She has all of her shots, and she's spayed.

Here's more about Daisy:

My foster mom says I have had a very hard start to life and don't see the world as a safe place. I am shy when a new person approaches me but do have lots of love to give. I may not be a dog that everyone wants because I am just another tan chihuahua. I am more than this and have a lot to offer if you give me a chance.

Carly, terrier

Carly is a lovable female terrier dog currently housed at Animal Compassion Team of California.

She's already vaccinated.

Notes from Carly's caretakers:

Our little Carly came to us with puppies. She took such good care of them. She always made sure they came first. They have now all found great homes. Carly is just not sure what to do now that she is the center of attention. She is a little shy. She loves other dogs and instantly becomes more confident when they are around. We hope you are the one to let her be the one who comes first.

Kaya, chihuahua mix

Kaya is a sweet female chihuahua mix currently housed at Animal Rescue of Fresno.

From Kaya's current caretaker:

This girl's smile is so contagious and she forces you to smile. We do not know why her family never came looking for her. She ended up in a high-kill shelter and she was sitting in a kennel smiling at us so we knew that this jewel of a girl deserves to spoiled in her golden days. So she got the ticket of freedom to come to ARF to find a forever family until then she is hanging with her senior friends at ARF, but she would love to just please you and be in a home.
