Ageing chihuahua just wants to go home
Peanut is a small dog with big problems. starting with his name ...
The ageing long-haired chihuahua has been castrated, faces dentist bills that could reach $500 and is now looking for a new home.
Nelson Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals manager Donna Stringer said a new owner for Peanut would likely have to pick up the $300 to $500 dentist bill plus $80 for neutering, unless a separate donor picked up the bill.
By the time Peanut came to the shelter's care his dental hygiene was so bad that "he gagged when he swallowed due to the taste of his rotting teeth, not to mention the pungent smell". MORE

At the Human Society in Ottawa, it is all paid for by the money they get through fundraising.
A dog comes into their shelter and needs a vet. The vet does his or her magic, and it's all paid for.
There is a 7 day (or 14day) return policy, especially when it is about the lungs. If the dog has a problem, it goes back to the Human Society... no charge. Now that's HUMANE
