My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Very tiny, and awfully cute, Chapo is as sweet as a demitasse of sweet tea.

Only about two years old, and weighing in at a whopping 3.5 pounds, Chapo is the perfect accessory to any outfit as he would prefer to be held and carried wherever his person is (or people are).

Chapo is crate trained and does OK on a leash. He gets along with all of the dogs in his foster home, even though they are all bigger than him. (You can see just how small he is in one of the pictures we've posted of him.) Cats? Well, he is so tiny they would probably frighten him.

We are looking for a home for Chapo where there are no children under the age of 12. If you think Chapo would be the perfect addition to your family, and perhaps your lap and wardrobe, please read on to find out how to apply for adopting him. You can also find more information on our website - throwmeabonedogrescue.org.

All potential adopters are expected to complete an application and provide pictures of their yard, patio, and/or balcony making sure we can see the fence line and/or railing. The application can be completed and submitted from our website - throwmeabonedogrescue.org - and is found under Resources. Applications will be reviewed for approval before setting an appointment to come meet and possibly adopt the dog of interest. In addition, those who live in a rental property are expected to provide proof that they are allowed to have a dog where they live.

Each of our rescued dogs has been de-wormed if necessary, de-flea'd (with topical treatment if old enough, and by medicated bath if too young), spayed/neutered, microchipped, is up to date on shots, and has been fully examined by a veterinarian. In addition, each adopted dog comes with a starter baggie of the food it has been eating, a few treats for training purposes, a rawhide chew, a lead and collar, and a folder containing pertinent records.
