In Foster Care
Hi there, my name is Poppy! I'm a pint sized cutie who is ready to find her forever home. I'm a 7 year old, spayed female Chihuahua who weighs in at just 4 pounds. I’m a very sweet but shy little dog. It takes me a little bit of time to warm up to a new person but I become very attached people who show me love and kindness. I love to always be near or on a person and I will try to follow you everywhere. I have met several dogs and a couple cats but I’ve been mostly neutral towards the; I prefer the company of lovely humans. I’m the princess who demands all of your attention and I don’t always appreciate sharing that attention. Because of this, I will most likely do best as the only dog in the home, or with mellower dogs my size. I am very food motivated but any potential adopter will have to be careful with what food I can eat since I only have 1 tooth! I am currently in foster care and my foster family says that I am doing great with kennel training and I’m learning to go to the bathroom outside. I am looking for a family that is patient and loving, ideally without very small children, as I can get overwhelmed sometimes. I know that once we meet, we will fall in love!

Since I’m not at the adoption center, you can make arrangements to meet me by emailing behavior@phs-spca.org
You may also submit your fully completed Adoption Profile Form to behavior@phs-spca.org and a staff member will call you to conduct a phone interview before making an appointment to meet me in person. You must be 18 or older to submit a profile.

Unless otherwise indicated, adoptable animals are located at our Lantos Center for Compassion at 1450 Rollins Road, Burlingame, CA 94010.
You may call us at 650-340-7022 to schedule an appointment, or just drop by. Drop-In hours for Same Day Adoptions are 11 am – 5 pm, 7 days a week (closed major holidays). We do our best to update our listings regularly, but we can’t guarantee every animal you see is still available. It’s also typical for us to have animals who haven’t had their photos taken yet, so you are welcome to visit our adoption center and have a look around!
To check on an animal's adoption status, please call 650-340-7022 during normal business hours to speak with an adoption counselor. Emails will be returned as soon as possible, but please allow up to 48 hours during busy adoption periods like weekends.
