PLEASE READ ENTIRE POST AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION - DUSTY BREED - Chiweenie (Chihuahua/Dachshund mix) SIZE - About 12 pounds AGE - 4 years GENDER - Male MEDICAL CONCERNS - None known BEHAVIOR CONCERNS - None known SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS - Meet Dusty, a perfect little dog who came to us recently from a NC shelter where he was found as a stray! Not only is he adorable, but he is super sweet and very playful. Dusty is very loving, happy, and would love to become your perfect pet! He absolutely adores being with his human, and enjoys the company of other small dogs. Fully grown at just 12 pounds, he is a perfect size for most homes! Dusty is in good health, neutered, microchipped, and fully vaccinated. That said, he has tested positive for heart worms and we have begun the soft kill method of eradication as he is completely asymptomatic. This treatment is effective and all medications will accompany him to his new home! We are seeking a home with an adopter who has the ability to work from home or be at home a good part of each day to spend time with this amazing dog! A home without larger pets or small children, and with a fenced, secure yard will give Dusty the room to run and play safely. Dusty will likely make a great couch potato as well as a loving friend! Our adoption process starts with your email to carerescue@aol.com or Adopt a Pet inquiry. After we receive it, we will email you our prescreening questionnaire. Your answers will help us determine that your home and lifestyle matches the needs of Dusty and our adoption criteria. Once determined, we will set up a private meeting with your family and Dusty at a park near our private kennel just east of Richmond. After meeting him and determining that he matches your preferences for a pet, we will accept your application. A home visit by one of our trained volunteers is required for all adoptions, and we will speak with your vet to ensure that you are a responsible pet owner.

Story
PLEASE READ ENTIRE POST AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION - COLE Hi there, my name is Cole, and I'm an affectionate and playful young pup with a lot of love to give! Even though I'm still just a youngster, I already have so much love and energy packed into my little body. I am friendly, and I am sure that I will provide you with a lifetime of happiness. I'm definitely the boss when it comes to other dogs and I definitely like to eat alone, but I love people and I can't wait to find a family of my own to shower with love and wet kisses. My previous owner died and I was without her in the house and scared. I am ready for a new family to give me a second opportunity. If you choose to welcome me into your home, I promise to be the best pup-son you could ever ask for! I am already neutered, microchipped and I have had my first vaccines. The vets say I am in very good health! I need a home with a fenced yard and without larger animals to keep me safe, and I don't think being with little children would be my favorite thing. Our adoption process starts with your email to carerescue@aol.com or Adopt a Pet inquiry. After we receive it, we will email you our prescreening questionnaire. Your answers will help us determine that your home and lifestyle matches the needs of both Cole and our adoption criteria.

Even though I'm still just a youngster, I already have so much love and energy packed into my little body. I am friendly, and I am sure that I will provide you with a lifetime of happiness. I'm a small girl, still under ten pounds, and I may not get much larger at all, so I need a home without larger pets and small children who may accidentally hurt me. I also need a securely fenced yard and owners who have experience with very small dogs and keeping them safe. I can't wait to find a family of my own to shower with love and wet kisses. My previous owner died and I was without her in the house and scared. I am ready for a new family to give me a second opportunity. I am already spayed, microchipped and I have had my first vaccines.

Story
This extra-adorable little fellow is Clay, a friendly, affectionate, and gentle dog who loves nothing more than receiving kisses from his human friends. Despite his young age, Clay is a very calm and well-behaved dog who is always eager to please. He is a smart dog who is quick to learn and responds well to positive reinforcement and treats. Unfortunately, Clay's previous owner passed away, leaving him and four other small dogs alone, and searching for a new home and family. He is used to other small dogs, and also used to a quiet and predictable lifestyle, which is what we seek for him. Larger dogs and young children will ge concerning, and we place great emphasis on homes with private, fully fenced yards. Clay is in good health, neutered, microchipped and vaccinated. He tested negative for heart worms and is on prevention. Clay is a wonderful companion who is looking for a loving home where he can be showered with affection and care.

Story
Dante, Adult Male, 9 pounds, Richmond VA- Local Adoptions Only-SPECIAL NEEDS Meet Dante! This cutie patootie is a 23-month blue and tan Chihuahua that is looking for a very special family with Chi or small dog experience. Chihuahuas are tiny dogs with huge personalities and big dog attitude and this boy is no exception!! He LOVES playing with his toys and he loves being with his people. He loves to snuggle close and feel safe and he is a HUGE kisser to everyone he meets! He has the most expressive eyes so when he turns on the charm, you are putty in his paws! Dante responds well to positive training methods and never tires of hearing what a good boy he is, so we would recommend a basic training class to help with boundaries and structure for him as this clever boy will rule your household like a little Napoleon! (he is going to do that anyway) Dante does likes kids, but these little ones are not made for roughhousing and he can be possessive of his things sometimes, so an adult home for this boy is preferred. While they come across as tough, they are quite fragile and care has to be taken to keep them protected from harm, themselves, and the weather, especially the cold! Unfortunately, he is not a fan of coats or sweaters and will need a lot positive reinforcement (and lots of treats) when sporting outdoor gear. He does love his blankets though and likes to bury himself in them! Dante is crate trained, it’s like his little kingdom in there, and he eats in his crate. He can resource guard his food sometimes (although is doing much better) so having a safe place to eat is important for him. He is housebroken, but you do have to keep an eye on him especially if he has been playing a lot but he will try and let you know. He also loves to go for rides in the car and does well, but he would do best in car seat with a tie to keep him in place. Dante does not do well with other dogs and would prefer to rule your house alone and be your one and only! He is also not afraid to let other dogs know how he feels about them, so this little guy is going to need a family that has his back at all times and will make sure to keep him safe and out of trouble! He does love to go for an occasional short leash walk, but he needs his space from other dogs when out on the walk so a busy city home with lots of pet traffic is not the best for this little guy. This boy likes they laid back vibe of a suburban home with a fenced yard for the occasional romp and zoomies! That would make him the happiest! If you think Dante might be the one and only for you, please go to www.momsva.org and complete an application.
