Adoption Fee: $350 Why in Rescue: Breeder Surrender General Profile: Please fill out the adoption application at www.bichonrescues.com/adoption.html if you are interested in meeting one of our dogs. GiGi (Grace Gold) came to us from a breeder, but she was never used for breeding. She is shy which is typical of a dog from a commercial breeder, but she is very sweet and curious about what is going on around her. She will do best in a home with another small dog that will continue to help her learn about living in a home instead of a kennel. She is around 5 lb, so not a dog suitable for a home with young children or large dogs. She is currently in a foster home with other Chihuahuas. 6/21/14 update: Little GiGi has come a long way since she came to us. She is still scared to go outside, but is doing much better. The great news is she is reliable with using Potty Pads so she really doesn't need to go outside often. If considering adopting a former breeding dog, the following article is good to read to help you understand the special needs these dogs may have. http://www.aspca.org/pet-care/virtual-pet-behaviorist/dog-behavior/adopting-puppy-mill-dog Adoption Procedures: 1. Completely fill out the pre-adoption application. We will be checking with your vet if you have had pets, calling your landlord (if any) and checking a personal reference, before we contact you about visiting the adoptables. Any missing information may have us moving onto another application. 2. If you application is approved, we will contact you to come meet the adoptables that you are interested in. 3. If it is a match, you will complete the adoption contract and pay the adoption fee. Please be prepared to take your adopted pet home when you come meet him/her. In most cases, you will be able to take the pet home the same day. If all the vetting hasn't been done yet, we will hold the pet for you until the vet work is completed. 4. If you have filled out an application and we haven't contacted you within a week, we may have missed your application, the pet may have been adopted by another applicant, or you may have been missing information on your application. You may contact us to find out the status of your application at this time. Please give us a week to process your application before contacting us!
