Lina arrived at Los Barrios pound in January 2025 and was about 1.5 years old on arrival. She is a gorgeous Crossbreed that was found presumably abandoned in the streets and brought to the pound.

Lina’s journey has been full of challenges, but her loving heart remains strong. She first arrived at the pound in July 2024 after being found on the streets in poor condition. A kind family took her in temporarily, but after an accident with a horse, Lina required surgery on her leg. Unable to provide the special care she needed, the family arranged for Lina to recover at a pet boarding facility before she came to the pound.
While she may be confused by the changes, Lina’s spirit remained bright and loving. She was still the cheerful, affectionate girl she has always been.

In October, when the pound flooded, Lina was lucky enough to go into a loving foster family. Her foster family told us that Lina thrived outside the pound’s walls. She was in foster care with Stich, a male PPP breed, and a female Chihuahua, and they said Lina was fantastic with children and other dogs. She was playful and sweet, constantly seeking cuddles and affection, showing how much love she has to give. She even learned to be more patient at mealtimes, now sitting calmly and watching. Her time in foster care allowed her to flourish and show her true, loving nature.

In November 2024, Lina was adopted, to what we thought would be her final home. Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond her control, Lina has recently been returned to the pound.

Now, Lina is back at the pound, still longing for that special family. She is ready for her forever home, where she can feel safe and loved. She’s been through a lot in her short life and truly deserves a family who will cherish her forever.

Could you be the one to give Lina the loving and final home she so deserves?
