Meet Owen — a January 2025–born Chihuahua–Pomeranian mix with big personality in a small package. He’s a high-energy firecracker who adores people and soaks up attention, cuddles, and training time. With other dogs and cats, Owen prefers his space—he’s best as an only dog.
What Owen’s looking for
Active humans for multiple short walks and daily play
Enrichment: tug/fetch, snuffle mats, food puzzles, quick training games
Consistent, positive-reinforcement training (puppy classes = bonus)
A secure home where he can be your one-and-only pet
If you want a cheerful companion who’ll keep you laughing and moving, Owen’s your tiny adventure buddy. ***Petfinder and Adopt-A-Pet inquiries are not monitored by Elmore SPCA*** **Shelter hours are Monday - Saturday, Noon to 4pm**
**Applications, as well as personal references may be electronically submitted from our website at www.elmorespca.org/adoptionapp.html. ** >>Due to the heavy load of adoption applications received processing of applications can take up to 7-14 business days.
