About April

APRIL is a pretty 3 year old, 7.8 pound Chihuahua mix who was surrendered by her owner. LOCATION: Pensacola, FL NEEDS: Fenced yard, calm home, lots of love! *If you are interested in meeting or adopting APRIL you must first submit an ADOPTION APPLICATION using this link- https://form.jotform.com/232395363383057 or by filling out an application on our website- aplaceofhoperescue.com* April is very sweet but needs a minute to warm up. Once she knows you, she will stay close to you. She loves to be petted and will give you kisses to let you know she wants more. She loves couch snuggle time or is happy to lie close by in a dog bed during TV time. April gets along well with other small dogs and enjoys their company. We think she would be okay as an only as long as she doesn't spend too much time alone. She does need a family to keep working with her to help her build confidence. Cats are an unknown and kids will make her nervous. She is going to be best in a quieter home. April is skittish of sudden movements and loud noises and needs a fenced yard for her safety and comfort. She barks at new people and runs away if strangers approach her. She is housebroken and will go potty outside or use newspaper inside. The trick is to put a potty pad down and put newspaper on top. April is starting to show a playful side. She discovered the toy box and is starting to play with toys. She has a couple of favorites that she brings to her bed. She loves to do zoomies in the yard. At night she currently sleeps in a puppy pen snuggled in a dog bed. As sweet as she is, we are sure she would love to cuddle with her person all night long if she had the opportunity. April has been to the vet for a wellness check, is up to date on shots, spayed, fecal tested, heartworm negative, has had a 12-month ProHeart heartworm prevention shot, and is microchipped with a lifetime registration. She is such a sweet little girl and very deserving of the best home! *We are located in Pensacola Florida.
