My story

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

Introducing Franklin!

Franklin is one laid back guy who just wants to be loved. This little old man is approximately 11 years old and 8 lbs. Franklin was part of a 15+ dog hoarding case in Tennessee, discovered when their owner was hospitalized. While his owner was hospitalized, Animal control realized that all of the pups involved desperately needed help, and their owner was unable to care for them properly due to mental challenges.

Franklin hasn’t had the easiest of lives, but he’s a complete love bug with his person. He doesn’t mind being in a home with other animals, but would thrive in a home where he is the only dog. When he isn’t snuggling underneath a blanket, Franklin can be found searching for his food dish or exploring the great outdoors. He absolutely loves to eat and loves to be outside.

 It will take him some time to figure out his way around due to being both blind and partially deaf, but once he does, he won’t miss a beat. He must have one great sniffer! 

Franklin will need to wear a wrap or belly band when he’s inside, as he doesn’t quite know where he’s supposed to potty, but that is a minor ask of his people, considering the amount of love they’ll receive in return. 

Franklin is an absolute sweetheart, who shouldn’t be overlooked just because of his limitations and who deserves a place to rest his head and dream of his next great adventure. ❤️

He is neutered, UTD on vaccines, HW Negative and on HW preventative. 

His adoption donation is $250.00.

If you are interested in the above dog, please do not email us and tell us that you are interested, but submit an adoption application. The link for the application is below.

To submit an application go here……chihuahua-rescue.com/adoption-application/

An application must be submitted and approved before a meet-n-greet can be scheduled.

Your current dogs/cats must be spayed or neutered unless a veterinarian has determined that your current pet(s) should not be fixed due to medical reasons. They must also be up-to-date on shots and on HW preventative.

Reference checks and a home visit are required so SE dogs can only be adopted in NC/SC, VA, TN, AL, MD and GA.

Additional adoption info

If you are interested in one of our dogs, please submit an application.

We require an adoption application, reference checks and home visit before adoption.

We also require that all current pets be UTD on shots, on HW preventative and spayed/neutered. Adoption fee is $250.00 for Chi's over 1 year of age and $300 for Chi's under 1 year of age. Other adoption listings are priced as is.

We do not set up a meet-n-greet with a dog without an approved application and a completed home visit. The process starts with an application on line and when the application and references have been checked, a home visit is required. After the HV report has been reviewed by our board, a meet-n-greet will be set up.
