These poor babies were hours from being euthanized along with their mom in a central California shelter. There are so many chihuahuas and chi mixes bing bred that there are not enough homes to go around. The result is that these poor animals suffer.
Lucy is named after another famous redheaded Lucy, who always seemed to find trouble if it didn't find her first! This little Lucy is the most adventurous and independent of the litter and the only girl. She really gives her brothers a run for their money! She is the most vocal and was the first of the bunch to bark. She evens barks before she goes potty, so maybe she'll be easy to housetrain! Even though she's independent, she loves and craves human companionship and would like to have someone who was home most of the day. She's a little red fawn girl whose eyes are turning green! She's going to be gorgeous.
The ideal home for these pups would be with a family who was home most or all of the day, with another small dog to play with, and no young children under 5.
These pups are paper/pad trained. They have also experienced the outdoors and love to roam in the backyard. They are have shiny coats and are eating dry and canned puppy food.
By the time they are adopted they will have had appropriate shots to date, 3 dewormings, medical check up, and flea treatment.We expect each new adopter to prepay their spay/neuter at the vet of their choice, and provide documentation of this at the time of adoption. Their adoption fee is $150.
WE DO NOT ADOPT OUR DOGS TO HOMES WITH UNALTERED PETS...NO EXCEPTIONS! WHY? CLICK ON SPAY/NEUTER ON THE LEFT HAND MENU.
In order to adopt one of these wonderful pups please see the side menu.
Adoption fees include spay/neuter, vaccinations, flea treatment, heartworm test and preventative, wormings, and all other medical care needed to ensure a healthy dog. Fees vary, based on the care required, age and needs of the animal. We rely strictly on our adoption fees since we don't receive any outside funding.
The adoption fees we require do not cover the medical expenses, let alone the daily cost of taking care of the dogs we hope to re-home. Additional expenses are out-of-pocket.
