No Energy Level: Moderate-High Adoption Fee: $320.00 Any other info: Meet Rizzo: A Loyal Heart Searching for His Safe Haven. Sometimes, love isn't enough to make the world feel safe. Rizzo—affectionately known as Rizz—has spent his life navigating that delicate balance between fierce loyalty and quiet fear. At just five years old, he has already known both the joy of a family and the heartbreak of being returned to the shelter. He loves deeply, but his anxious heart needs patience, understanding, and a home where he can finally breathe easy. Rizzo is a compact little guy with an endearing, robust frame and the silliest ears you've ever seen. His personality is a contradiction in the best way—loving yet guarded, affectionate yet cautious. With the people he trusts, he is a devoted companion, ready to shower them in warmth and love and wiggles his whole body in excitement. Plus, he loves but scratches and leaning into you for comfort. But with strangers, his fear takes hold, and he needs time, space, and reassurance to find his confidence again. He is protective, not aggressive—his heart simply demands safety before he can fully open up. A calm, child-free home is what Rizzo needs most. He is a dog who loves hard, who bonds deeply, and who, even now in the shelter, is surprising everyone with his resilience. He’s doing better than expected, but there’s one thing he can’t shake—the struggle to eat unless someone he loves is nearby. That alone speaks volumes about how much he craves companionship, stability, and the comfort of a home that finally understands him. While Rizzo’s love for his humans is unquestionable, we’re not sure how he would do with other animals at this time. He may thrive as an only pet, or he may open up in the right environment. What we do know is that he needs patience, a steady routine, and a family willing to help him feel secure. Rizz is 5 years old, neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and on prevention here with us. He is also taking some daily medication to help his anxiety here in the shelter and may or may not need to stay on that in his home as well. Rizzo has so much potential. He isn’t broken—he’s simply searching for the right person to help piece together his confidence, one moment at a time. If you’ve ever wished for a companion who would love you with unwavering loyalty, Rizzo is waiting for you. He just needs someone willing to meet him where he is and show him that safety and love can go hand in hand. He’s ready to leave the shelter. He’s ready to learn. He’s ready to love. Are you ready to give him his second chance? If Rizzo’s story speaks to you, please reach out today—he’s waiting for his forever home. Apply through the link below and our adoptions team will get in touch with you. https://form.jotform.com/201977724595065 Once your application is processed and approved, our adoptions team will reach out to schedule an in person meet and greet with Rizzo. ------------------------------------------------ Our adoption fees include the pets spay or neuter, microchip, up to date vaccines, heartworm/tick disease testing and fecal check. All adoption fees can be found on our groups' Petfinder page. The first step to our adoption process is to please fill out and adoptions application, it can be found on our website www.serenityanimalhospital.net, under the "Adopt From Us" Tab. Please email the application to adoptions@serenityanimalhospital.net or drop it off in person during our business hours.

We do our best to provide information that will help determine if the animal might be a good fit for you. Please note that behaviors may change in a home environment. We also ask our applicants to assume that any animal they adopt from us will need to be potty-trained and learn house manners, although this is not always the case. In most cases, the listed breeds are also a best guess. Our online animal bios are designed to provide as much information as possible and answer some anticipated questions. We do not have the resources to respond to emails with more specific questions.We are receiving an unusually high number of applications at this time! Applications are reviewed as they are received, but we do not select adopters on a first-come basis. Our job is to ensure each pet is placed into the best fit home for them and that adopters are paired with an animal that is a good fit for their lifestyle. All animals will stay online until they are “pending adoption”. Therefore, if an animal is still listed, we are still accepting applications for him/her! Please do not send inquiries about a specific animal's availability as this can change quickly over the course of the day. The fastest way to get a response is to simply submit an application! We will do our best to notify you by email if the pet(s) you are interested in are no longer available. New animals are posted daily, so please let us know if another furry friend peaks your interest (there is no need to fill out a second application)! Fill out the application (DOG:https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=dr1937&method=online_form_html&formid=44, CAT: https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=dr1937&method=online_form_html&formid=41, EXOTICS: https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=dr1937&method=online_form_html&formid=46) completely.

It could take up to a couple of weeks for you to receive a final disposition on your application so there is no need to check on the status.-Introductions will be scheduled by appointment only, 30 minutes per appointment. The entire household, including current dogs, must be present for the appointment. (Note: Please do not bring your dogs if you are meeting cats!). The introductions will take place outside in our parking lot (or in our cat room if you're meeting cats).-We will perform vet checks for current and prior pets in the household.-Finalizing the adoption will also be scheduled by appointment.Thank you for your understanding.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Mwanna is a very sweet, 8 year old chihuahua.  She is blind but gets around fairly well once she learns the lay out. She is friendly and loves to be around people. She is happy to snuggle on the couch. She is very calm and rarely barks unless she is locked up away from people.  She can’t see so even if you are nearby, she can’t tell, so she calls out for you. She is working on housebreaking.  She goes potty outside if taken out on a regular basis and does use piddle pads.  She is very fond of her daughter, Delilah.  It would be nice if they could stay together. With love and attention, Mwanna would make a perfect pet.
