Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. PUMPKIN AND RUBY (and Benji their Brother) Italian Greyhound-Chihuahua mix sisters. Background Ruby, Benji, and Pumpkin are siblings who were rescued from certain death at the Flagstaff Arizona shelter that serves 3 huge Native American Reservations surrounding the shelter. They are often overcrowded and understaffed and under utilized for adoptions. The shelter depends heavily on rescue groups Like Rompin Paws to save Lives. Ruby, and Pumpkin are gorgeous bonded siblings who need to be adopted together. If the family has the room, we would love Benji to stay with his sisters if Possible as they have been together all their lives. (If nothing else, the girls need to stay together). The girls are very affectionate and love to cuddle. Pumpkin is silly and playful while Ruby is a bit more serious; however, they love to chase each other and will do well in a home with an enclosed yard. Both girls are interested in squeaky toys, roasted vegetable treats, and fast-paced walks. In their quiet time, they are often cuddled up together. They will be introverted for the first couple of weeks in their new home and family until they feel safe, then they will begin to venture out and seek companionship from their new humans. with patience, these girls will thrive! Their foster humans have leash-trained them and they are walked several times a day. as Italian Greyhound mixes, they thrive on exercise and really need to have their daily walks and not just a yard to run in. Ruby is ~12lbs Pumpkin is ~7lbs Benji is~15 lbs What They Need Typical of a Chihuahua mix, both girls are Very protective of their humans and do not behave well with other dogs and are not quick to trust other humans. This is also due to a long stint at an overcrowded shelter and the fears they went through and being dumped by their human in a cardboard box. When they eat you have to keep an eye to make sure Ruby doesn't finish eating and then make her way to sharing the rest of Pumpkin's meal. These sweet girls require an adult-only home that does not receive visitations from Children and no children reside in the home. They need a quieter environment 1-2 long walks a day, playtime in their yard, cuddles, and lots of UNCONDITIONAL love, patience and zero expectations of them. How Can You Meet Them Ruby and Pumpkin have been transitioned to a human-grade diet that avoids kibble in place of a healthy canine-specific feeding regimen. We will educate their adopters on proper diet and nutrition. To apply to adopt the sisters, they have an adoption fee of $950.00 for Rubie and Pumpkin or 1,425.00 for all three siblings. All monies will be recycled to cover medical care and rescue more dogs.
