My story

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

MEET PETER!

With age comes wisdom and Peter has many life skills. His foster describes him as calm and curious and affectionate. He`d love to spend time by your side, dreaming and cuddling. He is rock solid reliable in his house-training and knows how to communicate his needs. While chihuahuas are often thought of as high strung and noisy, Peter is neither. His coat is luxurious and soft but he`s not a big shedder. He has excellent energy and walks very well on leash with another dog. He has even lived succesfully with other respectful cats and dogs!

My friends describe me as: Communicative, Chill, Gentle

Peter is currently up to date on all vaccinations, has been spayed/neutered, microchipped and seen by our vet team.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The Animal Rescue League of Boston is committed to matching adoptable animals with a permanent home.

We require the following as part of the adoption process:
* Adopter must be 18 years of age or older
* Have a conversation with an ARL adoption counselor
* A photo of the cage your pet will live in, if adopting a small animal or bird

More about this shelter

Pets are family. This belief is at the heart of everything we do at the Animal Rescue League of Boston.

We are the first female-founded animal welfare organization in Massachusetts and are proud to carry on a legacy of kindness and compassion, helping more than 20,000 animals annually since 1899.

Recognized for our innovative, award-winning programs that go beyond sheltering, we address the root causes of the issues facing animals and the people who love them.

By partnering with communities, we help animals heal and thrive, keep pets and people together, and protect animals from harm.

Because there is no government funding for this important work, animals must rely on people like you to get the care they need, when they need it most, 365 days a year.
