My story

Meet Benjamin! Benjamin is an adorable little senior who loves to be loved. He has the cutest little face and one-up and one-down ears. Benjamin gets along great with other dogs, knows his sit command, and is a well-behaved sweetheart.

Benjamin must be adopted to a home with another dog and someone who is home most of the time. He has anxiety and does not like to be alone.

Benjamin is 16-years-old and weighs approximately 12-lbs. Benjamin is up to date on shots, neutered, microchipped, and had blood work and dental done.

Adoption process includes application, interview, home visit, contract and donation.

We do not adopt out of state.

Why adoption is a great option

Benjamin, a Rancho Palos Verdes Chihuahua dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Chihuahua for sale in Rancho Palos Verdes, or seeking a Chihuahua dog from a breeder in Rancho Palos Verdes.

  1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in Rancho Palos Verdes already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
  2. On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Rancho Palos Verdes breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
  3. You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Chihuahua breeders who help with Chihuahua rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Rancho Palos Verdes paves the way for another one to be saved.
