About Ricco
Hi Im Ricco
Im am very particular about what I am looking for. Please read carefully.
1. Must love me curling up in your lap all the time.
2. Must love me sleeping in your bed with you
3. Must be home with me a lot of the time
4. Must have another chihuahua to keep me company when you go out
5. Must cook me chicken and veges for dinner sometimes, and give me egg and yoghurt. I’ll eat kibble and certain tinned food , my favourite is home cooked food 😋
If you can meet all these criteria, I’ll consider you!!
Signed Ricco 🐾
Medical notes
9 year old Ricco is desexed, microchipped, up to date with vaccinations as well as flea, tick, intestinal worm and heart worm prevention.
Ricco had a dental in February and lost 4 teeth.
He has also had surgery for penis protrusion where his prepuce was made a bit bigger. The surgery certainly improved matters, but it still sticks out a little bit and he may need help putting it back in so it doesn’t dry out and become sore. His foster mum can show any potential adopters this simple procedure.
Adoption details
Chihuahua Rescue QLD Inc. is not a first to apply rescue group.We re-home our dogs based on the best possible family we can find them.
The first step to adopting a dog from us is to fill out an expression of interest form.
We encourage you to provide as much detail as possible about your family and your home as this helps us make sure we match you with the most suitable dog.
This form can be found at the following address: http://www.emailmeform.com/builder/form/Kczrs885x4lq3N9u4mQhca
Due to the large volume of inquiries we are unable to respond to all applications. If you are considered suitable for the dog you have applied for you will be contacted witihin one week of applying.
Please note: we do not organise any meet and greet without a completed expression of interest form.
Our adoption process involves:
1) Completing online application form - only shortlisted applicants will be contacted.
2) Arranging a meet and greet with the dogs foster carer, after which we ask you to take 24 hours to make a decision about whether you want to adopt this dog
3) A brief home visit and yard check from one of our volunteers
4) Adoption trial spanning four weeks.
We ask that you pay the dogs adoption fee at the beginning of the adoption trial, however this will be refunded if for any reason the dog is not working out in your home within the four week period. We offer a four week adoption trial to make sure that you have plenty of time for your new dog to settle into your home and so we can offer you full support during this period and beyond.
We offer a free health check with our vets at Browns Plains, Jindalee or Kedron vet clinic after you’ve adopted your dog and every dog in our care is up to date with all vet work.
