My story

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

Meet Sassy Pants (aka Sassy)!

Sassy is a female chihuahua estimated to be about 2 years old and weighs around nine pounds. She was found as a stray and hopes her next home will be her fur-ever home!

Sassy loves to play with toys and loves to play fetch! She loves to be chased, run zoomies, and get belly rubs and snuggles. She is a great snuggler! Ideally, her new family would be able to give Sassy lots of love and play time. Once she gets to know you, she remembers and loves you, but it is best to let her come to you and ask for attention than approach her. Sassy can be aggressive when meeting a new person and has occasionally snapped at someone but has not bitten anyone. She is working with a trainer to become less reactive. She does better meeting new people if they are sitting down. She hasn’t spent much time around kids or other dogs and hasn’t been cat tested other than at the vet, where she didn’t seem to react. She walks in between large flocks of geese with no reaction, she was caught licking a bunny on a walk but didn’t attempt to hurt it. Sassy likely needs to be an only dog as she is possessive with her toys and can be food aggressive. She is suitable for an apartment or single family dwelling and is not a flight risk.

Sassy walks well on a leash. She is slowly becoming less reactive to people and other dogs on walks but will occasionally still bark or growl.

Sassy is completely house broken and does not get into anything. She loves car rides. She has a security blanket and sleeps in it wherever the blanket is at the time.

Sassy is spayed and vetted. She does well at the vet.

Sassy’s adoption donation is $300.

If you are interested in the above dog, please do not email us and tell us that you are interested, but submit an adoption application. The link for the application is below.

To submit an application go here: http://www.chihuahua-rescue.com/adoption-application/

An application must be submitted and approved before a meet-n-greet can be scheduled.

Your current dogs/cats must be spayed or neutered unless a veterinarian has determined that your current pet(s) should not be fixed due to medical reasons. They must also be up-to-date on shots and on HW preventative.

Reference checks and a home visit are required so SE dogs can only be adopted in NC/SC, VA, TN, AL, MD and GA.

Additional adoption info

If you are interested in one of our dogs, please submit an application.

We require an adoption application, reference checks and home visit before adoption.

We also require that all current pets be UTD on shots, on HW preventative and spayed/neutered. Adoption fee is $250.00 for Chi's over 1 year of age and $300 for Chi's under 1 year of age. Other adoption listings are priced as is.

We do not set up a meet-n-greet with a dog without an approved application and a completed home visit. The process starts with an application on line and when the application and references have been checked, a home visit is required. After the HV report has been reviewed by our board, a meet-n-greet will be set up.
