About Karen

Meet Karen! Karen is an 8-year-old Chihuahua who arrived as a stray after wandering into a local store. She was transferred to us from ACCT due to overcrowding, where she faced the unfortunate risk of euthanasia. Thankfully, she’s with us now, looking for a loving forever home. This sweet senior lady has been fully vetted, including spaying, microchipping, and vaccinations. We're looking for a family that can provide her with a safe and nurturing environment. Given her age, Karen will need some time to adjust to her new surroundings, and she thrives with exercise, enrichment, and positive reinforcement training. If you're ready to give Karen the love she deserves, consider applying today. Angel's Retreat West Chester, PA PA Kennel License 17335. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
