GREAT NEWS…… CHIYA FOUND HER HOME TODAY!! Just a day after arriving Chiya was adopted by Emeline Gardner of Madison, WI.
Emeline was joined by her daughter Elsa (3) and son Articus (1). Chiya immediately won them over with her sweet loving demeanor. Elsa informed me after just a few minutes that she couldn’t wait to take Chiya home and that she promised to take very good care of her and give her lots of love. That is exactly what this little dog meat trade survivor needs and has waited so long for – a loving home and her own little human sister to dote on her. Welcome home Chiya – you are in good hands!
Pre-Adoption Post
My name is Chiya (“chi” as in “cheese”) and I am so excited to be in the USA to find my forever home! I am a spayed female dog, 2 1/2 years old, weighing 22 lbs/10 kgs, who survived the brutal and illegal southeast Asian dog meat trade over two years ago, in the late summer of 2013. You can read my full story here.
On January 1, 2014, I flew to Elfesworld dog sanctuary on Koh Samui (Samui Island), Thailand. I live here now – lucky me!! However, although Elfeworld is a lovely place for its fortunate inhabitants, I am not faring well here. And Elfe – mama to all 650 of us – knows that I cannot realize my true potential until I find a home to call my very own.
Elfe describes me as absolutely lovely – friendly, affectionate, and constantly craving human affection. I love all people including children and generally get along well with other dogs.
Because of my sweet nature and small stature, and because of the potential for other dogs to bully me, Elfe frets daily over my fate. i have become a little withdrawn and have a look of hopelessness on my face these days. Almost two years have passed – and although visitors and locals love me, none step forward to adopt me. My only chance for a real life with a family and home seems to be overseas.
I am spayed, current on vaccinations and micro chipped.
Are you the adoptive angels I am destined to live with forever?
Can you help make my dreams come true?
Thanks for reading my story.
With highest of hopes,
Chiya
