My story

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

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

Meet Peanuttles: The Tiny Powerhouse with Big Ears and a Bigger Personality!

Peanuttles may be small in stature, but this 8 pound chihuahua is packed with personality! With ears so impressively large they might just pick up radio signals, Peanuttles is a conversation starter in every way. He and his brother Drake once belonged to an unhoused individual who, sadly, could no longer care for them. While we tried to assist, they ultimately found their way into OURS -and honestly, we wouldn't have it any other way. 

Despite his pint-sized frame, Peanuttles has no problem making himself known. He's got a classic case of little man syndrome - not in a bad way, just in a "let me tell you exactly how I feel" kind of way!

Whether it's chatting with his humans or reminding bigger dogs that he is not to be overlooked, Peanuttles isn't shy about using his voice. That said, once he warms up, he's quite the affectionate guy who just wants to feel safe and secure.

Peanuttles is looking for a home where he can finally have the consistency he's been missing. He'd love a patient adopter who will let him settle in at his own pace, and while he's cool with other dogs, he's definitely not the type to blend into the background. If you're looking for a spunky, pint-sized companion with a heart as big as his ears, Peanuttles is ready to steal the show - and your heart!

Please apply here to come meet Peanuttles!

Additional adoption info

We do our best to get back to every potential applicant but at times we are only able to get back to the strongest applicant. We are a team of volunteers who work full time jobs and do rescue on the side.

Go meet their pets

Most of our fosters are in the San Bernardino area. Our pups are fostered in private homes so appointments must be set up prior to visiting.

More about this rescue

We are a group of friends with a heart and passion for animals, especially dogs. We are drawn to the ones with the sad stories so that we can rewrite their stories and make them happy.
Each of our dogs will be fully vetted (spay/neuter), vaccines and microchip.
An in person home check is required.
