CHEWY

Hiya! My name is CHEWY and here is some info about me: PHYSICAL INFO: Breed: Yorkie and corgi mix Age: Approx.

2 years old Gender: Male Weight: 18.5 lbs (8.4 kg) Height: 42 cm (paws to top of my head) Length: 58 cm (head to butt) Neck: 28 cm Chest: 46 cm Current Location: MEXICO CITY RESCUE STORY - I'm a spunky guy in search of a second chance! I once had a home of my very own, but my owners decided to abandon me and my siblings in the midst of their divorce.

Abandoned, all five of us, just because they thought we were in their way! We were all in pretty sad shape upon being rescued, covered in dirt and very thin.

It was clear that we were not being well cared for.

Thank goodness for our rescuer, they brought all of us to the shelter (see us arriving, here)! I am now healthy, thriving, and ready to find my forever family! TEMPERAMENT - I've been told that I have great manners and am very intelligent.

You could say I'm a smarty-pants! Just like my siblings, I'm an affectionate boy and just looove to give puppy kisses! Who is ready for all the lovin'?! I also love tortillas! ENERGY LEVEL - Medium - I enjoy playing with hoomans and my fellow doggos! Fetching the ball is my most favorite, I won't be shy asking you to play along! Here I am playing with my stick! And here is my fainting trick! While I love to play, I also like to chill out with my brothers, especially my brother Obi! We are the best of pals! When we are apart I miss him so much and tend to bark so that we can be reunited.

I really hope that we can find a loving home, together! GETS ALONG WITH: Kids Unknown.

I haven't had much exposure to kiddos here at the shelter.

Dogs You betcha! I love spending time with my siblings and my pals here at the shelter.

I get along well with dogs of all sizes! No signs of resource guarding.

Here's a video of me with the pack! And another video of me with other doggos.

Cats Unknown.

My past experience with kitties is unknown.

PREY DRIVE - Unknown.

I'm not too sure how I'll react around squirrels/rabbits etc., so my adopter needs to be prepared and willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise.

TRAINING: Leash skills Work in progress.

I'm still learning, as you can see in this video and this video, I can get a little distracted and many times I'm walking in a group setting (video here).

I will need an adopter who is happy to work with me on my leash manners.

A well-fitted harness and some dedicated leash training will help set me up for success! House trained Work in progress.

Frequent potty breaks and positive reinforcement will help me learn housetraining in my new home :) Please Note: WCP Dog Rescue partners with Unleashed Dog Training (Hannah Swain, Balanced Dog Trainer) to offer adopters 50% off one training session (not including tax and applicable gas surcharges).

Any subsequent sessions will be offered at standard rates.

WCP also highly encourages adopters to do some research and training on their own before their dog arrives.

HEALTH NOTES: I am neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.

I will come to Canada with proof of all my vaccines and test records.

I will be tested for Heartworm etc.

before flying North.

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 $ CAD + applicable taxes, which includes my airfare, if a flight volunteer is found directly to Vancouver.

The info included in each WCP bio is provided to us from the international rescuer.

WCP does not have in-person access to overseas dogs and cannot always verify the accuracy of their descriptions, although we ask for video proof of a dog's attributes wherever possible.

Every dog is an individual and can act differently in different situations based on the person(s) adopting them and the environment in which they live.

WCP is unable to guarantee the accuracy of a dogs age and/or breed.

These are strictly "best guesses" based on veterinary exams and their educated estimates.
