Meximutts Make a Run for the Border All Summer Long!

In the end of May, and then again in late July after our spay camps, CWOB loaded up a van full of meximutts and headed north in search of happy endings for every one of the four legged passengers aboard.

Each deserving soul managed to enjoy the 24-hour trip, taking time to lounge beneath the robust summer sun during potty breaks and roll around in the fresh grass {quite a concept for these desert dogs} at the rest areas.

As always, the dogs were brought to Northern California where they were fostered and then adopted out through our partner organizations.

Nonis: To look at Nonis now is to behold a regal, rather proper, fairly refined young poodle. If you could have seen Nonis just a few short months ago, she would be unrecognizable – matted, undernourished, and filthy, living on the streets of Mexico had taken its toll on her delicate frame.

Nonis was rescued by one of our most dedicated foster moms in Mexico {who also happens to be a real poodle aficionado!} and nursed back to health, while receiving all the pampering a proper poodle demands!

Nonis was adopted out thanks to Small Dog Rescue and is now thriving in a home with another dog and a family that loves her!

Mia Luna

Mia Luna is lovely, pure and simple. Sweet, playful, and wide eyed – it takes approximately sixty seconds for most folks who meet her to fall in love.

Such was the case with her foster mom, Rena Conchlin. Rena, CAPE’s foster mom extraordinaire, has fostered dozens of Meximutts and, while she does always become quite fond of each one, she manages to find the perfect home for them and say her goodbyes.

Not so with Mia Luna.

Rena has fallen so madly in love with Mrs. Mia that she will be a permanent member of her household.

Look how well she fits in!

Pablo

Dignified, handsome, and very well behaved, Pablo is a true gentleman. Rescued from certain death at the animal control center in Juarez, Pablo seems grateful for every moment he has and rewards all those that meet him with his coy charm and gentle nature.

Browser

Browser is a high-energy man on the move! Friendly, happy, seemingly carefree. Browser seems to know that he has beaten the odds for an unwanted Mexican street dog and is determined to live up every moment of his fortunate new fate!

Wanda [aka Buddha]

Wanda, Wanda, Wanda. She is, without hesitation, really too darn cute to even describe.

Wanda is pure white with huge ears, a darling little muzzle, and an irresistibly chubby frame.

Wanda was rescued in Juarez, Mexico with a life threatening illness - heartworm disease. Wanda was brought back to California where she underwent the appropriate testing, treatment, and recuperation with CWOB cofounder Dr.Christi Camblor.

Wanda was then adopted out thanks to Small Dog Rescue to a family who absolutely adores her!

Valentino

Poor Valentino was rescued with a severe, infected injury on his rear foot that required surgical amputation within days of his being saved from an animal control center in Juarez, where he was abandoned and slated to be killed.

But all that is in the past and Valentino is none the worse for the wear these days. He gets around without any problem and is now in a loving home in Santa Cruz, California thanks to our friends at CAPE who fostered him and then found in the perfect family!

Borrego

Borrego was rescued from an animal control center in Chihuahua, during a humane euthanasia training that CWOB cofounder Moncho Camblor was overseeing. Borrego was filthy, his entire coat one entire matt, but that didn’t stop him from wagging his tail and looking for affection wherever he could find it.

Moncho was immediately taken by this scroungey dog’s upbeat disposition and sweet temperament and we have all been equally charmed with Borrego every moment since his rescue.
