Polly - Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in Westfield, New York

It's time for the Saturday Sneak Peek at Northern Chautauqua Canine Rescue, Inc.! Arriving this evening (9-26), give a warm (but quiet!) welcome to 3 little souls who are a little shy, a bit timid, and not quite ready to come all the way out of their shells just yet - Wesley, Swiffer (*Will be listed soon), and Polly are cautiously optimistic that coming to NCCR will be the best thing that ever happened to them, because they know that is how they are going to find their very own forever families and the fairy tale happily ever after they all deserve!
Polly is a 2 year old chocolate Chihuahua mix who appears to have had puppies in the past, but she is glad to put those days behind her!
These 3 are all going to need a little patience, a lot of kindness, and some special understanding, and they would prefer a calmer home without too much day-to-day commotion, but if you have a gentle heart and can allow them the time they need to adjust and bond, they are sure to give you their whole hearts and be your devoted companions.
Read more info, see new pics, and apply to adopt online at www.caninerescue.org . Have a question? Email us at adoptions@caninerescue.org . Visit the shelter Monday - Saturday 1-3 p.m., no appointment needed, to meet all the available resident dogs. They're waiting for you to make today the best day of their lives so far!
*Approved applicants are welcome to participate in our popular Slumber Party program and take a dog home for up to 2 weeks to make sure she is a great fit.
If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first step should be to complete an Adoption Application at www.caninerescue.org. *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application. It takes a lot of time to process the applications, so we ask for your patience while we do so. If you see that the dog you were interested in has been adopted it means there were many applications for that dog and we did not get as far processing your application before a home was found. We welcome you to apply again when you see another dog that interests you.

Not sure if you are ready to adopt? Please consider applying to foster Polly, which will lead to a happily ever after adoption, either with you, or the family you help get her ready for! Fostering is an incredibly rewarding experience. Learn more and apply on our website, under the “Get Involved” tab.

If you have a question, please email us at adoptions@caninerescue.org. It is much easier and quicker for us to respond by email, as we receive many phone calls.
We do adopt out of state, however we do not transport or ship dogs. Potential adopters must be able and willing to travel to the Rescue to meet the dog they are interested in.
*PLEASE double check all of the phone numbers that you provide. If they are incorrect, we will not be able to process your application. Please also let your references know that someone from NCCR will be calling them. Most adoption team members call from their personal phone, so advise your references that there may be an unknown or private number calling them. Thank you!
