Foxy is a small gal (about 8 pounds) with a small request: a forever home. She was transferred to CAP from a local animal control agency for a second chance at life. One NOT-so-small problem: she had heartworms. A kind CAP foster parent took Foxy in while she underwent heartworm treatment, and now she's ready for a home of her own. Foxy has been around other dogs, and she enjoys rough-housing with them so long as she always wins! That being said, Foxy would be just fine as an only dog; that way, she gets all the attention. She is housetrained to use a doggy door, and she is crate trained. Everything looks big and scary to a small dog, and as such, Foxy needs a quiet, all-adult home where she can feel safe and secure. While she enjoys short walks and occasionally playing with stuffed toys, Foxy's real joy comes from spending lap-time with her beloved human and giving puppy kisses. Please note that Foxy does not enjoy being "caged," as it makes her feel vulnerable (can you blame her?) , so she often barks and growls when people and other dogs approach and hover over her. She warms up quickly, however, when approached slowly and gently OUTSIDE of a cage.

If you think you can give Foxy the home she needs, please e-mail her foster mom This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

All dogs adopted from CAP must test heartworm negative before adoption placement, but unfortunately, many dogs we see test positive.  With the support of local veterinarians, staff, volunteers, foster homes, and donors, CAP is able to provide many dogs heartworm treatment every year.  We owe a huge 'Thank You' to all those involved in saving the lives of these pets.  For more information on how to become a foster parent for CAP, please visit the foster parent page.

Antonia is a perfect example that not all is what it seems, especially in the dog world.  When Antonia arrived, she was a terribly scared and slightly snappy little girl, all 7 pounds of her was shaking.  But it was easy to see that deep down inside she wanted to be a nice dog, she was just so uncomfortable she could not help herself.  Further veterinary evaluations showed that she had severe pyometria and mastitis, which led to quite some time under the watchful eye of her foster mom.  Now that she has made a full recovery, Antonia has become a friendly girl who is a great companion.  She is very enthusiastic about the people in her life and would  love to spend her time with other small dogs as well, but please no cats.   Since she only weighs around 7 pounds, she should not be around young children who could accidentally hurt her.   If interested in Antonia, please email her This email address is being protected from spambots.
