My story

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

Thank you, for caring enough to consider adopting a rescued pup in need of love, respect and a warm place to lay it's head fur-ever.

PLEASE, copy and paste the application provided below into a new email, answer each question thoroughly, and send to howlin4spirit@gmail.com

This pup is in and will remain in foster care in Rutherfordton, NC until they are spayed & neutered and ready to go to their fur-ever families.

Upon request, we will be happy to send you more videos and pictures of this pup interacting with her H4S buddies, to help you get a better understanding of their personality and activity level and how they interact with their people and other pups.

Papillon/Chihuahua/DachshundX...mother is a DOLLY, Papillon/ChihuahuaX(also available for adoption)..daddy is a Chiweenie(Chi/miniDachshund)X...YET!
