Biggie is a gentle, soulful senior chihuahua who has been waiting far too long for what he wants most: a forever home. He’s the longest-term resident at Border Tails Rescue, and while he’s been loved and cared for in his foster home, nothing can replace a forever family of his own.
For years, Biggie was deeply bonded to his best friend, Wrigley, a boxer who was his constant companion and protector. They did everything together—proof that love doesn’t care about size. Sadly, Wrigley recently passed away, and Biggie has been quietly navigating life without the friend who meant the world to him. Despite this loss, Biggie remains sweet, resilient, and full of love to give.
Biggie is the kind of dog who doesn’t ask for much—just a warm lap, a soft bed, and someone who sees how special he is. He’s calm, affectionate, and would thrive in a peaceful home where he can enjoy his golden years feeling safe and cherished. He’s especially fond of companionship and would do well with someone who understands that seniors still have big hearts and plenty of love left to share.
After everything he’s been through, Biggie deserves a happy ending. If you’re looking for a loyal little soul who will love you deeply and quietly, Biggie is ready to finally go home. 🐾
