Paprika's Story

Paprika is a 7-year-old, 15lb Chihuahua mix with a one-of-a-kind personality. He’s heartworm positive, but don’t let that scare you—we’ve got tips and support to help you through it. Paprika isn’t an instant best friend; he can nip when scared and needs a few days to feel safe. But once you’ve earned his trust, he’ll be your loyal little gremlin sidekick. He does well with other dogs his size and would do best with older, respectful kids.

Barking Wishes Senior Pet Rescue and Sanctuary's Adoption Policy
Applications are reviewed by a director and foster, vet checks are done, home check or virtual home check done, if home is a rental we contact landlords, in depth telephone interview is conducted and a meet and greet with pet is set up. If the adopter advances through all stages of the application process, a director will approve the application and the animal will be transferred to the new adoptive family. The adopter is given a 72 hour window to allow them to return the pet for any reason whatsoever in exchange for a full refund or more suitable pet. Our contract states that after that 72 hour window, we will always take our dogs back into the rescue for any reason and they aren’t to be taken to a shelter or re-homed
