slowly and barely conscious. My rescuer, an angel lady, rushed me to the vet where after a couple days of TLC and rehydration, I managed to make a full recovery! Phew! Now for the past three years I have been patiently waiting for a chance at my very own forever home with a loving family to complete my happy ending! TEMPERAMENT - Since being given a new leash on life I have been sure to live it to the fullest as the happiest girl ever! I am a true blue cuddelbug who loooooves hoomans and attention. I am a shadow doggo, following my foster wherever she goes and keeping her company. I am also very friendly towards everyone and I LOVE to play with toys and other pups! My foster has described me as a real gem of a doggo who thrives on attention and would do best with a family that can provide me with lots of love and affection, plus help me get my energy out. A family that does lots of activity and exercise and can take me out to play with them often would be my dream come true! ENERGY LEVEL - High GETS ALONG WITH: Kids – Yes! I do well with kids as you can see here.  Dogs – I get along well with other pups and currently live with many other doggos! Cats – Unknown but can be tested upon request PREY DRIVE - Unknown. I’m not too sure how I’ll react around squirrels/rabbits etc. My adopter needs to be prepared and willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise. TRAINING: Leash skills – I do well with my leash skills, however I may need some additional patience and training. A double leash (with a secure harness) is recommended when I go for walks as I can get nervous in new environments and may be a flight risk. House trained – My rescuer says I am okay with this but I may need some additional training and patience.  Crate trained – My rescuer says I am not so familiar with this and I may need some additional training and patience.  Car rides – My rescuer says I am not so familiar with this and I may need some additional training and patience.  Please Note: WCP highly encourages adopters to do some research and training on their own before their dog arrives.  HEALTH NOTES:  I am spayed and vaccinated. NOTE: It is not uncommon for rescue dogs to require dental work/cleaning after they are adopted. West Coast Paws does not cover the costs of dental work and/or vet visits. These costs are the financial responsibility of the adopter. ADOPTION FEE: My adoption fee is $840.00 CAD including tax (5% GST, 7% PST), which includes my airfare, if a flight volunteer is found directly to Vancouver. ------------------------------------- DISCLAIMER: Please visit wcpdogrescue.com to read about West Coast Paws Dog Rescue and it's adoption process.
