Description:

PONCHO WOULD DO BEST IN A SINGLE FAMILY HOME (NO APARTMENTS) THAT HAS AN EXISTING PLAYFUL DOG HIS SIZE/ENERGY (NO LARGE BREEDS) MEET CUTIE PATOOTIE PONCHO This sweet and spunky 8 pound, 1.5 year old (as of October 2023) teeny chiweenie is the life of any party because he likes to have fun and play, play play. We are still getting to know him but what we can say for sure is that he has a good temperament and he's friendly and affectionate with people. He would do best in a home with another young, playful dog his size and with his speed. He lives with a foster who works from home and he doesn't like to be alone for long periods of time, so an adopter who also works from home would be ideal for him. At six months old, Poncho is at the age to start training and he’s super smart. We are looking for a home that has the time to devote to a puppy. He has all the makings of a good canine citizen. Poncho is dewormed and deflead and has his first round of vaccines. He will be neutered and microchipped for adoption. Sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart.---If you are interested in adopting PONCHO please fill out our adoption application by clicking this LINK. Applications are required PRIOR to meeting one of our animals and are used to set up a safe and successful adoption. Please don't be shy and answer the questions thoroughly. To learn more about our entire process please visit www.therescuetrain.org and click on the "Adopt A Dog" page. PLEASE NOTE: WE DO NOT OWN A FACILITY. Our animals are in private foster homes. If you are interested in adopting one of our animals please fill out our online application. Or check our mobile adoption schedule on our home page. *APPLICANT MUST BE AT LEAST 21 YEARS OLD**APPLICANT MUST LIVE IN THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES* INTERESTED IN ADOPTING? PLEASE FILL OUT AN ADOPTION APPLICATION ON OUR WEBSITE: www.therescuetrain.orgAdoption process1) View pets online 2) Submit application for the pet of your choice. FYI: The application process is not meant to be an invasion of privacy but a tool to help us find out if one of our pets would fit happily into your home and lifestyle. We spend a lot of time and funds to get to know our dogs and cats and your application helps set both you and them up for a successful adoption. CLICK HERE FOR APPLICATION. 3) Meet the dog or cat: By appointment only. If your application is approved, you will be contacted to arrange to meet the pet at a convenient time. We ask that everyone who will be living with the pet attend the meeting. Also, if you have an existing dog, for a dog we might ask that you bring him/her along for an introduction. 4) Home check: While a home visit is required prior to final placement, it does not guarantee adoption. We like to see where our pets will be living to make sure that they will be in a safe and secure environment. Often we can help with unforeseen health risks and help secure yards and fences that first time owners might miss. 5) Adoption contract: The adoption contract is a binding agreement between the adopter and our rescue group. If, for any reason, the adoption of one of our pets DOES NOT work out, you MUST return the animal to The Rescue Train. We are always here for our animals, no matter what. 6) Tax deductible donation. There is a minimum tax deductible donation of $250 per dog and $125 per cat. Each pet is spayed/neutered, vaccinated*, and microchipped. In most cases, we have already spent hundreds, if not thousands of dollars, on vet bills, boarding and training for each pet. The donation helps us recoup a small fraction of that cost. *In the case of puppies and kittens, additional rounds of shots might be required. Many dogs that come to us need training. We are one of the few groups that obedience train the majority of our rescue dogs. Our intensive training program would cost the average pet owner hundreds of dollars. Part of our $250 dog adoption agreement, for dogs who require training, is that their adoptive parents have a mandatory free private training session before the dog can go home. 7) Delivery of your new family member: We come with education and helpful hints to help things go smoothly and take the guess work out of what to expect when bringing your new pet home. Each pet has a team of people behind him/her and we are here to be a support system if you should need us.Shelter locationRescue Train animals are seen by appointment only. If your application is approved, you will be contacted to meet the animal at a convenient time. Because we do homechecks and follow up visits we only do local adoptions around the LA area.
