Story
Hi there, my name is Dominic! I'm a 3 year old, 11 lbs., neutered male Chihuahua mix. I'm a sweet little guy that likes to take his time getting to know new people. I may be shy to start off but once were friends, were friends 'till the end! I'm still working on my social skills and while I am it would be best if I was the only dog in the home at least for now. I'm a big fan of treats and they are definitely the way to my heart.  Dominic ID#A975298Unless 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
She is a Chihuahua mix and will be turning 4 in March. She weighs about 9 pounds. She is not altered but I hope her new ones will get her fixed. Shes very sweet and affectionate, but she is also skittish and doesn't get along well with other dogs or cats. She would be best suited for someone who works from home, is retired, or has a schedule that ensures someone is home with her. She doesn't bark much(will if someone knocks on the door) but she does whine when she's frustrated. She enjoys playing fetch with her favorite ball, chewing her rawhides, and cuddling. She's crate trained and enjoys laying in her kennel. She is a big love bug. She's really expressive and animated. She's truly the most adorable thing on the planet. She will come with food, bowls, raw hides, kennel with bed and blankets, harness, collar, leash, two carrying bags, puppy pads, Pet Genie w/bags (for puppy pads), a car seat, her toys, and a recent copy of her vaccination records. A small rehoming fee will apply.

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
Marzi is a petite 9-lb Chihuahua mix looking for a patient, understanding home. She has been through a lot of change and is still learning to trust.. She can be affectionate, smart, and full of love on her own terms. She enjoys daily walks and beach outings, where she loves to explore and can be found playing with her foster sister, Zara a toy poodle. Marzi is food-motivated and knows several commands like sit, down, stay, and wait. She has been working hard on her house-training and has made progress adapting to new routines. She thrives on positive reinforcement and consistency. Marzi can be shy/reactive around strangers, other dogs, loud noises, or when she feels her space is invaded. Because of this, she needs an adult-only home with adopters who are experienced with anxious dogs. She takes daily medication (Prozac and Trazodone) that helps her stay calm. She would do best in a quieter environment. Ideally, she will do best in an environment where she is the only dog.

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. Pip was found abandoned in a box with his best friend, Squeak — two tiny souls who stuck together through it all. Now this gentle little fellow, with his darling deer face and soulful eyes, is ready to find the loving home he’s always deserved. 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 adores cuddling up with Squeak in their crate. 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 and Squeak don’t have to be adopted together, but it would make both their little hearts so happy if they could stay side by side. Whether he joins your family solo or with his best girl, one thing’s for sure: Pip may be small enough to fit in your arms, but he’ll fill your heart to the brim with love.
