Petsmart & Radar

Due to a cancellation in my schedule, I took a last minute trip to my favorite Petsmart (in Lone Tree by the Park Meadows mall) to pick up food for my Degu, a new UVB light for Panzer, and a new water dish for another of my birds. As you can see at the end of this post, my “quick stop” turned into a mini spree. (This always happens when I find items on clearance or on sale.)

At the check out counter, I turned to find an adorable Chihuahua mix starving for attention (OK, probably not, I just needed an excuse to pet him!) The minute I knelt down to introduce myself, his caretaker informed me that he was available for adoption (via Every Creature Counts.) After cooing and cuddling Radar, I promised to post his photo on my Facebook page. Tonight, I figured I’d go one step further and post his photos to my blog.

Radar is a 3 year old neutered male Chihuahua mix.

From the ECC web site:

I am a loving dog who just wants to find my forever home. I like to cuddle, sit on laps and be with my people friends. I also like to play with toys and other dogs. I would do best in a home without cats. If you would like to adopt me, please call 303-546-2704 ext 4 or email dogs@everycreaturecounts.org”



Please contact Every Creature Counts if you are interested in adopting Radar. You can read about their Adoption Process by following this link.

Chihuahua’s are one of my favorite breeds. I hope to own one someday, but that day is a long way away. In the meantime, I live vicariously through my Chihuahua-owning clients, and do what I can do help Chi’s (and all dogs) in need!

And my shopping cart at Petsmart?

This is a MINOR sampling of a Petsmart run for my household. The gerbil food is for my degu, Dobby; a new bowl for my red rumped parakeet Pongo; clearance bird toys for the rest of the flock; a new veggie dish for the guinea pigs, Oliver and Holmes; a colorful balsa wood chew toy for the green cheek conures; and a new UVB light for my Hahn’s macaw Panzer. Not pictured? All of the clearance rawhide and cat toys I bought for my clients!! :D
