Lap dog alert!!! 🚨 🚨🚨 👇

JULIET is a precious 10 year old, 5.2 pound Chihuahua surrendered because her owner was being evicted and couldn't keep her.

JULIET is a perfect companion dog. She loves people, gives lots (and lots) of kisses, enjoys a good back scratch, flops over without invitation for belly rubs, and is the ultimate lap dog. She will ask to be picked up and dances on your leg if you have food. She is her foster mom's shadow, p*eking her little head around corners to touch base with her regularly. She wants to be where her person is as much as possible. Sometimes she acts like a puppy, rolling in her little bed and bouncing around the house and yard!

JULIET gets along with other little dogs but she would be perfectly content as an only dog as long as she gets to spend a lot of time with her people. If there are other dogs in the home they should be small and closer to her age. For the most part she coexists peacefully and will curl up in a fluffy dog bed or on the sofa with the dogs in her foster home but she can get snippy if a dog gets too in her space or tries to step on her. She does not always like to share a lap but does once given gentle correction when she's grumbly. At her age and size she would be happiest in a quieter home without kids. She barks at the cat in her foster home.

JULIET loves to go outside (but not alone) and generally does well with potty training. She has p*e accidents here and there but if you are paying attention to her and take her out on a good schedule she will go outside to potty. She is very treat motivated! We have not tried her on a leash and a fenced yard is ideal.

JULIET typically naps when her person leaves the home and greets them with her whole heart when they come back. She can be fearless, especially if there's food just out of her reach. She loves to eat!

At night JULIET sleeps quietly snuggled under blankets in a dog bed right next to the bed in the master bedroom. She would like to sleep with her foster family but they have a high bed and worry about her falling off.

JULIET has been to the vet for a wellness check, is up to date on shots, spayed, had a dental, is heartworm negative, has had a 12-month ProHeart heartworm prevention shot, and is microchipped with a lifetime registration. When we got JULIET she had a lot of hair loss from fleas but it's mostly grown back in, although her ears will probably always be hairless.

VALERIE is a 2 year old, 6.9 pound Pomeranian surrendered to us by her owner. She is a sweet, shy, bouncy little fluffball!

VALERIE is not used to living as a pet and she is still a little nervous with some things but REALLY wants attention and to be playful with her person. She’ll bounce around near you, then when you move towards her to interact she’ll back away and flatten to her belly, but army crawl back to you for pets. Once she’s used to you, she loves flopping over for a belly rub. If you pick her up and put her by you, she will happily curl up next to you or on your lap.

VALERIE is still working on potty training but improving with few accidents. She is not leash trained and needs a home with a fenced yard. Sometimes it takes her a while to find the courage to walk back through the door from the yard and she’s fast and hard to catch to carry inside. She’s doing more and more exploring of the yard before retreating to the patio. She’s a good eater and does cute little tappy feet for food.

VALERIE is good with other dogs and is getting more playful. She’ll happily pounce on the other dogs to initiate play. She likes joining in the other dogs barking when the mail comes or there’s someone in the yard or there’s an unfamiliar noise. We are not sure she knows what she’s barking at but she does it with enthusiasm! Her best home will have another small dog in it and that's what we are looking for.

At night VALERIE likes to sleep snuggled up with her person. She's too little to jump on a sofa or bed and she pretty much stays where she is put. She will also sleep in a dog bed if that is your preference.

VALERIE has been to the vet for a wellness check, is up to date on shots, spayed, heartworm negative, has had a 12-month ProHeart heartworm prevention shot, and is microchipped with a lifetime registration.

To meet VALERIE please submit an online adoption application for review using this link https://form.jotform.com/232395363383057 or by visiting our website www.aplaceofhoperescue.com and filling out an application on our application page.

There is a lost dog epidemic in this area and it's heartbreaking. Let's go over some helpful tips for keeping your dog safe!

First, be truly aware of the many dangers for dogs. Cars, trains, other dogs, coyotes, hawks, bears, people, toxic plants, poisons, etc.

Keep your dog inside when you're not home if at all possible, even if you're just going out for a minute. There are literal horror stories that we can list here of dogs who were left out and suffered badly because of it. Leaving your dog in a fenced area is no guarantee that it will be safe. Dogs will dig out, people will get in, dogs or other predators will get in, dogs will find weak spots to escape, etc. A scared dog, especially one in a storm, will go right through a fence or over it.

Walk your fences daily. If you see a broken board, a loose board, or a rotted board, replace it. If you see places where the fence doesn't meet the ground that a dog could easily see it as a fun digging spot, reinforce it. You can use wire, garden fence, bricks, boards, or blocks. We recommend "Dig Defense" often to our adopters. It works. If you know there is a weak spot in your fence, don't let your dog out unattended until it's fixed!

Do not, and we repeat, do not let your dog out alone in an unsecured area and expect it to come back. As you can see on all the lost and found pages, that doesn't always happen. We cannot count how many times we see somebody say "I let him out to go potty and he always comes back". And in our minds, we always say "Until they don't". Be especially mindful of senior dogs who may have vision or hearing issues who won't be able to see a potential danger or hear you calling them or move fast enough to get out of the way of a vehicle.

Put the dog on a leash, stay outside with the dog, or install a secure fence. Lock gates from the inside. If you get a dog and you don't have a fenced yard, expect that walking your dog is something you're going to have to do. Make sure harnesses and collars are well fitting and secure.

✨Microchip your dog. Keep your information current and up to date. Microchipping your dog greatly increases the chance of it being reunited with you if it goes missing.✨

Your dog's safety is not something to take lightly. Dogs are family and your responsibility. If you care about your pet, be a responsible pet owner!
