About Piper
Piper is an adorable one-and-a-half-year-old chihuahua, weighing around 7-8 lbs. Despite having lived in two homes already, she radiates sweetness and is ready for a stable, loving environment. Piper can be a bit nervous, especially around loud noises or unfamiliar surroundings, but she has a warm heart that shines through once she feels safe. After a slight adjustment period, she enjoys snuggling in your arms and cherishes her squeaky toys and games of chase with other dogs. Though she’s making progress with housetraining, her small size means she needs frequent outdoor breaks for potty time. A patient home that will help her with socialization and training will be ideal for her growth. Piper would thrive best with a family that values closeness and affection, especially under the warmth of a cozy blanket. If you're interested in bringing Piper into your home, a $250 donation is requested to help with her care. All applications undergo a thorough review process including reference checks and an adoption contract. Our dogs are always spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped prior to adoption. Remember, these loving pets are indoor companions, not meant for outdoor living. After completing an adoption questionnaire, we can arrange a visit. We appreciate your understanding, as we’re all volunteers balancing our commitments with fostering dogs. Your best friend is waiting to meet you. Apply today!
