My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Bonded Pair - Honey

Tiny Chip is a 7.5 pound, 1 year old Chihuahua. This tiny boy was found in a field with a group of 6 dogs, including his friend, Honey, who is being fostered with him.

He is a goofy, silly boy who constantly makes his foster family laugh. He is steadily learning the rules of the house and is following the lead of his foster sisters to pick up leash walking. In addition to being exceptionally handsome, this young boy is very intelligent and is quick to learn new skills!

He has only been in a home for a couple of weeks, so he is still working on his potty cues and schedule.

Once he feels comfortable, he is so affectionate. He loves cuddles and scritches and will lick your face clean if you let him.

He is also a little instigator, his family jokingly calls him Dennis the Menace. When asked how it is having Chip as a foster pup, his foster mom replied, "I can’t say enough about how fun it is to have him around!"

Honey and Chip are very close and help each other to be brave, so we are hoping to place them together.

Prior to adoption, all dogs are spayed/neutered, tested for heartworm, vaccinated (including rabies, if age appropriate) and microchipped.

Additional adoption info

Are you interested in meeting one of our available animals? Please fill out the appropriate online application on our website. We will be in contact with you to arrange a meeting with the rescue pet you are interested in.

Please note that all of our rescue pets are in private foster homes and meetings will be coordinated with foster parents. Typically, after you meet the rescue pet, we will follow up with you to see how the meeting went. If a match is made, we can finalize the adoption quickly. Please note that we may require a home check as part of the application process. Thank you for your interest in our rescue pets!

Adoption fees are between $100 - $400 depending on animal, breed, age.
