Dolly & Peanut were rescued from an 'unwanted litter' (& Mom/Dolly & Dolly's sister, 'Peanut') situation, in Rutherford County, NC. Their past owners had too many(NOT exactly a 'hoarder' situation', but more than the very compassionate, loving senior couple wanted to live out their twilight years with) so asked Howlin4Spirit to help all the pups get their necessary medical needs taken care of and find them safe, responsible, loving homes.
Dolly is a Papillion/ChihuahuaX, weighing 9lbs. She's a LOVER and an excellent 'watch dog'. We are looking for a somewhat active woman who works from home or an early retiree. Sweet, friendly and outgoing. Wants your lap to be her World and to be your little 'look out' for scary things/people. Devoted and gentle.
Peanut 'appears' to be a Chihuahua/Doxie/JackRussellX. We see no Papillon in her, however. Past owners said 'Chiweenie', but her coarse scruffy muzzle and coat and color tells us a little differently. She weighs 12lbs and is a little shy, but warms up quickly to kind, calm and gentle handling which allows her to become sweetly trusting and loving.
Crate-trained for nights and piddle-pad trained for days, which is excellent for apartment-life, especially if you need to go out for any extended period.
However, they are only 1yo so require at least 2 walks daily for proper exercise.
adoption fee: $225 each or $400/both girls(includes spay, micro-chip, DA2PP, Bordatella and Rabies vax, current on heart-worm and flea/tick prevention, parasite-free, current health certificate, Martindale collar and 6' leash, current health certificate, chew toy, knee cap bone and 'rescued dog' car magnet.
These pups are in and will remain in foster care in Rutherfordton, NC until their adoptive families are found and approved.
We will be happy to send more pix and videos, upon request.

Howlin4Spirit Companion Animal REScue and senior Hound Sanctuary has given Rutherford County, NC residents an alternative to taking their unwanted pets to Rutherford Co, NC's ONLY animal facility, a 'high-kill' Animal Control(run by the Sheriff's Dept and inmates from a local minimum-security prison). We have rescued over 8.400 dogs, 3 stray cats and 1 pitiful pony, since January, 2004.
