Story
RCHS does not conduct DNA tests on dogs who enter our facility therefore we are unable to guarantee breed or breed mix. Information provided by shelter staff, volunteers, and veterinarians is used to give a best estimate as to a dog’s breed make up. We do our best to inform adopters about the potential breeds for each dog.We are a dog only facility so we do not know how most of our dogs will be with cats. Even if a dog is surrendered to us and said to be good with cats there is no way to be sure the dog will be good with your cats. We do have a 7 day foster-to-adopt program so that you can see how the dog interacts with your cats before adoption.

Story
Why have just one Chihuahua when you can have two? Boba Fett and Shy Shy are ready for adoption! Here is what we know about them...... They need each other. Shy Shy more so than Boba but they are definitely bonded. We know its a lot harder to adopt out bonded pairs but we will always do our very best to keep bonded pairs together. So, if you happen to be looking for two cute Chihuahuas, Boba Fett and Shy Shy are ready to go! Boba Fett loves attention and sitting on your lap. He has been in dog playgroups with all sized dogs but acts....Well, like a Chihuahua. 😉 He can be snappy and dominant with other dogs. He sure loves Shy Shy though! Boba Fett is approx. 1 yr old and weighs 10 lbs. Shy Shy is true to her name. But she loves her snacks and will comes out of her shell quickly when she sees you have a tasty treat. She is approx. 2 yrs old and weighs 8 lbs. Both dogs have been fixed, vaccinated, heartworm tested and dewormed. Their Ohio license is also included in their adoption fee.

Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Some of our Georgetown residents might remember Adel and her devoted owner taking walks around the neighborhood. Adele (Del-Del) is ready to find her forever home. This little one recently lost her dad when he unexpectedly passed away. She loved him as much as he loved her. She enjoyed their multiple daily walks around their neighborhood. Del is approximately 10 years young, weighs 14 pounds and is house trained. She totally ignores cats and does well with well behaved dogs (barking and growling scares her). Del loves fluffy beds and buries herself in bed pillows. If you know anyone interested in a sweet, long-legged, little chi please share. Applications can be found at bchsohio.org or just come to the shelter to pick one up. Adele is in foster but meet and greets can easily be arranged.
