About Pelusa

Pelusa has been through a lot but never lost her gentle spirit. She was abandoned outside a shelter in Mexico, tied up and giving birth, but devotedly cared for her pups until they found homes. Now it's Pelusa's turn. At around four years old, she's an affectionate, medium-sized dog who loves to be around people and truly seeks close connection. Pelusa bonds deeply, leans into attention, and thrives on positive interaction—she already knows simple commands like sit and give paw. She gets along well with other dogs and does great with children. Her experience with cats is unknown. Pelusa isn’t fully house trained yet, but she’s eager to please and enjoys learning. She’s got a soft spot for anyone who shows her kindness and would make a loyal, devoted companion. Pelusa is currently being fostered in Mexico but will travel to the U.S. once her family is found. Her adoption fee is fully sponsored. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
