Above L-R: my Japanese Chin Girls Stormy, Sugar, and Lucy.

NEWS: HOPING FOR PUPPIES FROM SUGAR IN MID-DECEMBER!

Chin are small, quiet, affectionate dogs, originally from Japan. Their faces are flat like Pekingese, but their legs are straight, their bodies are much thinner, and their silky 'single' coats are low-maintenance. Chin are very sensitive, cuddly, and playful. Adults range from 4 to 18 lb.

Adult neutered Chin available to adopt in Georgia. Please email Sande at: bskys1@bellsouth.net.





Many dog pounds across the U.S. list their animals on http://www.petharbor.com. Most have only a week to be rescued or adopted. After 3 to 7 days, they will be euthanized. Dogs surrendered to the pound by their owners may be euthanized immediately.

Lonely? Long to be needed? Adopt a pair of homeless dogs. They will love you unconditionally and they will keep each other company when you're busy or away. Most dogs and puppies left alone all day are miserable. Please give your pet a compatible (same size & personality) companion.

Donate to rescues. Most small rescues don't have the resources to do the paperwork to get IRS 501(c)3 status for tax-deductible donations. Larger rescue organizations do. All have huge vet bills, because they rescue dogs that most people don't want -- the elderly, sick, or injured ones.

If you must have a pure-bred puppy, never buy one from a pet store! Pet stores usually buy puppies in lots from brokers, who buy them from puppy mills. Puppy millers keep dogs in small, stacked, wire-floored cages, like rabbits, spending just enough money on them to keep them alive. Pet store employees may tell you they only buy from good local breeders; it's not true! No decent person will sell their puppies to pet stores, to spend who knows how long sitting in small cages under bright lights, eventually sold to anyone who can pay the price, regardless of character or home environment. For more info see The Dog Owner's Guide online article:
"Just What Is A Puppy Mill?" by Norma Bennett Woolf.

Both "millers" and responsible breeders advertise puppies on the Internet. Ask how many dogs they have. Ask if their dogs are kept in their home or outside. Ask if they have tested their breeding stock for common defects such as eye and heart disease. Ask for and check vet and customer references. Ask if you can see where all the dogs live and sleep. Don't expect a breeder to spend much time talking to you unless you demonstrate both the ability to buy and the desire to take great care of a puppy.
