I’m a handsome senior boy... you might even say I’m a silver fox. Even though I’m a chihuahua. I’m pretty happy to meet new people: if you sit down, I’ll probably crawl right into your lap! But being an older guy, I’m pretty confident in what I want... and if I’m uncomfortable, I’ll let you know. Even though it’s chilly outside, I still like going for walks! I’m looking for a family who will spoil me in my golden years and respect my communication.
MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES… CHILDREN: No, I’ve never spent much time with kids and am looking for a calm retirement home. OTHER DOGS: No, other dogs stress me out. I am looking to be the only dog. CATS: Potentially, I’ve not lived with a cat before but with a cat used to living with dogs, we should be ok. FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: Potentially, if you have knowledge or experience of small breeds and senior needs. FENCED-IN YARD: Not necessary. HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: Any. SOMEONE HOME MOST OF THE DAY: Not necessarily, though I do love to snuggle my human so I might not enjoy being alone for too long.
SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME… ACTIVITY LEVEL: Low. HOUSE-TRAINED: No. I still commonly eliminate in the home and don’t reliably use pee pads.
If you think I would make a good match for your home, please click the `Adopt Me` button to apply!

More about this shelter
For 125 years, the Guelph Humane Society has been dedicated to protecting and caring for the many animals with whom we share our community and our lives, and to fostering the important bonds with animals that enrich us as individuals, families and communities. Founded in 1893, the Guelph Humane Society provides care and shelter for more than 3,000 homeless, stray, injured, and abused animals each year throughout Guelph and Wellington County.
Our programs are delivered by an enthusiastic team of staff with many years of experience in animal care and welfare. In addition to paid staff, we are lucky to have over 400 active volunteers who provide thousands of hours of service each year and generously share their skills and ideas.
The Guelph Humane Society has a strong working relationship with local, provincial, and national animal welfare organizations; local school boards; the City of Guelph; Township of Centre Wellington; Township of Guelph-Eramosa; local veterinarians; the Ontario Veterinary College Health Sciences Centre at the University of Guelph; and Guelph Police Services and the Provincial Crown Attorney’s Office. We are an affiliate society of the Ontario SPCA, and proud member of the Canadian Federation of Humane Societies (CFHS).
Our organization is guided by a Board of Directors made up of volunteers with a wide range of skills and business experience. The Board also convenes several ad hoc committees, which work to address specific issues. Day-to-day operations of the shelter are managed by the Executive Director and senior staff with the Board’s general guidance.
We are a registered charitable, non-profit organization that does not receive government funding. As such, we depend on your donations and private funding to support our important work. The Guelph Humane Society charitable registration number is 119236305RR0001.
