A5087288 Chiquita is a soulful 4-year-old gold-with-white female Chihuahua mix who was surrendered to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center along with her companion, Smokey [A5087208], on July 8th after their owner died. Weighing 14 lbs, Chiquita is overwhelmed in the shelter environment (as many pups are) and seems to be mourning the loss of her owner (and perhaps Smokey? They aren’t kenneled together since they’re male and female, but they loved seeing each other at the Glamour Shoot). Chiquita didn’t want to be on the ground in the shelter, but she warmed up quickly to our volunteer and to other people she met, and she appeared to find comfort in being held. She takes treats gently and gets along well with her small-dog kennel mates. Chiquita is a dog whom we think will blossom once she’s out of the shelter and living as an indoor pet and companion with a loving person or family.

Our Mission:

United Hope for Animals is dedicated to reducing homelessness among companion animals through spay/neuter, shelter support, photography, video and networking of shelter animals in Southern California. It is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization working to end homelessness among companion animals by supporting shelter adoptions and spay/neuter programs. Through our Shelter Support Program, our volunteers photograph and video shelter pets to increase their chances of adoption significantly. Our volunteer Adoption Coordinators help facilitate adoptions of shelter pets. United Hope for Animals supports rescue, spay/neuter and networking of shelter pets to increase their chances of adoption. UHA is not a shelter, but supports shelters to help increase visibility of animals who might not otherwise be seen.
