Story
DOB: 5/13/2025 Sex: Female Breed: Chihuahua/Mini Shepherd/Cocker Spaniel/Mix (Per DNA Results) Estimated Adult Weight: 20 - 25 lbs +/- Meet Roqa, your future free-spirited pup ready to leap & jump her way straight into your heart! She’s a smart sweetheart who is always prepared to make you proud, and with a simple routine and a bit of basic training, she’ll happily show off how quick she can master newly taught skills…her wagging tail is basically a built-in applause meter. If you’re looking for a cheerful, goofy companion who’s always ready to brighten your day, keep you moving & cuddle after a long day; she might just be your perfect match. She’s cute, clever, and full of joy — a total “pawsitive” addition to any home. Roqa does great with all other dogs and even knows when to give them their space, she's good with cats but wants to play so would do best with dog savvy kitties and slow introductions, and a home with either no kids or older kids. Roqa is potty trained, loves to play (even learned fetch) and ready for her forever home that will give her the attention she deserves! **All Itsie Bitsie Puppies are spayed/neutered, microchipped, started on vaccines, dewormed, and vet-checked. IBR requires landlord permission for renters and a yard check for all puppies. We do not adopt out siblings. Please allow volunteers a few days to look over applications. An adoption fee applies. Volunteers will CALL if your application is selected for a phone interview.

Story
Bandit is a playful and thoughtful boy searching for his forever home. He enjoys going on walks and playing with a ball, but he may take a little while to warm up to new people and spaces. Once he does, his true personality shines—playful, affectionate, and full of love. Bandit shares a very special bond with his best friend, Luna, and relies on her presence to feel safe and secure. Because of this, it is required that the two of them find their forever home together. We are also requiring that any children in their new home be age 10 or older, to respect their boundaries while they adjust to new spaces. Bandit and Luna may do well with other dogs in their future home, but we recommend a dog introduction to make sure everyone is a great fit. If you’re looking for two devoted companions who will bring energy, affection, and joy into your life, Bandit and Luna could be the perfect pair!Adoption Price: $250* Perfect Pair with Luna (59870582)

Story
Lainey is a darling little chihuahua mix. She was born around 2/2024 and is currently 9 lbs. Lainey is happy, playful, affectionate and medium energy. She has a gentle, submissive, sweet way about her that is very endearing. She can be shy when meeting new people but has shown she will warm up with slow, gentle introductions and treats. Lainey likes playing with her toys and chewing on her chewy bones. She likes to explore in the yard and play chase with her dog buddies. She enjoys being with her people and desires to be a large part of her family’s life. She likely would not do well being left home alone daily for long hours. Lainey enjoys the company of other friendly, respectful dogs who are not overly dominant. She seems to prefer dogs around her size to play and romp around with. She will play with some larger dogs provided they are not overly rough. She does not enjoy rambunctious, wrestling type play but does love to play chase with other dogs. Lainey currently lives with well balanced dogs of all sizes and does well with them. She also lives with dog savvy cats and is respectful with them but she might challenge shy kitties and chase if they run. Children would likely overwhelm her so an adult only home is recommended. She really enjoys a yard so no apartments for her. She is crate trained, doing well with house training and learning to walk politely on a leash. Lainey would likely do well with a person who has the time, patience and understanding to help her adjust in a new home. She would enjoy a confident, friendly dog buddy to pal around with, help show her the ropes and keep her company while her humans are away from home. Lainey is a little sweetheart who is a joy to foster and is patiently waiting for her forever home.

Story
Sweet little Vixen was recently rescued and is now ready for her forever home. Her estimated dob is 7/2025 and she is about 10lbs. Vixen's ideal home: * Secure fenced yard where she can play and race around in * Another friendly, playful dog. She's used to being with her siblings, so she seeks out dog companionship. * Kids over 5yrs old She is fairly well potty trained, but needs her human to take her out every now and then (although she is learning to go to the back door to go out and potty). Currently Vixen sleeps in a crate at night (8hrs). When her people leave, she has been left in her crate for up to 5 hours at a time and does great. Vixen is a puppy still and LOVES to chew...she needs to be well supervised when in the house, until she grows out of her chewing phase. She also would benefit from training and socialization. Right now, she isn't super comfy on leash and is nervous in new places, so getting out and about will be needed to help her with those things. Vixen has a great inquisitive personality and although she is a busy girl, she is ready to snuggle when it's time to relax.
