Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Tony is a handsome little chihuaua who came to SFCR as a breeder release. Tony is such a funny little guy - he loves toys including nylabones that are as big as he is. He mingles well with the other dogs in his foster home, for the most part. Every once in awhile he gets a little hot and bothered by other male dogs but nothing too serious. Tony is doing very well with going #2 outside but wears a belly band inside because he is still learning not to mark in the house. ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS: Physically fenced in yard to keep him safe - no invisible fences. Leash/harness walking is still a work in progress. Small breed resident dog preferred. Adult home or home with older, respectful children only (12+). Tony has been neutered and had a dental with multiple extractions (including 3 of his canine teeth). He tested negative for heartworm & tick-borne disease, is current on vaccinations & monthly preventatives, and microchipped. His adoption fee is $400 plus tax. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.*All SFCR dogs are current on age-appropriate vaccinations (rabies, distemper, bordetella, and lepto), spayed/neutered (if at least 6 months of age), tested for heartworm & tick-borne disease, receive dentals if needed, are started on preventatives for heartworm and fleas/ticks, and microchipped. Prior to being rescued, many of our dogs have received minimal 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. Being a part of their rehabilitation is a truly rewarding experience. January 24, 2025, 8:48 pm
