My story

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

Meet Adonis! Adonis is currently staying at Chi Town Rescue while waiting for a furever or foster home. Adonis is an approximately four-year-old Chihuahua/Min-Pin mix. Adonis came from a hoarder situation, and as such, never had much socialization with people. He can be shy and timid when meeting a new person, but has made great strides with those he knows. When Adonis is comfortable with a person, he will prance around them "flirting" and seeking attention. When he's really comfortable with you, he will seek out head scratches/pets (the side of his face is his favorite). This can take some time, and anyone getting to know Adonis should realize that he won't be a lap dog overnight, if ever. Adonis is looking for a family that will love and accept him just the way he is. Adonis does great with other little dogs and loves to run and play. He especially loves to chase toys! Adonis has a fun, moderate energy level and would love a backyard to soak up sunshine and zoom around. He will do best in a patient home with experience helping undersocialized dogs. He would love a doggy buddy in his new home, and must go to a home with a secure and fenced backyard.

If you would like to meet Adonis, please contact Chi Town Rescue at chitownrescue@gmail.com for a meet and greet appointment.

More about this rescue

"Chi Town" is short for "Chihuahua Town," which is our nick-name because we found that the majority of animals we were rescuing happened to be Chihuahuas and literally have a little “town” comprised of Chihuahuas! Chihuahuas are one of the most over-bred dogs in Arizona and unfortunately many end up in need of rescue. However, we are not limited to saving just Chihuahas, we do save other breeds dependent on availability of space. Chi Town also specializes in rescuing dogs who require a little extra TLC and are at risk of euthanasia at county shelters. These dogs may not be doing well for a variety of reasons- fear, fear aggression, anxiety, or a medical issue to name a few. These are the dogs that typically have no other outlet and for which time is of the essence . After our dogs are medically cleared and/or their behavioral issues have improved, they are available for adoption.

Please be aware that we do our very best to answer all questions in a timely manner.

We are always seeking to help promote these special Chihuahuas who are too often overlooked in AZ shelters due to the sheer volume of this breed. Please share and like us on Facebook:
