My story

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

This handsome little fella is BUGSY, a 7-8 pound, 2-3 year old Chihuahua mix. He is one of the sweetest little guys and absolutely loves most people. Bugsy enjoys being held and very much wants to be with family so he’d do best in a home where they are home more. This sweet boy loves to sleep next to his foster mom at night too. 
 
Bugsy does very well with other dogs but he’s more into people so he’s OK to be the only dog in the home where people are home during the day. He doesn’t play much with toys and is not a big barker - generally has only barks at critters while outside. Bugsy loves to run around the fenced in yard; he walks on a leash but can be a bit skittish. Bugsy has lived with cats and doesn't bother with them. He is approved for households with children 8 and above.
 
This dog has been examined by licensed veterinarians, provided inoculations, been tested for diseases, dewormed, spayed, and microchipped; he is housebroken and crate trained. ADOPTION APPLICATIONS ARE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST from acaringplace@comcast.net.

More about this rescue

A Caring Place, is an All Breed Dog Rescue organization that is exclusively foster based (no facility) and is volunteer run. We rescue dogs and puppies from animal control facilities, dog pounds, and other shelters where they are at risk of euthanasia. In addition we take in dogs surrendered by their owners who can or are no longer willing to care for their dog. Each dog this rescue takes in receives all medical care and treatment necessary to be healthy, and then place them into loving temporary homes (foster homes) until adopted. Without our foster care provider's, we could not save these dogs.

FOSTER CARE PROVIDERS are always needed!
