Chihuahua and Dachshund Dogs Available for Adoption in Galt, California

Meet Hope.

Hope is a very sweet female dog between 1-2 years old. Hope is 11 lbs and appears to be a chihuahua/dachshund/possible min pin mix. She was rescued from a high kill shelter after a very traumatic stay. Hope came in pregant and sadly lost all of her babies and had to have an emergency csection.

Hope was surrounded by love as she made her way into our rescue. She was flown out to our rescue by amazing volunteer pilots. She has met other dogs and gets along with everyone great. She is healing from her surgery amazingly and shows appreciation and love through cuddles.

While her story is a very sad one and we grieve the loss of the babies, we know that she deserves a lifetime of love and adventures. She is yet another amazing dog to teach us to never give up and the beauty in resilience and that when people come together, amazing things can happen. Each and every day is a fresh start and this girl will choose happiness and love and we will be right there beside her watching her succeed.

She has been fixed and up to date on her rabies and dapp vaccines. She has been treated for fleas as well. When she arrived she was very dirty (covered in what appeared to be oil) but she has been cleaned up and is now a beautiful, happy, healthy dog. She is accepting applications now and we are scheduling Meet and greets.
