My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Chihuahua
Age: Senior
Female, spayed
3.5 lbs

Adoption Fee: $125 (includes spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations)

Pixie was picked up by animal control on the streets of Hayward. While at the shelter, she gave a lot of “mixed messages” to the staff. “I want to play” “I am a happy little girl” “Touch me and lose a finger” etc. So the shelter reached out to us to rescue her.

She has bonded with the foster dad, and allows him to handle her. Everyone else in the home, however, needs to use caution when interacting with her. It is very common for these small dogs to be a ONE PERSON ONLY dog and Pixie fits that description. Although a lot of the time she is pretty stoic, the foster home is starting to see some of her playful side with the other dogs. Pixie does fine with other small dogs. Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We specialize in "hard to place dogs" due to their breed, age, minor behavioral or medical conditions. We strive to keep our fees reasonable ($125), and we have sponsorship funds to help with fees, if needed.

After the application is approved, the prospective adopter must take the dog on a trial-basis "sleepover" for a few days, before finalizing the adoption.

We require landlord approval if the applicant is renting their living space.

We only do adoptions in San Francisco Bay Area and surrounding regions.

We DO NOT adopt to families with children under the age of 13.

More about this rescue

We specialize in finding homes for dogs where “imperfection” is tolerated in exchange for a lifetime of love and devotion.

Our foster dogs have been discarded by the people they once trusted, only to find themselves in a shelter with no other options.

We want them to have a second chance to receive the love and care they deserve.
