Kody is a 12-year-old, 9 lb. Chihuahua with a sweet, social personality and an adorably goofy charm. His tail seems to wag nonstop, and he happily greets just about everyone he meets. Kody is good with adults, kids, dogs and cats, and on walks he’ll stroll right up to new friends with his tail wagging. For a senior gentleman, Kody still has plenty of pep in his step! He enjoys a daily walk of about three-quarters of a mile, moves at his own pace and keeps up beautifully. He walks well on leash and would be happy with or without a yard as long as he gets regular opportunities to explore outside. Kody is also a serious cuddle bug. He loves belly rubs, enjoys being close to his people and is incredibly gentle when taking treats or other things from your hand. He is easygoing about being handled and has shown himself to be a trusting little guy. Kody appears to have some separation anxiety and may whine when left alone, so he would do best with a patient family who can help him feel secure and comfortable when his people are away. He is also working on his potty habits. Kody understands that outside is the place to go, but he has had some accidents and occasional marking indoors. His foster is currently using a consistent potty schedule and a belly band indoors to help reinforce good habits. Like many senior pups, Kody may be experiencing some vision loss, but he gets around well and doesn’t let it slow him down. He is not a big fan of the crate and may be happiest in a home where crating is not heavily relied upon. Kody gets along well with other dogs, although he can occasionally get a little possessive of his person when he’s soaking up attention. He responds to boundaries and settles quickly. Overall, Kody is a sweet, affectionate, social little senior who still has lots of love—and plenty of tail wags—to give. If you’re looking for a cuddly companion who enjoys leisurely walks, belly rubs and being by your side, Kody may be your perfect match. Kody is neutered, microchipped and up to date on his vaccinations. His adoption fee is $200. All Second Chance Dog Rescue dogs are spayed/neutered, are up to date on vaccines and have microchips prior to adoption. Adoption fees vary depending on age of dog. Fees help Second Chance Dog Rescue cover spay/neuter costs, vaccinations, medical treatments, food and supplies. Please go to .secondchancedogrescue and complete an application today! All dogs live in private foster homes until they are adopted.

  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.
