My story

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

Meet Guapa! This adorable nugget is guessed to be about 8 years old and weighs 4.8 lbs. She is a wonderful little girl who likes attention from her person and enjoys sitting in your lap.

She gets along with other dogs, cats, and respectful kids. She does well with potty habits - she uses pads and will go outside. She can be a little reserved at first with new people, but warms up fairly quickly.

Not uncommon for her breed, Guapa has a grade III heart murmur. She had an echocardiogram, which showed severe mitral valve regurgitation and vets have prescribed her pimobendin and enalapril, which costs about $75 month. She will need routine monitoring by a cardiologist, so potential adopters need to be prepared for this expense and level of care.

Guapa's adoption donation of $475 helps cover the cost of her echocardiogram, vaccines, spay, dental, xrays, heartworm and tick disease testing, and microchip.

Adopters must live within a 1 hour driving distance from Romeoville, IL. Reference checks, vet checks, and home visits required. We do not do same-day adoptions. Email us with any questions info@perfectpooches.org. The application to adopt can be found under the "Adoption Process" tab on our website www.perfectpooches.org.

More about this rescue

A rescue organization dedicated to helping you locate and adopt your "perfect" pooch.
No one, or nothing, is perfect....this includes dogs, but we firmly believe that there is a "perfect" dog for everyone. This doesn't mean our dogs will not have accidents in the house, or bark at times you don't want them to, or chew on your good shoes. They are dogs and they will require training and structure, but their flaws make them truly unique, beautiful, and "perfect" for the right family.

Perfect Pooches Adoption Agency (PPAA) is dedicated to working with each family to ensure we try to find a dog that will be a match with your lifestyle, needs, and wants. If we do not currently have a dog that is a match we will do our best to help approved adopters locate a dog that would be a better fit.

Our pooches are rescue dogs that deserve a second chance. Please consider opening your heart and home to a new companion today!
