Notes: Lucky came to us after the heartbreaking loss of her owner. Since arriving, she has received much-needed care for some eye issues that were causing discomfort. Lucky will need eye drops several times a day for the rest of her life, but she takes them like an absolute champ.
This sweet girl is a classic Chihuahua, happiest curled up in your lap or following you from room to room.
Because Lucky had very limited socialization in her previous life, she can be very fearful in new environments and around unfamiliar people. She will need a patient, understanding home willing to give her the time and space she needs to feel safe and settle in at her own pace. Once she trusts you, Lucky’s loving personality truly shines.
Lucky has been doing well in her foster home, but we feel she would do best in a quieter home without children. Small dogs are okay for her.
If you have room in your heart and home for a devoted companion who just needs a chance to feel loved again, please fill out an application form.

Pets with Disabilities is a nonprofit organization dedicated to dogs and cats with physical disabilities. The organization provides humane sheltering and specialized vetting for those pets in need. We also provide invaluable support, resources and education for families whose pet has become disabled or those who are thinking about adding a pet with a disability to their family.
The adoption process is designed to match our dogs with the right home.
Typically our dogs require the safety of a fenced in area. There are exceptions to this depending on the dog and your overall environment/lifestyle. Please contact us with any questions. We also require applicants to provide us with photos of your home (outside, driveway, nearest road & inside common areas), and yard (proof of fencing).
ONE BY ONE
One by one, they pass by my cage
Too old, too worn, too broken, they say
Way past his time, he can’t run and play
They shake their heads and go on their way
A little old man, arthritic and sore
It seems that I am wanted no more
I once had a home, I once had a bed
A place that was warm, and where I was fed
Now my muzzle is grey, and my eyes slowly fail
Who wants a dog so old and so frail?
My family decided I didn’t belong
I got in their way, my attitude wrong
Now I sit in this kennel, where day after day
The younger ones are chosen and taken away
When I had come to the end of my rope
You saw my face and again I knew hope
You saw past the grey, the legs wobbly with age
And felt I deserved life beyond this cage
You took me home, gave me food and a bed
You gently stroked my poor tired head
We snuggle and play, you talk to me low
You love me so dearly, and make sure I know
Although I have lived most of my life with another
You outshine them with a love so much stronger
I promise to return all the love I can give
To you my dear friend, as long as I live
I may be with you for a week, or for years
We will share many smiles, and a few tears
When the time comes, that God deems I must leave
I know you will cry and your heart it will grieve
When I arrive at the Bridge all brand new
My thoughts and my heart will still be with you
And I will brag to all who will hear
Of the person who made my last days so dear.
