Screech Chihuahua & Terrier Mix Bradfordwoods, PA

Senior Hearts Rescue and Renewal is the only licensed senior dog rescue organization in Western Pennsylvania. We do not have a shelter or a public facility. ALL of our dogs reside in foster homes in the greater Pittsburgh, PA area.

We are a 100% volunteer organization. Please respect our volunteers' time. If a dog is listed on PetFinder, he/she IS available for adoption. We cannot reply to messages, phone calls, and emails about a dog until we have received, reviewed, and approved an adoption application.

Our ADOPTION application is found at www.seniorhearts.org/how-to-adopt

Completing this application is the first step in our adoption screening process. You MUST complete the application in its entirety in order to be considered as a potential adopter. Please select "More About Us" for further details on our adoption requirements. You can meet a dog ONLY after we have completed our adoption approval process.

We look forward to receiving your application in hopes that you are able to meet our adoption requirements and provide this dog with a loving furever home.

And now a few words from Screeeeeeeeech.

I am 12yrs young and weigh about 11 pounds. I don't know what kind of dog I really am. My fur is a bit coarse and I am handsome!

I may be blind and don't hear as good as I used to. But I am friendly and get very excited when my humans are around. I can hear you when you speak loud and/or high pitched. I am also most excellent at following a clapping sound.

As for my inability to see, I think I've been blind for a long time. I am very confident even in new areas. I can "map out" spaces quickly. I have no qualms about exploring and adventuring in new areas. I especially like to wander outside and go on short walks. I like getting ALL the sniffs in.

I'm quiet when left alone as long as I've had appropriate exercise and exploration time outside. I enjoy chewing on bones and digging treats out of snuffle mats when I'm alone.

I do get excited when I know my humans are around. I like to get lots of pets. I'm not a lap dog yet. But sometimes I enjoy being held like a baby and getting belly scratches.

You may hear me screech when it's dinner time or you haven't given me my walk when it's supposed to be. When you call me I come marching to you liek a little soldier. I am a funny guy!

I don't mind other dogs. But because I can't see and don't hear great, wild, pushy, and big dogs wouldn't be for me.

I am house trained and in good health. I even just had a dental and neuter surgery.

I can be adopted within a two-hour radius of Pittsburgh, PA. If you are interested interested in giving me a furever home, you must first complete the adoption application at
