My story

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

Tiny, at nine years old, carries with him a tale of sorrow and resilience. Having lost his beloved owner to illness, he found himself in the hands of well-intentioned but unprepared caretakers. Despite their best efforts, Tiny's presence didn't fit into their lives, and the looming threat of euthanasia hung over him until fate intervened, and the veterinarian reached out to us.



Behind his timid exterior lies a heart full of potential for love and companionship. Once acquainted, Tiny reveals his affectionate side, craving the warmth of human touch and the comfort of gentle attention. However, he requires patience as he adjusts to his new surroundings, needing time to decompress from past uncertainties and to embrace the security of his new environment.



A serene household suits Tiny best, where tranquility reigns and loud voices are scarce. Sensitivity to commotion marks his temperament, making him most at ease in a peaceful atmosphere. A fenced yard becomes his sanctuary, a place where he can bask in the sunlight, stretch his legs, and revel in the freedom to frolic and play.



Tiny's sociable nature extends beyond humans; he welcomes the company of other dogs and cats, harmoniously coexisting in shared spaces. His crate serves as a refuge, where he finds solace in chewing his bone and savoring his meals undisturbed. Adventures in the car bring him delight, as he eagerly explores new horizons with an infectious curiosity.



Yet, Tiny is not without his quirks. A propensity for jumping and a penchant for countertop treasures remind us of his mischievous spirit. His future companion should be an experienced chihuahua owner, well-versed in navigating the occasional antics of this endearing gremlin.



In Tiny, one discovers not just a dog, but a resilient soul yearning for love, understanding, and a place to call home—a home where his past sorrows fade, and his future shines bright with promise.

More about this rescue

The Georgia Heartland Humane Society, Inc. was founded in 1995 based upon the concept that all life is sacred and that animals deserve a pain-free and peaceful existence.

We are a nonprofit agency which receives no government assistance. It relies solely on the generosity of the public, striving to maintain its strong fundraising efforts within the community and with area businesses and corporations. We do not operate a shelter but offer services to the residents of our community and their companion animals. Our volunteers are enthusiastic in their belief that all pets deserve loving families and are working towards accomplishing that goal through community service programs.
