My story

Sammy has been returned to SOS due to his former adopter having health issues and unable to provide him the attention he needs. Sammy is a super sweet senior! He's very cuddly and loves to be with his person. Sammy ignores cats and likes dogs. He prefers his humans to be adult females. He has snapped at men and children. Sammy is potty trained, crate trained, and a very good listener.

Why adoption is a great option

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

  1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in Va Beach 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 Va Beach 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 Va Beach paves the way for another one to be saved.
