Yippy Zippy!

One morning, on the way to the base camp of the Canopy Adventure Park, Lorena, one of our awesome guides, spotted a little puppy along side of the road. Too small to be alone on its own, we stopped to see if the mother or siblings were close by. After scouring the jungle, we could not find his mom so our new found furry friend accompanied us to the base camp, much to the delight of the all guests going on the zip line tour.

Once at the camp, we decided the puppy needed a name and within a few seconds, it was unanimously decided and he was christened with the very fitting name of “Zippy.”  Everyone around wanted to have their photos taken with this cuddly creature and even take him home.

Luckily,  Zippy was adopted by Francisco, one of our technical supervisors and now lives in a happy home and sometimes even goes to work with Francisco as the official “unofficial” mascot of the Canopy Adventure Park zip line tour in Vallarta.
