My story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Please contact Denise (sharpeisnchihuahuas@msn.com) for more information about this pet.

Irene was dumped at the gate of a high kill shelter in WV one weekend. 

She is a sweet dog that deserves a family for the rest of her years. Poor Irene has been diagnosed with Cushing disease and will require cushings medication for the rest of her life. With her Cushing Irene pees alot very frequently. She needs someone that will take her out every couple hours to pee. She sometimes needs to pee in between so foster mom has xlarge size pee pads inside which  she will go on. Also the same with overnight. She can't hold it an entire night even though she is on meds. She is on 2 different kinds of meds and requires a test every couple months to make sure meds are regulated. 
She is so sweet and friendly. She walks perfectly on a leash. She likes to be petted and be with people. She is great with other dogs and pigs. 

** LOCAL CENTRAL PA APPLICATIONS ONLY **

Her adoption donation includes spaying, vaccinations, implanting of a microchip, application of flea meds and worming.

Irene is in foster care so please complete an application at our website (www.castawaycritters.org) before meeting her. Completing an application does not obligate you to adopt; however, it is required. Applications are processed in the order received in an effort to find the best match possible for both the dog and the adopter.
