Pippin Chihuahua & Pug Mix Medfield, MA

Pip is willing to do whatever it takes to find a home for holidays -- even wear a Santa outfit! Pippin has been with us for almost two months and has been fortunate to spend much of that time in a wonderful foster home with a mom who loves her but cannot keep her long term. Pip is a quiet, funny, adorable little dog. She is a Chihuahua mix, weighs 11 lbs. and is 2 or 3 years old. She was found as a stray, so we don't know her history. Her foster mom reports that Pip is totally housebroken and very affectionate. She would like nothing more than to sit in your lap or snuggle next to you on the couch and also loves to go for walks several times a day.

Pip is very sweet, loyal, curious and always interested in being with her people and doing whatever they are doing. She is not a big fan of cats, but does get along with small dogs after a bit of barking. She needs an adult-only home.

If you are interested in adopting a dog, please fill out the dog adoption application on this page of our website: http://medfieldshelter.com/dog_applications/new

Pippin's adoption fee is $150. Every dog we place is vaccinated, wormed, treated for ticks/fleas, and spayed/neutered prior to adoption. We send each dog home with a collar and leash and a month's worth of heartworm preventative.
With very few exceptions, dogs are happiest and the most well-behaved when they receive daily exercise and ongoing training, so we always prefer to place our dogs with families who are willing to make a commitment to both.
All adoption meetings are by appointment only as we only have one employee. Our manager or one of our volunteers will be happy to set up an appointment for you to come meet the pets, but please fill out the adoption application first.
