Story
Hello, my name is Monty, and let me tell you—I’m so glad I ended up at Forever Loved! I came to the county pound as a sick little stray, but thanks to some expert care (and a whole lot of love), I’ve made a full recovery. Now I’m living the good life and showing my foster mom just how sweet and playful I can be! I’m 11 years young, a petite 10 lbs (and putting on some healthy weight), and a proud Chihuahua mix. I’m house trained, toy-obsessed, and great with other dogs. I walk nicely on leash, though I don’t need much exercise—just a slow stroll or a fancy ride in a buggy suits me just fine, thanks to a mild heart murmur. Now, here’s the important bit: I’m a sensitive soul who really thrives in a quiet, calm home. Loud noises and busy energy stress me out. I’m not the kind of pup who runs up to say hi right away—but give me a little space and kindness, and I’ll be your most loyal little buddy. Won’t you apply to meet me?

Story
Hi, I’m Sadie—13 pounds of sass, snuggles, and senior girl sparkle! I’m 11 years young and rocking the Chihuahua/Terrier mix life. I landed at Forever Loved after my human had to move into assisted living, but I’m adjusting like a champ. Here’s the deal: I love lap time, leisurely walks, and treats—especially treats. I might bark at strangers at first (a girl’s gotta be cautious!), but give me a snack and we’re basically besties. I get along great with other dogs—big, small, old, young, you name it. Kids? Meh. I prefer the calm, older kind who respect personal space and move at a reasonable pace. I’ve had a dental (don’t worry, I’m still cute with fewer teeth) and my breath is minty-fresh. All I need now is a cozy home, a chill routine, and someone to snuggle up with. Could it be you?

Namaste. Your yoga instructor today will be Lotus, master of downward dog and very good girl. Lotus has been practicing peace and cuddles for 10 years, both with people and with other furry friends (though she prefers people. Puppies are A LOT). She enjoys communing with nature, whether that means napping in the sun, greeting the day with a big stretch, or taking short, leisurely walks to smell the roses (and the daffodils. And the daisies. And the neighbor’s geraniums). She loves everyone she meets, and at 14 pounds, she has perfected the art of snuggling. So hop into something comfy, grab your mat or a blanket, and take a deep breath in. Hold it. Now breathe out, and as you’re breathing out, let your hands drift to the adoption button and take the next step on your journey to health and happiness.

Story
Hello, My name is Oscar and I am an 8 year old 22lb Chihuahua mix. Does that sound heavy for a Chihuahua? Well, I’ve got some really tall legs, so who knows what else might be in the mix. I came to Forever Loved as an owner surrender along with my roommate because our owner could no longer care for us. My story starts out kind of sad, because a landscaper found me taped up in a box. I was lucky enough to be taken in by my previous owner, and truth be told, my world was pretty small and I grew up a bit on the fearful side. I will be honest - I’m afraid of men and it takes me a few minutes and some really yummy treats to trust women visitors. But, once I know you, we are the best of friends. Just ask the volunteers at Forever Loved. I am reliably house trained, I enjoy going for walks in calm and quiet places, and I ride nicely in the car. I’m just now learning that going to Starbucks and places like that can be fun, so I will definitely need a patient and loving female to help me navigate my new environment. I can be affectionate and well-behaved; I just need a fresh start. The trainer here at Forever Loved will give you all the advice and support you might need because really, there is a sweet guy underneath all my fears and every dog deserves to have a loving happily ever after. Will you apply to meet me and be my hero?

Story
My name is Cami and I am a sweet 3 year old, 11.6 lb. Chihuahua mix with the softest coat, perfect for petting and stroking. I came to Forever Loved after being scooped up from the Pinal county pound. Everyone thought I was 7 years old until I saw the vet and he said I’m only 3!! I snuck in to a senior dog rescue and boy am I glad!! I quickly went to a loving foster home with another pal and we have been living a life of love and luxury. My foster mom says I am such a sweet girl with great house manners. I am reliably house trained and I never fight over food or attention. I really like having another dog around because I can be somewhat shy at first. I’ve never worn a collar or walked on a leash, so those things are still a bit new to me right now. I’m actually very happy just hanging around my foster home with a lovely yard to explore. About the only time I bark is when I hear something while I’m out there. I ride nicely in a car, too I have to confess - I’m a bit of a princess and don’t really like going out to potty on a stormy, rainy night, but I am perfect at using potty pads. Other than that, I happily go outside to do my “business”. I sleep quietly in my dog bed, and I love to nap on a cozy warm lap. Could I come try out your lap?? Please apply to meet me, I’m a gem of a darling girl.
