My story

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

Swirl is a whirlwind of a puppy! He likes to run and chase, but also tries to be gentle with everyone he meets. He's the big boy of his litter, but tends to let others boss him around so long as he's having fun. Swirl is also protective of his packmates, and just wants everyone to have a good time!

Swirl has a very minor heart murmur. He does not need any medical intervention at this time, but he does need to watch his activity level and ensure he does engage in overly strenuous activities and frequently rests between play.

Additional adoption info

We do our best to ensure our dogs and their families are happy. We don't believe the adoption process ends once you sign the contract. We are always here to help with any pet questions you may have and we host pet events for our adopters as a chance for their pets to socialize and provide a network of support.

Go meet their pets

We hold periodic meet and greet events in Columbia, MO and our adoptable pets are always available to meet by appointment.

More about this rescue

Chihuahuas are a very unique breed. They are funny, loving, and incredibly affectionate. We believe that every chihuahua deserves a warm lap, cuddles, and love and it is our goal in finding families for each and every dog that comes into our rescue. It is also our goal to provide education to others on the breed, as chihuahuas often get stereotyped as yappy and aggressive. We hope to show our local communities that, with proper training, chihuahuas can be calm and well-behaved pets, suitable for any home.
