My story

Meet Yazmin — A Little Shy Flower Ready to Bloom Name: YazminAge: 2 yearsGender: FemaleWeight: 5 kgBreed: Shiba Inu mix Spayed: YesVaccinated: YesHeartworm: Negative Good with dogs: YesGood with kids: Has not been around childrenGood with cats: NoLeash-trained: YesPotty-trained: Yes — clean in her foster environment and will adjust quickly to new house rulesCrate-trained: Not yet, but she’s a quick learner and adaptable When alone: Yazmin currently shares space with other dogs in her foster homeSleeping arrangements: A cozy dog bed on the floor in a designated area Personality & Temperament Yazmin is a tiny, tender-hearted girl who just needs a little time—and a lot of love—to show her true sparkle. She may be shy and reserved at first, but with patience and gentle reassurance, she blossoms into the sweetest, most affectionate little companion. Once she feels safe, her playful side comes alive! Yazmin loves playing with other dogs, enjoys being near her people, and her tail wags the hardest at mealtime—food is definitely her love language. Curious and energetic, she enjoys daily walks and does great in the car, making her a wonderful little adventure buddy. She’s not just a pet—she’s a gentle soul waiting for someone to see past the shyness and discover the love, loyalty, and joy she has to give. Yazmin’s Ideal Home Yazmin will thrive in a calm, loving home with people who understand that confidence takes time. With the right environment, she doesn’t just adapt—she truly shines. Her perfect match would be: A patient, loving family willing to let her settle in at her own pace A calm household without excessive noise or chaos Ideally another friendly dog, as she enjoys canine companionship and learns from them Adults or families with older, respectful children who understand her gentle nature She would be a wonderful companion for someone who enjoys quiet moments, leisurely walks, and sweet cuddles. Yazmin’s Rescue Story Yazmin was spotted wandering the streets of a struggling neighborhood, appearing day after day at the same time—searching for food, safety, and kindness. A young girl who worked at a stationery shop noticed her gentle presence and began feeding her, touched by Yazmin’s shy and tender soul. Though she wanted to help more, the girl already had a very ill dog at home and couldn’t take the risk. With her father’s help, she shared Yazmin’s story on Facebook, hoping the right person would notice her. When we saw Yazmin’s photo, we knew immediately we had to help. Her innocent, noble expression stole our hearts. With their help, we rescued this little angel and began her journey toward safety, healing, and love. Now, Yazmin is ready to leave her past behind and start a brand-new chapter—this time in a forever home. Adoption Details Yazmin is currently waiting in Mexico until a family commits to welcoming her on a 10-day trial basis.If you think you might be the one to help this sweet girl bloom, please apply at www.northwestwagrescue.org. Adoption fee: $600 Could you be Yazmin’s forever? ##2701764##
