My story

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

Hi there! My name is Leroy and this cow print guy with me is my brother/best friend Patches. We are two year old chihuahuas. We came to Pet Search by no fault of our own. Our parents were elderly and could no longer care for us physically or financially. We love running in the fenced in yard with our foster-siblings and snuggling on the couch with everyone. Our foster mama says our puppy-kiss attacks make her day. We also don't mind the kitties in the house. We are potty trained outside as well as pad trained. We are trying to work on our leash skills since we never had those prior to coming to Pet Search. We are extremely frightened of cages/crates but are perfectly well behaved in a room closed off with a gate if you give us something comfy to lay on. We love long naps in the sun too. We are figuring out what toys are and really enjoying tugging and fetch. We are a bonded pair but if you give us a chance and a little patience we will be your best snuggle buddies for life!

More about this rescue

Pet Search is an all-volunteer, non-euthanizing rescue and placement service that has been in Washington County since 1985. Pet Search's philosophy is that all pets deserve a second chance for a hoe and love. Pet Search has chosen not to use a shelter-type environment with kennels and cages, but perfers to "home shelter" animals with volunteers in private homes. Pet Search is a privately funded organization, relying on the generousity of fellow animal lovers.
Pet Search provides the following programs:
* Animal Rescue and Placement/ Adoptions
* Fundraising
* Homeless and Feral Cat Trapping (aluminum recycling is used to fund this program)
* Humane Education
* Pet Therapy
* Rabies Plus Clinic- Low Cost inoculations (three times a year)
* Community Service Opportunities for students
* Other Public service programs, such as the Blessing of the Animals in October
FOSTER HOMES AND VOLUNTEERS ALWAYS WELCOME!!!
