Bambi is a lovable eight-year-old Chihuahua/Dachshund mix available for adoption at our Dog Adoption Center. Bambi came to Valley Animal Center in January of this year from the local animal control facility where she was surrendered due to the passing of her owner. Nearly seven months later, Bambi is still waiting to find her forever home.

Bambi

Bambi gets along well with dogs, children, and people. She is very docile and loving, enjoying frequent tummy scratches and treats. Due to her age, Bambi would do well in a quieter home with older children where she can choose to sit in the lap of her owner(s), or run and play. If Bambi sounds like a match for you and your family, come visit her at our Dog Adoption Center!

Like all of our adoptable animals, Bambi has been spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. Bambi is available for adoption for just $175. However, for the entire month of August, all of our large dogs six months or older are available for adoption for just $100. Our cats and kittens are available for adoption for $60. If you would like more information about Bambi or any of our other adoptable animals, please call the Valley Animal Center at (559) 233-8690 or stop by the Dog or Cat Adoption Center, open seven days a week from 10 a.m.-4:30 p.m.
