My story

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

Meet Prince Charles and Charlotte! These two are a bonded pair that are just over a year old and ready for adoption. Charles and Charlotte have an amazing story of resilience that is definitely worth reading. They came to the rescue last year when they were two-month-old puppies, along with their sister, Princess Diana. It wasn’t long after coming to the rescue that they were all diagnosed with Parvo and were hospitalized. Sadly, Princess Diana didn’t survive, but Prince Charles and Charlotte did. It took three months for them to recover from Parvo and when Charles was taken to the vet to get neutered in November 2022, it was discovered that he had a severe heart murmur and couldn’t get the neuter surgery. He was taken to a cardiologist where he was given an echocardiogram and was diagnosed with severe pulmonary valvular stenosis and needed a balloon valvuloplasty. With the help and generosity of many people, the funds were raised for Charles and he had the surgery in April, 2023. After recovering from his surgery with a foster, Prince was neutered in August. Charlotte has been by his side the entire time! They have been together through thick and thin, and the rescue wants to keep them together in their new home.

Prince Charles and Charlotte are very friendly and active dogs. They like to play together but they also like to play with the other dogs at the rescue. Both dogs are shy when meeting new people. Charles tends to warm up faster than Charlotte and will soon be your bestie lap dog. Charlotte takes a little more time to get comfortable with people than her brother. Both dogs also like going out to the play yard to lay in the sun and chew on their Nylabones.

If you would like to meet these two and see if they are the perfect fit for your home, please contact Chi Town Rescue to make an appointment for a meet and greet. They would love to go home soon! Call us at 602-526-0842 and/or email 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:
