Very loving pup, loves dogs and kids.The adoption fee covers the spay at our vet, microchip with lifetime registration, vaccinations (which include DHLPPC, Lyme, Bordetella & Rabies) dewormings and heartworm/lyme testing. If you are out of the area, you would be responsible to complete the vetting that has not been completed by the time of adoption.Spanx is participating in the cell dog program which is where the dog stays at the prison with a dog handler working on basic obedience and house, crate, and leash training.

Story
Meet Cher! 💕Cher is a 5-month-old black and white Chihuahua mix weighing around 8 pounds—and she’s every bit the spunky puppy she looks like. This little girl is playful, curious, and full of personality, with just the right amount of sass to keep things interesting.Cher is friendly and affectionate with people of all ages and does well with other dogs, especially those she knows. She loves playing fetch, adores her watermelon squeaky toy, and isn’t afraid to use her voice now and then—but she quiets easily. She’s crate trained, calm for grooming, and knows how to come when called. While she’s still learning leash skills and working on outside potty training (currently pee-pad trained), she’s making great progress.Energetic and fun, Cher would be a great fit for an active home ready to enjoy all the joys of a puppy. If you’re looking for a small dog with a big personality, Cher might be your perfect match! 🐾💗Give us a call at (740) 314-5583 for more information!ADOPTION APPLICATION:All adoption applications are completed at the shelter unless otherwise noted.FOSTER APPLICATION:Want to be a hero for a homeless animal in need?

Story
Hi there! My name is Leroy and this cow print guy with me is my brother/best friend Patches. We are two year old chihuahuas. We came to Pet Search by no fault of our own. Our parents were elderly and could no longer care for us physically or financially. We love running in the fenced in yard with our foster-siblings and snuggling on the couch with everyone. Our foster mama says our puppy-kiss attacks make her day. We also don't mind the kitties in the house. We are potty trained outside as well as pad trained. We are trying to work on our leash skills since we never had those prior to coming to Pet Search. We are extremely frightened of cages/crates but are perfectly well behaved in a room closed off with a gate if you give us something comfy to lay on. We love long naps in the sun too. We are figuring out what toys are and really enjoying tugging and fetch. We are a bonded pair but if you give us a chance and a little patience we will be your best snuggle buddies for life!

Story
Hi there! Leroy and Patches checking in! We are still available and waiting for our forever family. In the meantime, our foster mom and dad have figured out a lot of stuff by getting to know us better.We are bonded brothers who came to PetSearch by no fault of our own. Our original parents no longer could care for us due their age and health. We love to run free in a fenced in yard - we are weirded out by collars, harness and leashes (foster mom has tried everything- she can wrestle a collar onto us and walk us about 5 min until we back out of our collars) so a fenced in yard would be best for us. We would love someone who's home most of the day but short times alone are just fine with us too! We love our foster brothers/sisters and kitties but crave more attention than we get here since we have to share with a lot of them! We want most of the snuggles, love, and attention. We would be best in a house with no other dogs - but We are good with other small dogs as long as they aren't confrontational. Patches wants to be the boss and protects Leroy with all his brotherly love - these two are inseparable and will snuggle and play all day with each other and with humans, but they're couch potatoes at heart. Our foster mama says our puppy-kiss attacks make her day. We are scared of cages for long periods of time but ok for a couple hours, a closed off room is perfect for us but you've gotta leave give us something comfy to lay on. We are outside and pee-pad trained with the occasional accident (chihuahuas have small bladders) we are good with children 10-up and like a calm environment as we get worried and worked up with new surroundings and noise - Due to this, Previous chihuahua experience preferred but all are welcome to apply. We do come on command and most times will stay when told to. Leroy catches treats in his mouth and will try anything for food! If you give us a chance and a little patience we will be your best snuggle buddies for life!Apply for us at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/PAPS/Dog KL#03301 Washington PA 15301
