My personality

My story

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

Tankie is the BEST boy! He's friendly, quiet, and affectionate. Tankie was in a loving home, but there were issue with allergies, so he needed a new place. His people responsibly places him in Rescue, knowing we would complete his vet care and screen potential adopters. Tankie is a little shy but so very sweet. He will be someone's everything! Potential adopters need to be mindful of his puppiness. He chews on things he shouldn't, and he is a work in progress on his training. But he's eager to please, and treat motivated. Tankie will require regular grooming, so that additional cost needs to be considered. Currently Tankie is neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. He's heartworm negative and has been on preventative for fleas and heartworm. Tankie is not yet at his adult weight at 13#. Full grown he might reach 18#. Tankie is timid, but warms up in a short amount time. Tankie's adoption fee is $550.

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

https://www.chihuahuarescuein.org/application 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.
