✨ Meet Shaggy ✨
Shaggy came to us with Paloma and Scooby after their owner in San José sadly passed away. With no one left to care for them, kind neighbors did what they could — but these three suddenly found themselves without the home they once knew.
He’s a sweet, playful boy who’s understandably cautious right now. Losing your person and ending up in a shelter would shake any dog, but Shaggy is trying his best to trust again. He has a thick coat and needs a cooler environment. Mexico is too hot for him.
• 🐶 Medium‑sized
• 🐶 Neutered
Shaggy deserves a calm, loving home to help him heal from such a big loss. He’s ready for someone who will show him he’s safe again. 💛

Adoption Fee: $540 USD/ $600 CAD
Adoption process:
Our rescue is located near Bucerias, Mexico. We use Petfinder to reach a greater audience for our dogs and adopt the majority of our dogs to the US and Canada.
If you are ready to adopt, the first step is to submit an application on our website here: https://www.adogsnewlife.org/adopt
Once we receive your application, we will review it and may contact you for more information or to conduct a home check. If your application is approved, we collaborate with flight companions (flight angels) flying from Puerto Vallarta to destinations close to where the dog is posted as available for adoption. Adopters can meet these flight angels at the airport and take the pup home. (More detailed information about this process is available upon request.)
⚠️ It can be challenging to secure Canadian flight angels during May and June, so dogs may need to fly into the US and be picked up at Peace Arch Park at the border if a Canadian flight angel is unavailable.
We have successfully completed many adoptions over the summer with volunteers helping to bring dogs to their adopters at the border — this remains a great option to keep adoptions moving forward. 🐾✈️❤️
Please follow us on TT, IG and FB. Please consider adopting or fostering one of our dogs, the shelter is full.
