! MARGARET NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!! Come meet Margaret and other great adoptable dogs this Sunday (06/15) from 12-3 pm at the PetSmart in Falls Church, VA (6100A Arlington Blvd, Falls Church, VA 22044)! Name: Margaret Best Guess for Breed: Chihuahua mix Best Guess for Age: 1 year as of April 2025 SEX: Female Approximate Weight: 17 lbs Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen her with cats but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters! Currently Living at: DC area foster home. Special adoption considerations: Dogs from Puerto Rico have a major transition to go through when they arrive and will need humans who are very committed to socialization. We think this pup would do best with either a resident dog or a family who can make sure they can go on walks regularly with other dogs, visit the dog park, or go to Margaret is Looking For: Her forever home! This sweet mama did a fantastic job raising her babies Monsieur, Maggie, Meg, Margie, Maribelle, Margo, Mette, Malcolm, and Mark and they've gone off to find their homes. Now Margaret knows her own humans are somewhere here in the DC area and can't wait to meet them. She's got so much on her wish list - sniffy walks by her humans' side, romps in parks, all the adventures they can dream up. And quality kibble and a cushy dog bed - and lots and lots of snuggles and cuddles! Margaret may be small but the love in her heart for her humans is enormous. She can't wait to bestow upon her family all the adoring gazes and little tail wags and loving companionship she's storing up for them! What do you say? Can you see her trotting down there by your side? What My Foster Says About Me: Margaret is a great mix of being playful at times but also calm in the home. She absolutely loves to play with toys, but is also content relaxing and flopping on her back for belly rubs. She is a bit shy with new people at first, but warms up quickly and is a sweetheart once she feels comfortable. She seems to enjoy the company of other dogs as well. She is quiet in the house and has not been reactive to loud noises, and she is doing great with her crate training! She settles quickly in her crate and sleeps quietly through the night. She will make her forever family very happy! Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training. TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and spay/neuter.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
