Story
11 years old. Wiggles is not good with cats and I would not trust him with small children. He had a spinal injury several months ago and is fully recovered, however the vet recommended he stay on medication to keep his spine stable, the medication is gabapentin and costs about $27/month. Wiggles had a big dog companion for 8years and he adored her so he would probably be fine with another big dog, I am uncertain about other small dogs. Wiggles is also a barker, which is common for his breed.

Hi, my name is Prissy!!! I am an energetic, GORGEOUS Chi-mix who is looking for a new furever home. I would do well with a family with older children or someone who is home and looking for some great company. I am good at coexisting with cats, and small dogs & have even given kisses to a guinea pig! Crate trained & Housebroken? Check and check! I am great on a leash & love to hand with my Chiweenie foster brother! One of my favorite activities is chewing on a bone. Adorable? Yep, that’s me! I tilt my head when listening to my foster mom. I want her to know that I am paying attention! I am a curious little lady who loves to cuddle and am looking for a spot of my own right next to YOU! My foster family says I am a big love bug in a small package! If you would like to meet me, please fill out a preadoption application and a CDR volunteer will get back to you just as quick as they can! Smooches!!! Prissy

Story
Hello! My name is Churro and I am a sweet and loving four-year-old Chihuahua who would make a wonderful addition to any family. Despite my small size, I have a big personality and am full of energy and affection. I am great around children and other dogs and love to play and explore. However, my world has changed a lot in a short amount of time and I do suffer from some separation anxiety, a home where someone is usually around would be best for me. My foster family says I am an incredibly loyal companion and am always eager to please, making me an ideal furry friend. I truly love nothing more than curling up on a lap for a good snooze, so if you're looking for a furry lapdog, look no further than ME!  If you're interested in adopting Churro, please fill out a pre-adoption application and a CDR volunteer will get back to you just as quick as they can! Cuddles and kisses-Churro
