Matilda - Chihuahua-Unknown Mix Female Dog For Adoption in Forest, Virginia, USA

Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Mixed. Adoption Fee: $100.

Sweet Matilda! She is the sweetest senior with so many more years of love to give! The vet believes she is about 8yrs old. She just had surgery for cherry eyes and did well for surgery. Matilda is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped and heartworm tested negative (and on prevention). She also just had a dental with some extractions, so is enjoying food again! Matilda has lived with other dogs and does well. She is a little hesitant of cats, but it is more of a confusion/fear. She is a very laid back girl and just wants to be a lap dog. She likes to go outside but not for very long. She doesn't like thunderstorms, but loves burying herself in a blanket (in typical chihuahua fashion!). Matilda is potty trained for outside, but will use pads also. She has not been leash trained, so a fenced yard would be ideal. Matilda will offer her new family so much libe and affection. This dog's adoption fee is $100. Interested in this animal? The first step is an application, which can be completed at .cvrrescue/adoption-applications/. The adoption fee helps cover a portion of the care provided for our animals, including spay/neuter, microchip, heartworm testing for dogs, FeLV/FIV combo testing for cats, deworming, age-appropriate vaccines (including rabies vaccine), and any medical care received while in our care. All cats and dogs are on flea/tick and parasite prevention for the duration of foster care. Notes about puppies: Adopters can expect a new puppy to have accidents, chew things they shouldn't, and have other normal, energetic puppy issues until they are trained, including jumping, mouthing, and general youthful naughtiness. If you experience puppy issues, please feel free to contact us; we’re happy to offer guidance. Also, if a puppy is a mixed breed, we cannot guarantee an adult weight. If your residence has weight restrictions or if you’re looking for a specific adult weight, we don't recommend applying for a mixed-breed puppy. We also offer rehoming services for pets currently owned by individuals. In these cases, we list the animal as a courtesy to the owner, and the animal is not currently in the care of CVRR, such that we can make no representation or guarantee of the animal’s behavior, demeanor, or health assessment. All information listed for a courtesy-posted animal is provided by the current owner and should be verified by any potential adopter. CVRR is a nonprofit organization. We have no paid staff, and all applications are reviewed and processed by our volunteers. Please be patient and understand that it may take 7-14 days to process your application, check your references, and gather follow-up info. You can expedite the process by providing accurate phone numbers and email addresses for your vet and landlord references, and by answering each question fully. Once your application is approved, we will schedule a meet-and-greet to see if the animal picks you, too. If it seems the adoption will be a good match for all, we will collect the adoption fee and complete the adoption contract. CVRR is a NO KILL rescue organization, and we have a LIFETIME COMMITMENT to all of our animals. If for any reason the adoption does not work out, the animal must be returned to CVRR. We will reevaluate the animal and choose a new home based on the best fit for it.
