***Adoption Pending***

After learning of a hoarding situation, a neighboring county's animal control asked if SoCo Rescue could help by taking all of the dogs into our care. The AC officer explained that the owner of the dogs was disabled, indigent and unable to pay any fines that would levied against him if the dogs had to be impounded, thus resulting in jail time for the disabled owner; something that no one wanted to see happen. SoCo gladly offered help, met with the owner and came away with twenty Terrier-Dachshund mix dogs ranging in age from 3 weeks old to 5 years. Most of these dogs were suffering from various stages of fur loss, somewhat timid due to improper socialization and grossly underweight. They were all filthy, covered in fleas and infested with worms. 

Pippy has one of the sweetest personalities you'll find in a pup. She's a little on the timid side but really enjoys her time with people. She's very affectionate, playful and a great snuggle buddy. Pippy will make a great lap dog and should do very well in a home with children who are old enough to properly handle a small dog.

Pippy has already been spayed, received an update on her vaccinations, de-wormings and other such vet care and started on her monthly preventatives. She also recently tested negative for heartworms. Pippy may need additional house and leash training. 

An application for the adoption of Pippy can be submitted at socorescue.com (no registration or login required)
