Aloha ! My name is Stitch and I am a 3 month old, male, Short Coat Chihuahua, and I am looking for my Ohana (yep that's right, family). You can find me at the Santa Maria Campus. I am learning that people are great and with some time and patience I hope to be a more confident little pup. I am being handfed by staff to help my fear of strangers and build trust. I make small improvements everyday! I am looking for a family who will help me grow to be brave and be the best me I can be. Take a chance and come say hello every visit helps me grow. Interested in meeting me? Adoption Centers are open daily 12-4:30pm, closed Wednesdays. Adoptions are on a first-come first served basis. For more information please email Adopt@SBHumane.org or call 805-964-4777. When I am adopted, I will have been spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. My adopters will receive a certificate for a free veterinary exam and our partners at Purina will provide a supply of food for my first few days at home. Our adoption fees help support our community programs and the next animal who needs our help!

I would do well in adult-only home or in a family with older kids over 12. I get along great with other dogs and am cute as a button. Please email for an application.

Story
HI - I'M STARLET, a 5-year-old adorable Chihuahua girl in need of a forever home! I weight only 7 pounds. was rescued from a California shelter, but now am in a foster home. I came out of the shelter with a possible tooth abscess (hence the cone), which we are addressing once my weight gets up, as I'm a little skinny. Right now I prefer the company of humans to other dogs, but that could change once I feel better. I will be ready for a forever home soon - so that's why I'm creating this post, so that you will consider me. I'm a darling girl who loves to be held. I will make a great cuddler and would love a quiet home. Please email for an application.
