Story
A dog by any other name, just wouldn’t be the same! Fantastic Mr. Fox, referred to as FMF or Fox, is a 6 year old (almost 7) Chihuahua mix. He came to MHCR as a transfer from a local CO shelter in February of 2025. He spent the next 10 months completely kicking our a$$e$ with his allergies and trying to get them under control. AND WE HAVE SUCCEEDED. This guy is, you guessed it, fantastic. He’s been totally worth the effort and we couldn’t be more thrilled to finally list him for his true forever home. He’s on a strict diet and requires daily meds to maintain this luxurious coat and to keep his skin fully intact. Fox is around 12-13 lbs. He loves wearing clothes and fully expects a nice wardrobe from his forever humans. He is great with dogs and cats of all sizes and has proven himself to be house trained. Are you in school? Perfect! He wants to eat your homework. If you aren’t into that you can simply crate him, but be warned, he will protest that a bit in the beginning. Fox likes car rides. He enjoys walks and stroller rides. He’s never met a stranger and is quick to warm up to new peeps he meets. He has bursts of play, but LOVES snuggle time under ALLLLLL the blankets as any good chi should. We have worked closely with Mr. Fox’s regular veterinarians as well as a dermatology specialist at CSU (🙏🏻) to come up with the right blend of meds and food to keep this boy comfy and healthy. He takes Atopica, prednisone, eats a strict prescription diet, and has an even stricter list of treats – with this kind of treatment you’d be surprised he isn’t royalty. We are happy to report, we’ve spent months monitoring his bloodwork and his body has finally taken kindly to the program. Mr. Fox, unfortunately has had a handful of seizures while in our care over the preceding 12 months. At this stage he does not require medications however it is something he may need additional support with in the future. We aren’t looking for just any home. We are looking for the right home. While there are many shapes and sizes, one thing is for sure, FMF’s forever peeps shouldn’t be opposed to a dog will have some medical needs. He promises to pay them back 10 fold, though. Fantastic Mr. Fox is in foster in Black Hawk, Colorado. *We require all adopters to come to Colorado to adopt. *We do not transport dogs. * You can view this wonderful dog at https://www.milehighcanine.org/post/dogs/fantastic-mr-fox You can apply for our wonderful dogs at https://www.milehighcanine.org/adopt/adoption-application/.

Story
"Meet Tim, a big personality crammed into a teeny tiny 6–7 lb body. At 5 (almost 6), this little Chihuahua is sensitive, cautious, and learning to trust at his own very slow, very Tim-approved pace. He is adorable, expressive, and fully committed to doing things his way. Tim is a fearful little guy and will need a patient, adult-only home that understands this is a long-term trust-building situation. He does not like being picked up, will not allow a leash to be put on him (unless you can distract him with treats), and it will take a good amount of time before he is comfortable with petting. Even once he warms up, affection happens strictly on his terms. But when he chooses you, it feels like winning the lottery. Now for the fun part. Once Tim truly trusts someone, he becomes super snuggly and transforms into a tiny, affectionate shadow who just wants to be near you, still on his terms, of course. Those rare, hard-earned cuddle moments are pure magic and absolutely worth the wait. He is silly, playful, and loves his toys. He is also free-roam trustworthy, and gets along well with other dogs. Tim is looking for someone who loves an underdog story and understands that progress comes in baby steps. He needs patience, consistency, and someone who celebrates the small wins like “he sat closer today” or “he didn’t run away this time.” In return, you get the honor of being Tim’s safe place and watching him slowly blossom into the sweet boy we know he can be. If you’re ready for a tiny dog with big feelings and even bigger charm, Tim is ready to meet you." Tim is being fostered in Longmont, Colorado. *We require all adopters to come to Colorado to adopt. *We do not transport dogs.* You can view this wonderful dog at https://www.milehighcanine.org/post/dogs/tim/.

Story
Meet Buster! Buster is a 4 (almost 5) year old, 15 lbs, Chihuahua mix. This sweet, gentle boy is a total cuddlebug once he feels safe with you. He’s fully crate trained, potty trained, and walks well on a leash. Buster is smart, but also very shy—he can be skeptical of new people and needs someone who will go slow, respect his space, and let him build trust at his own pace. Once he warms up, his personality shines. With continued socialization and positive exposure to new people and experiences, he’ll continue to grow in confidence. He’s very chill, loves hanging out at home, and will happily entertain himself watching (or chasing!) squirrels in the yard. He’s great in the car, has no separation anxiety, and prefers quiet environments over big groups. If you’re looking for a calm, loving companion who will be your loyal shadow once he feels comfortable, Buster could be your perfect match. Buster seems to enjoy the company of similarly sized dogs, but he doesn’t require the company of one in his forever home. Buster is in foster in Mead, Colorado. *We require all adopters to come to Colorado to adopt. *We do not transport dogs. * You can view this wonderful dog at https://www.milehighcanine.org/post/dogs/buster You can apply for our wonderful dogs at https://www.milehighcanine.org/adopt/adoption-application/.

Story
Hey I’m Chapo, and I heard you were looking for a sidekick? I’m your guy! I love nothing more than being a lap dog, passenger prince (I’m great in the car) and your snuggle buddy! I am guessed to be a 6-7 year old Chihuahua mix, and I came all the way from Oklahoma to be your best friend. A few things you’ll love about me is I’m handsome, great on a leash, potty trained, crate trained, and want nothing more then to be by your side. However, I do get bit overwhelmed with pushy dogs and also with young children, so I’d be best in a slower paced home with another slow and quiet dog as a friend and no little kiddos at home. I’d also love to be the only dog and soak up all the love if that's what you've got in mind as well! Please come visit me!

Story
Gentle, sweet, happy Darby is a delightful older gentleman seeking a cozy home. He’s good with dogs, cats, and kids. While Darby is technically a senior, he’s not ready for retirement! He’s been on restriction for a month being treated for heartworm but he comes off that restriction soon and will be ready to get back to being frisky, barking at passing cars and people and playing tug with his foster brother. Once he gets his sass out, Darby likes to lounge on the couch of snuggle in your lap. He’s sleeping in a crate here but would LOVE to sleep in the bed with you and burrow under the covers.Darby will need to be retested for heartworm in 8 months to be sure he is clear and will need preventive and regular testing for life. Darby is mostly housebroken with regular monitoring but he will likely go through an adjustment in a new home.
