**Batista will be available for adoption at Rosedale Mills, in Pennington, NJ, over the Sept 8-10 weekend.**

A local woman found herself in a predicament and reluctantly had to surrender her beloved dog and her new born pups to our rescue. We have already found a home for the mom dog and now the puppies are ready to find their new homes. From that litter of Dachshund/Chihuahua mix pups comes Batista.

Mazie, the pup's mom, was approx 20 lbs full grown, had a very sweet nature about her and her pups seem to be following in her footsteps in regards to size and personality.

Batista could easily be named Mr. Big Adventure as he's always up for trying something new. There's no fear of the unknown in this little fellow as he approaches everything with a zeal and as if it's his to conquer. In other words, Batista is not timid at all.

Batista has now received all of his first year puppy vaccines, Bordetello and rabies vaccinations. He's been wormed, treated against parasites and tapeworms as a precautionary measure and started on his monthly flea/tick and heart worm preventatives. His adopter will have to agree to having him neutered at 6 months of age and providing proof of such to our rescue.   

Applications for Batista's adoption can be submitted at socorescue.com
