About this Dog
To apply to adopt this dog now, complete our adoption application HERE To see our upcoming events where you can meet some of our dogs, please see HERE Age: 5 1/2 years (as of 3/1/24) Weight: 12.5 pounds (as of 3/26/24) Location: RI Snickers is available for adoption to Massachusetts residents, as well as those in the other New England states. This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped. Snickers is a very small adult Chihuahua mix, who has been living in a shelter with his former housemate Chachee, who is also available for adoption from SOS. Snickers and Chachee belonged to an older woman who died last year, and her family decided not to keep the two dogs. When they arrived at the shelter, they were very frightened and hard to handle, but now that they have adjusted, they are described as "snuggle bugs," who are "quite fun." The shelter workers think that his facial markings resemble the world's cutest little mohawk. Snickers has had no known exposure to men or children, but he has enjoyed interacting with all of the women who work at the shelter. He is so small that he may not be the best fit for a home with young children. He is cautious when meeting new people but give him a little time and he is ready for pets! He tends to be submissive when he meets new dogs, but he enjoys playing with Chachee, and will bark and chase him. He would almost certainly love to be adopted along with his pal, but they can also be placed in different homes. When he was exposed to cats at the shelter, he was initially scared, but then tolerated them in an encouraging way. Snickers was reportedly housebroken when he lived with his former owner however, he has had a few accidents with his current foster but seems to do ok with regular trips outside. He is comfortable on his leash and in his crate. He doesn't like to be left alone and will whine and bark when his foster leaves for work but eventually settles. He loves cuddling on your lap for hours and is something of a couch potato. However, he also likes going for walks, playing with toys, and splashing in water. We believe that Snickers will be a gentle and wonderful companion to whomever is fortunate enough to bring him home. If you are looking for a very cuddly and affectionate friend, Snickers is your guy! Medical Note: Moderate plaque and tartar build on teeth; no gingivitis, root exposure or blackness observed. Tooth brushing/dental chews could help. Dental hygiene is most commonly thought to be reflective of a combination of diet, hygiene and genes. A sedated dental should be considered the next time the dog needs to be under anesthesia. An adoption donation is required for each adoption; please see HERE for more information about this. To apply for this dog, fill out an adoption application on our website: www.sosarl.org/aa/ **Additional info you should know - For most of our dogs, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our dogs as an individual and do our best to describe and place them based on personality not breed label. Some dogs may not yet be in New England, nor ready for immediate adoption. There may be additional vetting, quarantine, waiting periods and/or fees depending upon your state of residence. If you have questions or concerns on any of this, you can discuss this with your Adoption Counselor.

Adopt Snickers *LOCAL* and Receive Dogecoin
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Snickers *LOCAL*'s new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised. Dogecoin is digital currency that can be exchanged for cash, traded, or held as an investment (see the "What is Dogecoin" section below).
0.0 DOGE is Snickers *LOCAL*'s current Dogecoin balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. If you adopted the Snickers *LOCAL*, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Snickers *LOCAL*'s Dogecoin here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the Dogecoin by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Snickers *LOCAL* was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Snickers *LOCAL*’s Dogecoin balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
"The fun and friendly internet currency."
Dogecoin sets itself apart from other digital currencies with an amazing, vibrant community made up of friendly folks just like you. Dogecoin is a decentralized, peer-to-peer digital currency that enables you to easily send money online.
Learn more about it on youtube or at dogecoin.com.
We want the Snickers *LOCAL*’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Snickers *LOCAL*’s balance will remain in our general Dogecoin fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
