My story

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

Chihuahua
Age: Senior (12)
Female, spayed
9 lbs

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

Penny was brought to the shelter by someone who found her. She was already spayed and microchipped, but the person who answered the chip’s registered phone number (from 2012) supposedly wasn’t the owner. The finder claimed that Penny bit them as they were capturing her (not uncommon), and for that reason she was flagged with a bite history which means no other rescue group would help her. Even though she was available for adoption at the shelter, no one was interested, probably because she needed dental surgery. So the shelter called us. There have been no incidents of biting while at the shelter or in her foster home with Nobody’s Perfekt Dogs. We did the dental surgery - she went in with 7 remaining teeth, now she has only 2.

Penny is a sweet gal, mellow, doesn’t seem to mind dogs her own size (not too keen on the large puppies in the rescue bothering her during adoption events). She would make a great companion for someone looking for an easy dog.

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.
