Chihuahua Dogs Available for Adoption in San Marcos, California

URGENT - The shelter is overflowing and over capacity. They desperately need adopters today! There is no more space therefore when a kennel is needed for an incoming dog and no kennels are available, a dog is forced to give up their life. Please adopt or offer to long term foster for rescue to clear kennels and save lives!

WE ARE COURTESY POSTING THIS DOG FOR THE MORENO VALLEY ANIMAL SHELTER TO HELP THEM FIND A HOME. The shelter is severely overcrowded and desperately needs help. Dogs are being turned in higher numbers than the shelter can accommodate, therefore many are losing their lives due to lack of cage space. We are helping get the word out of their immediate need. Please save this deserving pooch and clear a kennel for another dog in need today!

This beautiful dog is located in the Moreno Valley shelter. Please contact the shelter directly with questions.
