About Joaquin

Joaquin is a 50lb, soft soul who loves other dogs and has the sweetest, quietest spirit. He was born beside a busy road in Puerto Vallarta and survived what some of his siblings did not. Today, he is a gentle, calm, and sweet boy who can be shy at first but blossoms with patience and love.

Ideal Home

A patient, loving adopter who can provide a calm environment. Another friendly dog would be a bonus for Joaquin.

Ongoing Health

Joaquin is healthy and thriving.

Training & Support

Joaquin is shy at first and will need time to warm up to his new surroundings and people. A patient and understanding adopter will help him feel secure and blossom.

Application Details:

Applications start by contacting us through Wags.
Please visit wags.com to begin the adoption process.

Transportation

Our rescue is located near Bucerias, Mexico. Approved adopters are matched with flight companions (flight angels) traveling from Puerto Vallarta. You'll meet them at the airport to welcome your new pup home. If a Canadian flight angel is unavailable, dogs may need to fly into the US and be picked up at Peace Arch Park at the border.
