My story

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

Meet this precious little gentleman — a happy, loving senior Chihuahua who proves that age truly is just a number. 💙
At 8 years young, he’s mastered the art of being the perfect companion: calm, affectionate, and endlessly sweet.

This handsome boy adores people, especially kids, and fits right in with other dogs and even cats. His gentle nature and kind heart make him a joy to be around. Whether he’s curled up beside you for quiet cuddle time or happily soaking in family life, he’s simply content to be loved and included.

He’s a dream in the home — fully housebroken and crate trained, respectful, and easygoing. He’s also fully vaccinated, neutered, and in great health, ready to step right into his forever home with no extra work needed.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a soft soul and a lifetime of love to give, this sweet senior Chihuahua is waiting patiently to steal your heart. Seniors are special… and this boy is truly one of a kind. 🐾✨

More about this rescue

Down South Dog Rescue was founded by a team Southern Ladies, who want to save all dogs and bring awareness about the High Kill Shelters of Tennessee and surrounding Southern States. We believe all breeds of dogs deserve a second chance at finding the perfect loving and safe home.

Our Mission is to rescue all breeds of dogs from high kill animal shelters and to find all of our dogs loving forever homes and to make sure they never end up in shelters again.
