Here's what Suki's (now Kimi) new mom has to say about her first days at home:  Janie brought Kimi to us Thursday afternoon.  She is just a DELIGHT!  No problems with potty training at all..she is smart  but she doesn't bark.  Maybe after she gets comfortable she will at least let me know when she wants to come in after using potty outside in the courtyard.  She LOVES sleeping with us and stays on her blankie.  She is getting a bit more friskie when outside so we will get some toys to see if she wants to play.  No trouble eating either.  

Thanks again.  We love her...altho it looks as tho prefers me over my husband...as did Mini.  I told him he would have to change his perfume!! LOL   Hope you had a wonderful Mother's day!  Zita Aoki

Suki is a tri-colored (like a calico cat) Chinwa who is about 2.5 years old.  She is quiet and gentle but a little shy.  Needs a quiet home with excellent fencing.  OK with older kids and other toy dogs.

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.

We are ALL volunteers; there are NO paid employees in our rescue. The adoption fee is used to help with veterinary care. All of the dogs in our care are fully vetted, spayed/neutered, are up to date on all vaccines, are heartworm tested and kept on year round heartworm prevention. If they have tested positive for heartworm - they will be treated. Any and all medical issues that our vets find or that arise while in foster care are treated.

WE DO NOT ADOPT OUR DOGS TO HOMES WITH UNALTERED PETS...NO EXCEPTIONS!

In order to adopt one of these wonderful pups you will be required to: Fill out an adoption application, provide a veterinary reference, agree to a telephone/email screening, have one of our representatives conduct a home visit, complete and sign an adoption contract, and pay an adoption fee.

Please read about our detailed adoption policies and procedures (menu on left) before calling or emailing with questions.  Many of your questions can be answered by reading our information.  Keep in mind that the first step toward adoption is to fill out an application.  Also, WE DO NOT SHIP!
