Your adoption donation goes toward the cost of this vet care as well as other incidental costs of care. In addition, all pets adopted from Motley Zoo come with a free 30 day trial of free pet insurance provided by 24PetWatch.



HISTORY: Motley Zoo Animal Rescue was asked to find Iona Potts a great forever family and that is exactly what we plan to do! Iona was surrendered to a shelter pregnant with her daughter from her last litter. These three pups will be the last this little mother will have to attend to.



NOTES FROM FOSTER HOME: Iona Potts is a super sweet little girl. She can be shy at first but warms up quickly. She is a really easy going girl and loves to be part of the family. She will make herself at home in your lap and is happy cuddling with you on the couch or in bed. While she will go outside to do her business and does like to spend some time in the backyard, it's only if her people are out there as she likes to be where they are. She does not always need to be in your lap but is content to curl up with the other dogs in the same room as you. Iona is a typical little Chihuahua and while not a yapper she will bark at strangers, especially when they knock on your door. She has greated many new people and while a little nervous at the beginning she makes friends quickly, especially when treats are involved. Iona is a major fan of food. She is eager to please and responds to correct and her name very well. Iona is a wonderful mother to her three little chis and now needs to be pampered in a forever home of her own.



All dogs adopted from Motley Zoo come with a leash and Martingale collar (or a harness, if necessary), depending on each dog's particular needs. We also send home additional flea treatment and deworming medication for your future use.



ABOUT MOTLEY ZOO:

Motley Zoo Animal Rescue is a volunteer run, foster based, 501(c)(3) non-profit animal rescue organization based in Redmond, WA. Motley Zoo does not have a traditional shelter location, but instead, utilizes private foster homes which care for the animals individually, in a home environment, until a "furever" home is found.



Motley Zoo also runs "Rock Star Treatment" Dog Daycare & Training Studio in Redmond, WA which is a day-use facility and does not hold kennels of adoptable animals. The dogs there are owned animals who come to the facility while their families are at work and school so they can play and socialize in a safe environment. We dub this service our "Year-round" fundraising program which helps us support our rescue animals and the $15,000/ month vet bills we incur. This Studio location does have an Adoptable Cat Lounge, where cats may live until adoption, which is the exception to any aforementioned rules.



Please email adopt@motleyzoo.org and request an adoption application so we can get you started on the journey to finding a new, furry friend! Once you have been approved to adopt, then we can set up a meeting with the animal you have been matched with.

Thank you for considering adopting a dog in need!



Woof,



The Motley Zoo Crew
