Tina is a very sweet senior Chihuahua that is looking for a new home where she can bask in the sun and relax the day away. She is believed to be around 11 years old. She is spayed, microchipped, heartworm tested negative, and vaccinated. She also had to have the last 7 of her teeth removed. This should not have much of an effect on her daily life.  Her blood work shows that she is perfectly healthy for her age. Her adoption fee is $80. Please visit her at the New Albany Animal Shelter if you are ready to fall in love with this sweet lady!

Loki is a sweet boy that is roughly 2 1/2 years old. Originally found as a stray 1 year earlier, his owners had to move and were unable to take him along. He is incredible affectionate and loves attention from anyone he can get it from. However, he may not be the biggest fan of other animals. He is already neutered, current on vaccinations, microchipped, and Felv/FIV tested negative. His adoption fee is only $20. Visit him at the New Albany Animal Shelter to fall in love today!
