America is a sweet little Chihuahua mix who loves everyone she meets. She does well with the other dogs in her foster home and just loves to snuggle up on her foster mom's lap. Due to America's size, she should go to a home with older, respectful children only. America is doing well with her housetraining and is crate trained. America is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, tested negative for heartworm & tick borne illnesses, started on heartworm & flea/tick prevention, and microchipped. She is estimated to be around 2 years old, she weighs 8 pounds, her adoption fee is $400 plus tax.

Prior to being rescued, many of our dogs have received limited socialization, so they may need extra time to adjust and settle in. Older children are often a great fit for our dogs, and family's with younger children will be considered based on each dog's individual needs. Skills like house training and leash walking may require a little extra patience and practice. However, with understanding and a gentle hand, most of our dogs adapt quite quickly. |
