I am searching for a SMALL dog to take into my home! Is there anyone in the Richmond, VA area?

Here are a bunch of small dogs in your area shelters that need homes:

Some may not be as small as you like, but I'm sure one of them will melt your hearts. Another good idea is to make a list of qualities you want in a dog and take that to the shelter with you. Good luck!

ADD

I'm not sure I understand your added details.... If you want a dog that belongs to someone, what makes you think they'd want to give up their dog? Also, not ALL dogs in shelter have behavioral issues. Spend some time with a dog in there. If you don't like their personality, don't get it, and keep looking. Just know that some of those dogs only last a few days.

And, an old dog CAN learn new tricks!

Got to Petfinders.org and put in the specifics that you are looking for in a dog. They will give you a list of dogs in the Richmond/Chesterfield/Henrico areas that are up for adoption. I noticed that your email address and it suggests that you are going to college. Do you have the time to care for a small dog? Small dogs require lots of your time that you may need for reading and studying.

Good Luck!

i got one there and i loved her so much...

I don't know where, but a good small dog would be a pug, they don't shread, and they are pretty small.
