If you are interested in adopting this dog,  please fill out an Adoption Questionnaire at  https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/43315/generic.  You can learn about the adoption process by visiting: http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/howtoadopt/.  Dog's Name:   Penny/Little Bit  (PEN0923OWSFS)Estimated Breed:   Chihuahua MIXApproximate Age:   10-12 yearsApproximate Weight:  9 lbsCurrently Living at:   FosterAdoption Fee:   $300DOG'S DESCRIPTION:  Penny is a sweet and quiet little lap dog. She is looking for a loving, quiet, and nurturing home to live out their twilight years. She is apprehensive at first and when frightened she may nip as a defensive mechanism due to her very limited sight (bilateral cataracts) and limited hearing, but once acclimated to her new surroundings and trusts you she is 100% loving lap dog. She will approach for attention and is very affectionate after an initial "breaking in" period. She will need an all adult household, no steps unless gated so she doesn't fall down them. Believe it or not, Penny does walk on leash okay, but is low energy and would be totally fine with quick access to a fenced backyard or a pee pad so she doesn't have to go out in the cold big world where she can't see danger lurking.  She is well trained to the pee pads. She sleeps in a dog bed near her people, and her favorite is to be abe to get under a nice soft blanket to keep her warm. Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.    Adoption fees cover basic vetting, rabies (if puppy is old enough), distemper/parvo vaccinations, deworming, monthly heartworm prevention while in our care (if old enough), monthly flea/tick prevention while in our care, and transport costs. K-9 Lifesavers will also cover the cost of spay/neuter at our partner vet at 6 months of age or reimburse adopter for up to the amount of our partner vet cost should you choose to spay/neuter at your own vet.       Foster Program:    Foster homes provide for the temporary care of a rescue until the dog is placed into a loving, forever home.  For more information on becoming a foster parent, and our Foster Program, visit http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/foster/ or email our Foster Coordinator at foster@k-9lifesavers.orgSPONSOR ME! Help Save Lives!    Make a tax-deductible donation today and help save a life. Donations help us offset boarding costs and additional medical treatment for those dogs who need it.  K-9 Lifesavers receives NO federal funding and survive with your generous support! We are all volunteer based organization so every cent from your donation goes directly to the dogs in our care. Visit: http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/donate/For more information on K-9 Lifesavers, or to view a complete listing of all our Adoptable Dogs, visit our website at www.k-9lifesavers.org.Please “like” our  Facebook Page for the most current events and new dogs.Thank you for considering a rescue dog! ##1829453##

She is a cheerful and energetic little girl with lots of love to share! She gets the zoomies daily in her current foster home, zipping around the backyard or house at top speed. For this reason, she should have space to run, either inside or out. Toys direct her joyful puppy energy and she loves tug-of-war. Her tail double-curls when she’s extra happy! She’s very attuned to her surroundings and alerts when someone approaches the house. Her small size makes her easy to pick up, and she’s a super snuggler on the couch. She's also great in the car, happily jumping in and watching out the windows.Cassie is super attentive and quickly learned to sit in her special spot outside the kitchen during meal prep. She has also learned ‘sit’, ‘quiet’, ‘stay’, and ‘spin’, and to sit and wait before going in and out the kitchen door. What a sweet face she gives as she tries so hard to follow directions and make you happy! She’s completely housebroken and is good about not doing her business on pavement or sidewalks. She loves a sniffy walk and will zig-zag through the leaves and grass like it's a true adventure. She does get excited easily and will bark if people move too quickly, such as runners going by.Cassie would welcome having another dog in her new home, but it’s not necessary. She has lived with a 40 pound Beagle mix who she joyfully raced and wrestled with on a regular basis. She is ok with cats, but she likes to give chase if they run. Cassie deserves a loving forever home where she will be treated like family. Could it be yours?
