Pippa recently came to AHF as an owner give up through no fault of her own. She is approximately 5 months old and appears to be a terrier/chihuahua mix with terrifically big ears! She is a sweet, gentle, and lovable 5 pound puppy! With all of the changes she is a bit timid and trembles a bit, but once she is in your arms she snuggles right in. She is inquisitive and plays well with the foster’s dogs. Since she is so young, she does piddle a bit when happy or excited. She will need to be housebroken and/or puppy pad trained. She will most likely be a tiny lady, so no very small young children. She will need her vaccine boosters and a spay at six months. She will be on a 2 week hold to make sure she is good to go, but we will be taking applications for her. As she is a very young and small puppy, she will need to be in a crate or pen while alone for her safety and her family should only leave her alone for 4 hour periods at a time. She is a "Pay it Forward" puppy, so she can help fund the care of our other adoptable dogs. The adoption fee is $705 which includes deworming, microchipping, 3 sets of puppy shots, rabies and neuter when old enough. After his/her neuter, you will get a $55 refund.
