Story
Hey there, I’m Taco! I might be small at 10 pounds, but I’ve got a BIG story to tell! I’m a 4-year-old Chihuahua-Xolo mix looking for my forever human who understands that the best things in life take time. Here’s the real deal about me: I’m what you might call “cautiously optimistic” about new people. I know I seem super shy at first - I might even hide behind my favorite toy or retreat to my trusty crate. But here’s my secret… once I decide you’re MY person, I become the most loving, snuggly shadow you’ve ever had! I’m looking for someone special - a patient soul who won’t rush me but will let me bloom at my own pace. In return, I promise to show you what true loyalty looks like. I’ll play with ALL the toys, bring you endless entertainment with my puppy energy, and give you the sweetest cuddles once I trust you completely. I get along great with other dogs (they help me feel brave!) but I’d prefer a home without little humans - sometimes their quick movements make this pequeño guy a bit nervous. My ideal day? Playing with squeaky toys, hanging out with my dog friends, and slowly but surely stealing your heart one tail wag at a time. Could you be the patient, understanding human I’ve been waiting for? Let’s find out…complete an application through the FCCR website, www.floridacockerrescue.org. ADOPTION FEE: $300

Story
Hello there, I'm Xavier! I'm a 1-year-old Chihuahua boy weighing under 12 pounds, which means I'm the perfect size for your lap, your purse, or basically anywhere you want to take me! As a true Chihuahua, I've got a big personality packed into this tiny body! I'm a happy, very energetic pup who LOVES people! I'm good with other dogs (they're cool, I guess) and we don't know about cats yet. I'm working hard on my house training and doing my best, and I'm also working on crate training and honestly crushing it! I'm great on a leash and love car rides – adventure is my middle name! Here's my favorite thing in the whole world: sleeping with anyone who has a blanket! Seriously, if you've got a cozy blanket, I'm IN. It's like my homing beacon. I'm still very much a puppy with tons of energy to burn, so I need an active family who can keep up with my zoomies and love for life! I may be small, but my capacity to love is HUGE. Plus, I'm portable – what's not to love? Ready for a pint-sized companion with a king-sized heart? Apply at www.floridacockerrescue.org Adoption fee: $300

Raise your paw to welcome Bear to FCCR! This black and tan cutie is a 6 year old, 11lb Chihuahua. Bear is a shy guy when you first meet but he becomes the class clown once he warms up to you.

Bear loves car rides too and is ready to join you on your weekly errands.

Hi ya! I'm an 18-month-old Chihuahua boy weighing under 12 pounds of sweetness! I'll be honest – I'm a little shy at first and the world can feel pretty big when you're my size. But give me some time and patience, and I promise you'll see my sweet personality shine through. That's the thing about us Chihuahuas – we just need to warm up to you first! I'm a happy guy who loves people once I get to know them! I'm also good with other dogs, though I haven't met any cats yet. I'm still working on my house training (I'm getting there!), and I'm doing really well with my crate training – practice makes perfect, right? I'm great on a leash for our adventures and I love car rides. Basically, if you're going somewhere, I want to come! Want to know the secret to my heart? A blanket! Just like my friend, Xavier, if you've got a cozy blanket, I will find you and I will snuggle with you. It's my absolute favorite thing! I'm very energetic and still all puppy, so I need a family who's ready for playtime, zoomies, and lots of fun! I may be pocket-sized and a little shy, but I've got so much love to give to the right patient family! Think you're ready for a loyal little sidekick who just needs a chance to blossom?

Story
I’m a 1-year-old, 8-pound Chihuahua boy, and yes, I’m tiny – like REALLY tiny! My photos might be deceiving, but trust me, I am SMALL. Perfect lap-sized, actually! As a true Chihuahua, I know my purpose in life: to be your devoted shadow and professional lap warmer. It’s what I was born to do! I’m a lap dog extraordinaire and still extremely playful and loving! I’m the perfect little gentleman who’s mastered the art of snuggling (kisses are optional but highly encouraged!). I want to be with people ALL the time – that’s my happy place. Crates are okay if you need them, but honestly? I’d rather just be wherever you are. I’m great on a leash for our adventures together, and I’m pee pad trained, which makes life pretty easy! I’m still very much a puppy with tons of playful energy, but I also know when it’s time to settle in for some quality cuddle time. The best of both worlds, right? Did I mention I’m SMALL? Because I am! Think portable best friend who fits perfectly in your lap, your arms, and your heart. Ready for a tiny companion with a huge capacity to love?

Story
Hi, I’m Coulee! 🐾 I’m a little girl with a gentle heart and a shy side, especially when everything around me feels new. I like to take my time getting comfortable with new people and new places, but once I do, my sweet and friendly personality starts to shine. I’m not one to rush into anything—I prefer calm routines, patience, and kind humans who let me go at my own pace. A fully secure, fenced-in yard will help me feel safe as I settle in and learn that the world isn’t so scary after all. If you’re looking for a quiet, loving companion and believe that trust is built slowly, I might be your perfect match. 💕
