My story

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

Meet Raisin! She’s a 6 year-old chihuahua mix whose New Year’s resolution is to find her forever home.

Raisin had a bit of a bumpy ride to get here—literally. A run-in with a car landed her in the shelter with some bumps, bruises, and internal injuries to boot. Thanks to an amazing vet team and her resilient spirit, this comeback kid is all patched up and ready to take on the world…or at least her growing collection of squeaky toys and the occasional pesky squirrel.

Raisin doesn’t just play fetch—she redefines it with boundless energy and unmatched enthusiasm. When she’s not showing off her impressive retrieval skills or performing sound checks on all the toys in the house, you can usually find her snuggled up under a mountain of blankets, living her best burrito-dog life. She’s always willing to share her comfiest spots and accepts payment in the form of cuddles and belly rubs.

Because she’s currently in winter hibernation mode and generally a bit of a homebody at heart, she prefers movie nights to brewery hangs. But Raisin is extremely social and loves meeting new friends, both dog and human. She’s a gracious host, welcoming guests with a friendly lick or tail wag and quick to infuse any gathering with her infectious joy.

Committed to maintaining healthy habits, Raisin always gets a good night’s sleep in the sanctuary of her crate, walks well on leash for quiet strolls around the neighborhood, and with adequate outside breaks, doesn’t leave messes in the house. She’s not yet convinced that basic commands are a good use of her time—there are so many better things to do than “sit”—but we all have room for some personal growth, right?

Raisin is ready to say goodbye to setbacks and hello to snuggles in her new forever home! What better way to tackle the new year than with a new best friend by your side?

Additional adoption info

Please visit www.hopeanimals.org/adopt to learn more about our adoption process and to complete an adoption application.

Adoption Fee includes spay/neuter*, microchipping, up-to-date vaccinations, and current heartworm and flea/tick preventatives.

*If pet is not old enough to be spayed or neutered prior to adoption, a $50.00 credit will be paid to your vet at the time of surgery.

We require a veterinary reference for current pet owners, and pets must be up to date on vaccines and heartworm preventative. We meet potential adopters in their homes and introduce the pets to the family's current pets to see if it is a good match. A copy of our adoption contract can be requested via email.
