Story
Chip Dip is a 3 yr old neutered male Xoloitzcuintle/Chihuahua.  He weighs 4#.  In his 3 years he has already lived in 2 homes (plus 2 foster homes).  We are looking for a home that is committed to providing a lifetime of love & care.  Chip has a condition called dry eye.  He needs 2 medications daily to help simulate tear production and replace his tear film.  He will need these for the rest of his life; without this false tear production his eyes will become extremely dry and susceptible to ulcers or even worse.  He gets Optixcare Eye Lube Plus (3-4x/day) & Optimmune daily (2x/day) for his dry eye along with Optixcare Eye Cleaner (1-2x/day).  You may want to contact your veterinarian for a quote on prices to ensure Chip's needs are within your budget.  We do not want him to go without his meds; compound meds might be an option but you will want to do research.  He is used to getting drops in his eyes & does well with it.  Hairless dogs do require a little more maintenance than you would think.  Their bodies need protection from dramatic changes in temperature, with the use of clothing in the colder temps, and a pet friendly sunscreen when out in the sun.  Frequent baths with a hypoallergenic shampoo are recommended to help hydrate the skin and remove the debris accumulated from not having a protective coat.  We would love to find him a home that has experience with hairless breeds or a home that has done research. Chip really just wants to nap &/or be with his person.  He has done well with cats and dogs.  While he hasn't been overly playful with other dogs he seems to co-exist well with other calm dogs.  Chip is still working on house training and will need continued training to help him with this.  He does really well with peeing on potty pads.  He will go outside if it's a nice day out.  Chip would do best being with someone that can make sure he goes potty every couple of hours to avoid accidents.  He will need a fenced in yard &/or a small corral for outside potty time. Chip Dip is fully vetted until December 2025, microchipped, neutered, & on heartworm prevention and will come with his eye medications to get his new owner started.  Applications for adoption are at www.trackingintheshadows.com.  Please live within 1 hour of Elkhart, IN.  Please be ready to take him home in 1-3 days after application approval. *We do not accept electric/underground fences. All dogs & cats in the home must be spayed/neutered & up to date on core vaccines & preventatives in order for your application to be approved.* ##1852139##

Story
LEONARDIn Foster HomeDo you have room in your heart for a special-needs dog? We can tell from the way he bobs his head when stressed and circles and spins when he is excited that he has something unique going on in his little head. If we had to guess his breed, we think a terrier mix with maybe some Boston terrier, chihuahua or French bulldog in there. Leonard loves the company of other dogs and would make a great playmate for a dog who enjoys a good game of chase or wrestling. He really needs another dog around in order to be happy. Leonard has come a long way toward being potty trained, given ample opportunities to go outdoors. He also is using potty pads indoors. He has a beautiful shiny blue coat which makes him stand out from the pack. He likes to hang out with the people without having to sit on a lap or be cuddled too much. He seems to be mesmerized by things daily and is always cocking his head in the cutest way. His foster mom works from home and he LOVES that. If you have dreams of him being an obedience champion, you’ll have to let those go. He really is a very simple fella who just wants a good home with a playful dog or two and some people who will be around a lot and let him be who he is. DOB 3/15/22 18 PoundsI'm waiting for a home to call my own. email webmaster@petrefuge.com to learn more about me or fill out an application at https://www.petrefuge.com/adoptPet Refuge was formed in 1978 to help with cats and dogs in need of homes.
