Harry

Chihuahua Jack Russell Terrier

Oakland, NJ

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Harry!This adorable 8 month old pup was living in a car with his mom and brother when their owner lost their housing. He's a little timid at first but a sweet playful puppy who warms up quickly and is a lot of fun. He loves other dogs and would love a more confident doggie brother or sister. His mom is a tiny 8lbs chihuahua believe it or not, and we are going to guess dad is a bigger maybe bully breed or terrier mix of some kind. Harry is about 13lbs and probably won't grow too much bigger. His mom has significant heart disease that is likely congenital and he does have a very mild heart murmur- he's getting more of a work up to see how significant it is but will need regular vet visits likely to monitor his progress as he ages. Please submit an application to meet Harry! Primary Color: Brindle Weight: 13 Age: 0yrs 8mths 2wks

Story

Meet Whisper!This sweet tiny chi girl is looking for a local foster until she's ready to be adopted. She's only 8lbs and while her teeth are white and make her seem younger, her white face and heart condition make her seem older than she is. Whisper has a significant heart murmur and is on 2 heart medications longterm, and should get echos rechecked 1-2 times a year to follow her condition's progress. She's a sweet cuddly girl, loves other small dogs, and still hopes to have a lot of living to do with her new parents. Please submit a foster application to give her a temporary place to crash for a few weeks, or an adoption application to make her a permanent family member Primary Color: Tan Secondary Color: White Weight: 8 Age: 5yrs 0mths 2wks

Chihuahua Shiba Inu

Story

Abandoned with a Broken Heart:(Literally, this sweet but confused senior was brought to animal control and never claimed. He doesn't hear or see too well but bonds quickly and is a sweet sensitive boy who loves short walks and attention. His medical work-up revealed a heart murmur and significant heart disease- he's not in heart failure just yet but getting there. He's on 3 medications longterm to hopefully keep that from happening for as long as possible, but we don't know how long that will be. We are hoping to find him a quiet home in which to retire and enjoy whatever quality time he has. He's not too fond of other dogs and would probably prefer to be an only pet or have his own separate area away from others. Please submit an application to meet Tyler Primary Color: Tan Age: 12yrs 3mths 2wks
