Meet Kinich — A Gentle Girl Ready for Her Turn

Kinich is a beautiful 2½-year-old girl weighing 35 lbs, with a gentle spirit, sweet nature, and affectionate heart. She enjoys the company of other dogs, loves spending time with the people she trusts, and has a wonderful balance of playful curiosity and quiet companionship.

Kinich was rescued with Pach, Yum, their siblings, and their mom from a construction site where the Mayan Train railway was being built. The dogs had been surviving there with the help of kind construction workers who were feeding them and looking out for them. Concerned for their safety, the workers reached out to our partner, SOS El Arca Animal Rescue.

Thanks to their compassion, Kinich and her family were brought to safety and given the veterinary care, shelter, and attention they needed.

Today, two members of Kinich’s little family, Pach and Yum, have already made their journey to New York and have been adopted. Now we are hoping it will finally be Kinich’s turn.

Kinich is a sweet and sensitive girl who can be a little shy when she first meets new people or finds herself in an unfamiliar environment. She simply needs a little time to understand that she is safe. Give her patience, kindness, and consistency, and her affectionate personality begins to come through.

She does very well with other dogs and enjoys their companionship. A home with a friendly, confident dog could be wonderful for Kinich, giving her a companion to play with and look to as she adjusts to her new surroundings. She can also thrive as a solo dog with a patient adopter who will give her the time and stability she needs to build confidence.

Kinich is intelligent, eager to learn, and ready to experience everything that comes with being part of a family. She is crate trained and walks nicely on leash.

She is spayed, microchipped, fully vaccinated, dewormed, and 4DX tested. She is also on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention with Simparica.

Kinich has spent enough of her young life waiting. Pach and Yum have already found their families in New York, and we would love nothing more than to give Kinich the same chance.

She can travel to New York on our next transport, but she needs a committed adopter or foster-to-adopt home waiting for her before she can make the journey.

If you are looking for a gentle, affectionate young dog and would love the experience of watching her confidence grow as she discovers what it means to truly belong, Kinich may be the one you’ve been waiting for.

Pach and Yum have found their happily ever after. Now it’s Kinich’s turn.
