Story
Jerry is a senior Chihuahua mix (b. May 2012), who was brought to Muddy Paws through a partnership with The Artemis Project - an Arkansas-based animal rescue. After Jerry came to Omaha, he was adopted and spent about a year and a half with someone. His owner has become ill and can no longer care for him. We need your help to find him a retirement home to live out his golden years. He is a sweetheart and is friendly with other small, laid-back dogs his size, but he would really love to be your one and only!
Jerry is a toothless fella, so he'll need a home where any other resident pets are friendly, easygoing, and happy to have another senior friend around. He is a little overwhelmed by small children, but would be okay with older kids in the home. One of his favorite things to do is spending time curled up with his person! If you're looking for a sweet little cuddle man, this senior guy might be the one for you!
The suggested adoption donation for Jerry is $325. Muddy Paws is a 501c3 non-profit organization which means that part of your donation MAY be TAX-DEDUCTIBLE. We are a 100% volunteer rescue committed to giving animals a second chance at life. All donations go toward that mission. Adoption fees are the primary source of funding for the cost of veterinary care for our animals. In 2020 alone, we were able to provide animal Healthcare costing over $241,000 covered mainly through adoption fees.
Information about the adoption process: All adoptions require a completed ADOPTION APPLICATION. Once your application is approved, we will put you in touch with the animal’s foster to see if you and the pet are a good match. If so, we will arrange a meeting for you and the animal. The adoptions for all of our animals will take place in the Omaha, NE area and must be done by the adoptive family in person. We do not ship or deliver.
Please Note: We are a RESCUE, which is different from a shelter. We conduct veterinary and personal reference checks during the application approval process. We always select the right applicant for each animal, based on the animal’s needs. If you and the animal are not a good match, we will help you select another animal, or we will keep your approved application on file for 6 months.
