Snickers *ELIGIBLE FOR FOSTER-TO-ADOPT* 🍫 Snickers is arriving to NYC on Wednesday, November 18 and needs a foster! He's making his cross-country journey all the way from San Diego, California to the East Coast to start his next chapter—and as you can see, he's already mastered the sweetest puppy-dog eyes to win you over! Snickers is a 1-year-old, 9-pound young chihuahua mix. If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate, and playful companion, get ready for Snickers! As if his charming, pocket-sized personality isn't enough, his gorgeous warm caramel-tan coat, velvety floppy ears, and sensitive soul are guaranteed to melt your heart. Because of his young age and unknown background, Snickers will need patient guidance and consistency with house, leash, and crate training as he learns the ropes of city life. Fortunately, he is known to be both human and dog-friendly, although a little shy. Because of his nervousness with humans (he warms up quickly!) he would likely love the company of another pup to show him around! No additional photos or information are available at this time. Snickers was recently neutered and had his cherry eye repaired. By applying for Snickers, you will participate in our foster / foster-to-adopt program! Let’s give this sweet boy a warm welcome to the East Coast—apply to foster Snickers today! Vaccinated for rabies, DHPP, and bordetella, microchipped and neutered. Heartworm negative and current on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. To apply for Snickers, visit our website (www.waggytailrescue.org) for an adoption application. It is important to fill out an application as soon as possible for consideration, and we require a complete application for you to meet an animal. We are currently unable to respond to general email inquiries as an all-volunteer run rescue. If the dog is on our website, they are still available.
