My story

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

Ms. Precious — there truly couldn’t be a more fitting name for this sweet little soul



 



Ms. Precious is a 12-pound apple-head Chihuahua, about 4 years old, with the gentlest heart. She adores being part of a family and enjoys the company of both humans and other animals. Her early life lacked the love and attention she deserved, so when she first arrived in foster care, she needed a little extra TLC and patience to learn that people could be trusted. Once she did, she never looked back—and now she’s a happy, affectionate girl who loves deeply.



 



She’s fully vaccinated and spayed. Vet visits were scary for her at first due to past experiences, but with a muzzle and reassurance she handled it well, and she continues to grow more confident as her trust builds.



 



Ms. Precious does well with both dogs and cats, though she can be a bit intimidated by more dominant animals and benefits from gentle reassurance. She is incredibly sweet, calm, and soft-natured. She spent most of her life using potty pads, but she can go outside and has already shown that with consistency and routine, she can be housebroken. She’s smart, eager, and absolutely trainable.



 



She may bark at tall men initially—tail wagging the whole time—clearly wanting to be friends but needing a little time to feel safe. With proper introductions and patience, she warms up beautifully. She loves toys, happily lines up for treats with the rest of the pack, and is not a picky eater at all. She seems grateful for everything, big or small.



 



Ms. Precious loves to snuggle and would happily stay right by her person’s side, though she also does fine on her own during quiet time. She will make an incredible companion for someone ready to give her the love she’s always deserved. Give her a chance, and she’ll repay you with endless devotion, gratitude, and a whole lot of heart—for her furever home.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

We have many events in the Central Arkansas area! And if you are not in the Central Arkansas area, we are more than happy to send you videos and flood you with photos of your pup. :) We operate in New England as well, and typically are there for 4-5 days out of the month. Also, please speak to the foster parent to find out anything you'd like to know. We are more than happy to connect you!

More about this rescue

Our goal is to educate the public on spaying/neutering their pets, as well as to advocate/provide safe temporary homes for displaced, neglected, or abused animals. We rehabilitate, vet, and place in permanent homes, as well as offering transport to the New England area.
