Hi, my name is Paige. I am a 2-3 year old Chihuahua mix girl who is looking for a lap or neck to snuggle with. I weigh approx 16 lbs, but think I'm about 5 lbs. I came in to the rescue pregnant from a house with a lot of other dogs. I prefer dogs my own size or smaller and am okay with cats. I am afraid of dogs bigger than me and should not go to a home with any. My foster does not know how I would do with smaller kids, but does not think if given the time to warm up, that it would be a problem. I do take a couple of days to open up and show my playful, snuggly side so patience is a must. I promise that once I do warm up, I am a stage five clinger. I am still working on house training, but am puppy pad trained. My adoption fee is $450 and that covers my spay, microchip, heartworm test, and shots. To apply please go to https://www.chihuahuarescuein.org/

The inquiry isn't the same as an application. A complete application is needed to meet a pet.
2.
Meet the Pet
Once the completed application is recieved and approved, the meeting is set up. You will be contacted by the foster for the pet.
3.
Home Check
A home check is done either in person or remotely to assess the practicality of the home and environment for the pet you are interested in.
4.
Pay Fee
The adoption fees for the pets range from $375 and up depending on the pet. We have 2 programs that offer a discount, for seniors & veterans
Additional adoption info
**If you are unable to pay the adoption fee ($375 and up), we are unable to place a dog in your care. Being unable to meet the financial obligations of pet care (recurrent or emergent) is one of many reasons why so many of these pets end up in rescue. It's not lack of love.**
We require an adoption application, and then we will check references. We also check with vets. If the person is not LOCAL then we will partner with a local animal control to complete a home visit.
There are adoption fees associated with the costs of veterinary care of the pet. We require an adoption contract to be signed to finalize the adoption process and we have an agreement that all our pets are to be Chihuahua Rescue Indiana Inc. pets for LIFE. In other words, in the event that they can not stay in their adoptive home, they are not to be surrendered to another individual or rescue.

More about this rescue
Chihuahua Rescue Indiana Inc. is a non profit, all volunteer rescue working with Chihuahuas and Chihuahua mixes. The pets are housed in individual volunteer foster homes, not kennels or shelters until they are adopted permanently. We get to know our animals and therefore can tell the potential adopter what the traits of the animal are and what home would be the best for the pet. We are dedicated to the adoption, education, rescue and transportation of the Chihuahua breed. We believe that every Chihuahua deserves a loving home.
