Chihuahua - Snowball Owen - Small - Senior - Male - Dog
I'm Still Spunky Like Betty White! Snowball was born about March 27, 2001 and weighs about 15 lbs. This cute little bugger was left at a high kill shelter because the owner could no longer have them. They said he's a little shy, but a really nice little dog and he listens well. Snowball is good on leash and did well on the long car ride here. We are told that he's not great around little kids, they make him nervous. He's been nothing but sweet to all of us and the other dog that was his travel mate and now his roommate. He seems to be in decent health for his age, no known problems. As with most Chias he struggles with house training and would probably benefit from being let out often and, perhaps, potty floor pad availability. So, adoptions have been strong and we had room to rescue 29 dogs and 3 gorgeous cats from a high kill area. Not one complained about the long ride and all have settled in nicely. Many of them seem to have understood, right away, that they were now safe in our Dog House with fresh blankets, lots of Science Diet food, automatic waterers and even toys! It gets a little confusing when getting files ready for so many at once, so if a breed, size, age seems questionable with the photos shown, please let us know. We are doing the best we can to save as many as we can. We so appreciate your understanding and willingness to adopt a dog we know little about that would have been dead, within a few days, if they had not come here. We always test out of towners for heart worm. The Adoption Fee for this dog is $150.00. Adoptions fees vary based on adoptability. In general our fees include spay/neuter, all age appropriate vaccines, Home Again micro-chipping & registration, worming & flea control - a 'complete' pet. Joyful Rescues has no funding except for our adoption fees and miscellaneous donations. Pet care and vet bills are expensive - you must be ready to take on this financial (as well as emotional) responsibility. YOU MUST BE AT LEAST 25 YEARS OF AGE TO ADOPT A DOG FROM JOYFUL RESCUES We keep our pet list as up-to-date as possible. As soon as a pet is adopted, it is removed from the list. If a pet is still showing, it is still available for adoption. Can't Adopt Me?
