Chopped Chillies melts into petting, then asks for more.

He could live with kids 10 years and older and he would love to have a yard. Chili could probably live in an apartment. He needs someone home with him most of the time. He might also like living with a confident dog friend.

The $145 adoption fee for Chopped Chillies includes medical exam, neuter, up to date vaccinations, registered microchip, and a one-year license if his new home is in the jurisdiction of San Diego Humane Society.

For more information visit Rancho Coastal Humane Society in Encinitas or log on to www.SDpets.org. Open from 11 AM to 4 PM every day but Tuesday.

Call 9-1-1.
