Hello, my name is Poncho. I was born into the rescue and my mom is Paige. It is unknown who my father is as my mom came from a house with many dogs. I am a spunky, 5-month-old, who is ready to go to a foster to adopt home with my adoption being finalized when I am neutered. I have 3 rounds of puppy shots; my rabies shot and am microchipped. My foster mom tells me all the time that I am a really smart boy and that I'm her favorite even though she isn't supposed to pick. My mom is a Chihuahua mix, but I will be most likely a small to medium sized boy as I am already a chunky 10 lbs. I am a long boy with legs like a dachshund or basset hound. I have been around other dogs and cats. She does think I would be okay with dog savvy kids as long as they understand I am a puppy who likes to play. I do need to work on my house-training skills as I do not like the cold but am a quick learner for treats.
The other pets in the house are under 25# so it's doubtful that he would exceed that. His momma was about 14# at delivery and is less now.

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.
