Sugar

My story

Who doesn't love a little Sugar in their life? Meet Sugar! Sugar is a 3 year old chihuahua mix who is looking for an adopter who is going to offer her lots of time, space and attention while she is becoming adjusted to her new home and family. Sugar came into Dakin with another female dog who shares the same energy level as her, due to this, Sugar would likely do well living with a canine friend again as long as there is lots of space given to both pups while everyone is getting settled. Sugar has been a bit stressed here in the shelter and we have seen that her stress response is sitting on a person's lap and getting as many pets as you are willing to pass on to her. With how nervous Sugar can be, we are recommending she goes to a home with kids 12 years or older or an adult only home just to make sure everybody is as set up for success as possible. Sugar would benefit greatly from some extra potty and leash training with her new person. Sugar would love to meet you and get her new adventure going! Ready to Adopt?
