Meet Moonpie Cookie, our sweet 5-year-old Chihuahua mix looking for her forever home!
Moonpie came to us from the San Jose Animal Shelter, and though it took her a few days to trust, she's now a bundle of love waiting to be your shadow.
She may be a bit shy at first, especially when approached from above, but give her some time, and you'll have a loyal companion who adores neck scratches. Once trust is built, all her touches are filled with love.
Moonpie loves playtime, especially with other dogs! It took a few supervised introductions, but now she enjoys a good game of chase on her terms. She's become more active and healthy with two daily walks and controlled kibble portions, shedding some of that extra weight.
This adorable girl is housebroken, great on a leash, and gets super excited at the sight of it! Moonpie is an explorer in the backyard, taking the first five minutes to find the perfect spot to relieve herself.
When it's chill time, she sleeps well in a kennel, or if you prefer, Moonpie is more than happy to cuddle up next to you for a nap or a good night's sleep.
Most of her day is spent burrowed in her blanket or sitting right next to you, just wanting to feel warm and secure. Moonpie is the epitome of a lap dog - an absolute doll that you'll fall in love with instantly.

Umbrella of Hope does not have any strict rules on ages of children because all children are different, but our best approximation is that this animal would do best with children over the age of 5
Umbrella of Hope is an all-volunteer, donation-run, non-profit animal rescue based out of Pittsburg, CA that rescues animals from local shelters, places them in private foster homes, provides them with needed medical care and then finds them new homes.
Also, ask us about our seniors for seniors program, where we adopt animals 5 years or older to qualified homes with a $5 donation as an adoption fee. All animals are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, treated for parasites and given any additional treatments (dental work, bloodwork etc) as recommended by our vet.
Adoptions to veterans of the US Armed Services are ALWAYS free to thank you for your service.
We thank Well Pet Vet Clinic for providing most of our veterinary services and give a special thanks to volunteer photographers Tanya, Barbara, Kristy, Christine, Teressa and Natalie. We are on all social media at @umbrellaofhope and we invite you to follow us and share which helps more people see and adopt our pets.
