Story
Meet Penny, the adorable 20ish-pound lowrider with a heart as big as her love for life! This gorgeous pup started her journey chasing butterflies in New Mexico before hopping on an adventure to Colorado, where she's now awaiting her forever home. Penny adores being near her humans and thrives with the guidance of another dog, though with plenty of love and attention, she'd also make a great solo companion. She enjoys leisurely walks and has a quirky habit of bringing you little treasures she finds, helping remind you to keep things tidy. Her absolute favorite things? Hugs and being told how pretty she is—because, well, she is! If you're ready to welcome a sweet, affectionate pup into your life, Penny is waiting to bring endless love and joy to your home. If you're interested in meeting Penny please fill out an application at www.thegooddogrescue.org (If you already have an approved application, please email thegooddogrescueadoptions@gmail.com with your interest in her!) Her adoption fee is $300 and she is spayed, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations ##2275901##

Chili is an active little girl that loves to play with her siblings and her foster.  She has not been on a walk yet due to her age and size.  She is the vocal one out of her siblings and will let you know when she needs something.  She does share food and toys with her siblings, but she also likes to be the first to the food bowl.  She has met the dogs and cats in the foster house and appears a little nervous, but with proper introductions, she would love another fur friend.  She is a playful little girl that would love a family that would play with her and take the time to help her learn to be the best pup.  Come meet Chili at the adoption events at Petco on Saturdays. ##2245912##

Story
Cheech - The Escape Artist Chihuahua About Cheech: 2-year-old male Chihuahua Neutered and microchipped Up-to-date on all vaccinations Outgoing and friendly with people, especially enjoys the company of children Prefers the company of smaller dogs, especially female pups High-energy and very clever - can climb chain link fences to escape, so will need a secure, high wooden fence Personality and Behavior: Cheech is a lively and affectionate Chihuahua with a big personality packed into a small body. He loves people and most dogs, though he tends to prefer the company of smaller pups, especially females. His clever and adventurous nature has earned him the nickname "Houdini" - he has an uncanny ability to climb to the top of chain link fences and then jump down to freedom. For this reason, he will need a securely fenced yard with a tall wooden fence that he cannot climb. Cheech is house-trained and comfortable using a doggie door. He does well when crated, but will need close supervision to prevent any daring escapes when doors are opened. Tragically, Cheech's adventurous spirit once led him to kill a chicken after getting out, so he is not recommended for a farm or rural environment. However, Cheech seems to do well with children and could make a delightful companion in the right home, as long as his escape artist tendencies are carefully managed. Ideal Home: Cheech would thrive in an active home with a securely fenced yard and plenty of enrichment to channel his high energy. He would do best in a home without other large dogs, and one with responsible owners who can provide close supervision to prevent any unplanned adventures. An experienced Chihuahua owner or a home with dog-savvy children would be ideal for this clever and affectionate pup. ##2195191##
