Story
Hi there! My name is Estelle and I'm an 8-year-old, spayed Chihuahua that currently weighs about 10lbs. I'm a friendly older lady that still has some pep in my step! I sometimes start off on the timid side, but I warm up to people quickly. To be honest, I prefer the company of humans to other dogs but could get along with a dog friend if they are small and mellow like me. I'm looking to live the retirement life. I enjoy napping in the sun, going for strolls, and being pampered by my humans. I still enjoy running around the yard every now and then when I'm not busy being a lap warmer. If you would like more information about me, just ask Customer Service about Estelle ID# A978066Unless otherwise indicated, adoptable animals are located at our Lantos Center for Compassion at 1450 Rollins Road, Burlingame, CA 94010.  You may call us at 650-340-7022 to schedule an appointment, or just drop by.

Story
I am a 76 year old woman with a 2 year old toy poodle. She has some impulse control and other behavior issues and needs a lot of work. May 30th, my dear friend and roommate died unexpectedly. I rescued her 3 year old chihuahua.Since Mars was only trained on pee pads, was unmanageable on walks, and exhibited growly and snappy behavior as is common to Chihuahuas, I was afraid that she was unadoptable. I did not want her to be killed. Since May, we have made great strides with 2 sessions with a professional trainer and lots of time on my part. This dog is now completely trained to go potty outside. I have also found easy and gentle ways to circumvent her refusals to put on a harness, which had been my major difficulty. And during walks, her behavior of barking at other dogs has improved by at least 75%. I find it too hard to carry on with the stress and care of two manageable but time and energy intensive dogs. Plus, I have had 2 dog-related loss of balance and falls with 1 injury.

Story
Meet Pip — one tiny, tiny little man with a heart far bigger than his 4 pounds! To say he’s precious hardly begins to describe him. Because he’s so small, Pip can be a bit shy when he first meets new people, but once he feels safe, he’ll melt right into you and happily curl up in your lap. He’s a quiet, tender- hearted boy who does beautifully with other gentle dogs and cats, and adores cuddling up with you. Pip is potty trained, crate trained, and even manages stairs like a pro! He’d thrive best in a calm, low-to-moderate energy home with someone who understands how to care for a tiny dog. Pip may be small enough to fit in your arms, but he’ll fill your heart to the brim with love.
