"Dogs have given us their absolute all. We are the center of their universe, we are the focus of their love and faith and trust. They serve us in return for scraps. It is without a doubt the best deal man has ever made."
-Roger Caras
This little angel is in a New England foster home and she'd love to meet you!
From her foster mom: 'I have been fostering a 9 year old(hard to believe) dachshund/chi mix since last monday when i picked her up in Connecticut. She weighs about 13 pounds. Her ears are the only thing that resemble a chi...she is all black and has been used as a breeder for all her life and was brought to a kill shelter because she had served her purpose for years, breeding every 6 months. She is the sweetest, most gentle and loving dog that deserves a forever home..She is house trained and is definitely a people person wanting love and attention but also obedient. She responds well to the name she has known for years. She walks well on a leash and just wants to prove what a good dog she is.She loves to snuggle on the sofa with me under a blanket and deserves a forever placement. She adjusted to my home wonderfully and the 2- 5 pound chi's she lives with and is definitely not the alfa female.She is so ready to have the stability of a forever home and would bring great joy to her new family. She is also crate trained. Please pass the word of this sweetheart of a dog that needs a forever home....she already has a place in my heart, but where i live only allows 2 dogs in the house hold....Markita is in good health and has many more years of faithful companionship to a new family.....' Please give Markita a chance at her forever home! If you apply for her we'll call and do your interview and set up a time that you can meet her if she seems like a good match for your family.
