Meet Josephina – Gentle, Sweet & Ready for Home 🐾

Josephina is a lovely black, short-haired girl with soft, delicate features and the kindest expression. She has a truly beautiful temperament — easygoing, affectionate, and naturally gentle with everyone she meets.

She enjoys playtime and has a happy, light energy, but what really stands out is how sweet and steady she is. Josephina loves connection and will happily soak up attention, making her a wonderful companion both for fun moments and quiet ones.

One of her biggest wins — she’s good with the resident cats at the rescue, which makes her an especially great fit for a multi-pet home.

She’s ready now and more than deserving of a life outside the rescue.

What Josephina Needs:

• A loving home ready to welcome her
• Continued guidance as she grows
• A family who will appreciate her gentle nature

Josephina is the kind of dog who just fits — soft, loving, and easy to adore.

Now she just needs someone to choose her.

However, it is essential to understand that while we strive to assess their compatibility with cats, we cannot guarantee their behavior in all situations.)

Before leaving Cortez Rescue: All dogs will be given a full medical assessment to ensure optimum health, current on vaccinations, and spayed/neutered. All dogs are micro-chipped before leaving Mexico.
