Hola! My name is OBI and here is some info about me: PHYSICAL INFO: Breed: Yorkie/Corgie mix

Current Location: MEXICO CITY RESCUE STORY - I was abandoned with my five brothers by my family when my parents got divorced.
When we arrived at the shelter, we were very dirty and thin.
Here is a video of me and my siblings when we first arrived.
Luckily, the kind hoomans at the shelter cleaned us and fed us and we are now back in excellent health! I am ready to start my new life with a loving family on the West Coast! Here is a video of me and my brother.
Here I am at the shelter.
TEMPERAMENT - The hoomans at my shelter say I am a noble, very obedient, tender and affectionate little guy.
I love getting pets and giving love to my people.
I also love to play with other dogs of all sizes and will even share my food with my pals at the shelter.
I am a big fan of croquettes, chicken and tortillas! I love to play with the ball and will invite you to play with me by fetching sticks for you! I am told that I am a lovable little guy and I have SO much love to give! I only have one weakness - I LOVE my brother Chewy.
We do everything together.
We even sleep together! I am very sad when we are separated and cry because I miss him.
I am really hoping to find a loving family that will take care of my brother Chewy and I forever and never abandon us again! Here we are together - aren't we cute!?
ENERGY LEVEL - Medium - I am a playful pup who loves to be with people and other dogs! I am sweet and affectionate and love to snuggle! GETS ALONG WITH: Kids Unknown.
Dogs Yes.
I play with dogs of all sizes at the shelter and will even share my food with them! Here I am at the dog park.
Cats 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 Good.
I am happy when out for walks! As with most young dogs, 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! Here is a video of me out for a walk with the pack! And me walking alone on leash.
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) to offer adopters one training session at a rate of $25 + tax and travel.
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 spayed/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.

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.
