My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

As you can see by Chantilly's photos and video, she was in horrible condition when we rescued her from the kill list. Her little body was matted to the skin, drenched in urine and unable to walk normally due to the mats on her legs and stomach! Despite her tragic state Chantilly was as sweet as can be. Even when we got out the noisy shaving device she sat patiently, undoubtedly aware that we were trying to help her. Finally the filth was removed from her. We gave her a warm, soothing bath and thanks to a caring supporter we fit her with a handmade harness to protect her pink skin from the sun. You could tell Chantilly was not only feeling better but she was happy! She proudly walks around, strutting her stuff!

Our sweet, little girl is a huge hit with all the volunteers. Here are just a few of the raves about this precious beauty:

"Chantilly is such a lovely little girl. She has excellent leash manners and is such a lover. She loves her belly rubbed and is so friendly to everyone."

"Chantilly is a sweet and friendly dog. She is very good natured and has a very proud walk."

"Chantilly is as sweet as can be. Walking her is a riot, as she is a prancer. We took a nice long walk, and she did really well. Then we visited some nice ladies at the Rec center. Chantilly was quite a hit!! Chantilly enjoyed a cool drink, some treats and plenty of attention. We "pranced " back to the grass area for some relaxation."

Our princess deserves to live a pampered life for all the day so her life. She needs a home with daily walks, hanging out at the local coffee shop would be a special treat for our social gal and of course plenty of affectionate for our loving gal! Chantilly enjoys canine companionship and would like to have another small dog in her forever home too. Of course every princess needs to have fluffy beds to sleep on and because of her fair skin, she'll need some pretty doggie outfits to protect her from the Arizona sun. So if you're looking for a "girly" dog Chantilly is the dog for you! Please fill out an application for her today - www.azrescue.org!

Chantilly weighed 5.6 pounds when we saved her from the kill list.
