Meet Richy

We got Richy after he was released to the shelter by his owner.   Richy is a 2 year old Shih Tzu/Maltese mix weighing in at 14.3 pounds.  Richy is a good dog and we aren't sure why he ended up at the shelter but he will only experience good days from now on.   He was extremely matted so our vet tech had to shave him down.  He is being treated for a severe skin infection but will be good as new very soon.  Richy would like to have a family that is home often because he loves being with his humans.   He is good with other dogs and would do well with older children.  He will need some help with potty training when he gets to his new home.   If you would like to make Richy a part of your family please fill out an application from our website.

Adoption Process
We have a thorough adoption process that includes an adoption application, vet check (All current and past pets have to be current on vacs. and spayed/neutered), and home check (fence required for larger dogs, etc.). If those come out good and the adoption is finalized, there is an adoption fee that is paid and a contract is signed by the adopter stating that the animal must be routinely vetted and the animal is not allowed to go to any other home w/out the rescue's approval. All of our animals are spayed/neutered before adopting out and currenton vacs (as well as flea and HW meds).
