My story

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

Hi there! I'm Almond, a 7-pound bundle of love and fluff. I'm a white Chihuahua, and while I might be a bit older, I've still got plenty of spunk and affection to share. I'm happiest when I'm curled up in my crate at night, with the door left open so I can come and go as I please. I've lived with cats but prefer a cat-free home. If other dogs are in the family, I'd like them to be closer to my size. I've had surgery on my knees, so I'm pretty low-key on walks and getting in and out of the car!

I'm crate-trained and leash-trained, and although I'm house-trained it sometimes helps me to wear doggy diapers if I'm on my own for a while. I love to snuggle up and soak up the sunshine when it's warm outside. I'm a playful little guy and enjoy short walks and playing with my toys. I can be a bit shy around kids and new people, so I'd do best in a home with someone older who's looking for a loving companion. If you're looking for a sweet, snuggly friend who's mostly content to stay home and enjoy some quiet time together, I might be the perfect match for you!

Their adoption process

1.
Submit Application

From the adoptable dogs page on our website, click on dogs photo to open their profile then, click on the gray "apply to adopt" button.

2.
Approve Application

We review all applications as they come in, but our process is not “first come, first served.”

3.
Interview

If your home suits the dog's needs, we'll call you to discuss your application and ask any follow-up questions.

4.
Meet the Pet

If it is determined that you and dog might be a good fit a meet and greet will be arranged.

5.
Take the Pet Home

If the meet and greet goes well then you would sign a preliminary adoption agreement and start a 2-week trial adoption.

6.
Sign Adoption Contract

After your 2-week trial if you decide you want to finalize the adoption we will send you a link to sign the final agreement and pay the fee.

7.
Pay Fee

Our single dog adoption fee is $200 and our bonded pair fee is $220. We do offer a 10% discount for folks over 60 and military veterans.

Go meet their pets

We are a foster-based, volunteer-driven rescue. All SDRO dogs available for adoption are listed on our website. The listing includes information to help you decide if one of our dogs is right for your household. If you are interested in adopting a dog, please complete an online application. If your home suits the dog's needs, we'll call you to discuss your application and ask any follow-up questions. Our experienced adoption coordinator will discuss the dog’s needs with you to help determine if your home is the right fit. Since we do not operate a shelter and all our dogs are in foster care, a meet-and-greet will be your first opportunity to meet the dog face-to-face.
