Meet Asher, a 9-month-old Hound/Labrador Retriever mix with stunning soulful blue eyes and a heart full of love. Weighing in at 28 lbs (12 kg), Asher may be small, but he’s packed with personality, resilience, and affection.
🐶 Rescue Backstory
Asher and his brother Paxx (aka Oakley) were found abandoned in the hills outside Puerto Vallarta as tiny pups. With no one to care for them, their fate could have been tragic—but kind locals stepped in, contacting a compassionate animal advocate who got them to safety.
Now living at a shelter in Guadalajara, Asher is healthy, playful, and full of hope for a brighter future.

🏡 Ideal Home
Asher is looking for an active, loving family ready to provide the exercise, structure, and affection he craves. He’d love walks, hikes, and time to run and play. He’s still young and would benefit from positive reinforcement training to help him grow into the amazing dog he’s meant to be.

🎓 Training Notes
- Knows basic commands in Spanish (e.g., “sit,” “lay down,” “give paw”)
- Learning to walk on leash
