Story
Angel alert! Lainey is a 2-year-old Long-haired Chihuahua mix. She weighs just 8-pounds, and she's sooo incredibly soft with the most beautiful markings. Lainey was said to be fearful upon meeting new people. But, she warms up to women very quickly. She's a huge snuggle bug, who gets along well with other small dogs. She absolutely hated/was terrified of the veterinarian. But, we don't know if that's due to his being a male, or just because he's the vet. Lol! Give this girl a chance, and you will never be lonely again. She's seriously such a good dog! She is crate and potty trained, good on a leash, in the car, and for sure in a lap. Please, no young children. Please apply here: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/DBSR/Dog Her minimum adoption donation amount is $325. She is spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, dewormed, heart worm checked, and on flea/tick and heart worm preventatives. We are located in Bloomington, IL We do not ship, you would need to travel to pick up your babies if you live out of state. Your current pets must be up-to-date on core vaccines, spayed/neutered, and on heart worm prevention year round. You must be at least 21-years-old to adopt. Please have your veterinarian and two non-family reference phone numbers ready. The app makes you start all over if you leave the page to look up numbers.

Story
Skip! Skippity doodah is an 11-year-old, 10-pound Chihuahua mix. Skip's dad sadly away. Now Skip is hoping someone will give him a new home. He is truly adorable, timid but sweet, and loves to give kisses once he knows you. Skip is good on a leash, fine in a crate, quiet in the car, and would be okay with other laid back dogs. But, young kids and really rambunctious dogs would be too much for him. Skip likes to cuddle, but is willing to play too. He's the perfect balance of fun and calm. Skip is now our longest resident, and we aren't sure why. :,( He decided to advocate for himself with these words: "Hey you! My name's Skip. But you can call me Skipper because I'm in need of a first mate. I like to be the boss so I'd do okay as an only dog in the home, but having some laid back dogs around would be fine too. I'm very good at telling you how to make my meals but I'll eat them on my own schedule. I'll also let you know when I'm done in the yard (please be sure to have a fence). I'm a fair weather skipper so I like naps and rolling in the yard when it's sunny and warm, but limit my time outside if it's rainy or cold. It's hard to admit, but I'm not the best at telling you when I need to go out so frequent trips outside are helpful. My foster parents make me wear "pants" around the house as a precaution, but I am never fussy about putting them on. I can be a big sweetheart too so If you want to put me in your lap I'll give you plenty of kisses and I always appreciate a snuggly nap. Dog beds are a MUST, so make sure those are always available... a skipper needs his beauty rest. I'm really good in a crate and am happy to nap in there too. As much as I love to nap, I REALLY love to go on walks. My foster dad says I shave a whole minute per mile off his walking pace when we go out, so yeah... I'm fast... even if I don't walk straight all the time *shrug*. Like any skipper, I have a few quirks. I'm nervous around strangers (who isn't??). Things that shouldn't scare me make me jump (doors closing or stepping on crackly leaves). Things that SHOULD scare me I ignore (Roomba's, moving vehicles, lawnmowers). Sometimes I don't recognize familiar people or dogs so I can get a little barky but am never aggressive (duh, I'm the boss). I also don't trust shadows so sometimes I just bark at nothing (just like every good skipper should). All that to say, I know once you meet me you will look past any of my quirks. Now be an obedient first mate, and use those big paws to fill out an application and come work for me... your trustworthy Skipper. Sound like a match for you? Then, please apply: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/DBSR/Dog His minimum adoption donation amount is $245. He is neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, dewormed, heart worm checked, and on flea/tick and heart worm preventatives.

Story
Bugsy Malone is a chiweenie (Chihuahua/dachshund) who is 8-pounds and 7-years-old. Bugsy has the typical big Doxie voice, so he shouldn't go anywhere with shared walls (I.e apartments, condos). He likes to cuddle, will play with other small dogs and toys, watch television while in your lap, walks well on a leash, and likes to cruise around in the car with you. But, he needs a really secure harness as he is a Houdini with many harnesses. Please apply here: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/DBSR/Dog His minimum adoption donation amount is $295. He is neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, dewormed, heart worm checked, and on flea/tick and heart worm preventatives.

Story
Corky: 8-year-old, 7-pound Chihuahua. This poor dude has been misunderstood his whole life. His fear hasn't been worked with until he went to a temp foster after his mom and dad passed away. She showed Corky that he could be brave and trust. His next foster only needed 24 hours to be his best friend. In fact he now howls for attention. This little guy used to have to be sedated for nail trims. His recent visit to the vet for a neuter and dental went so smoothly! Once Corky trusts you, he's an angel! He loves other dogs and cats too. An experienced dog owner is best for this little man. No kids please! Please apply here: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/DBSR/Dog His minimum adoption donation amount is $275.

Story
Taz is a 1-year-old Rat Terrier/Chihuahua mix. He's a very thin 8-pounds, but he's already filling out with good food and lots of love. Taz was terrified at animal control, and with his foster for the first couple of days. He needs to figure out you're not trying to hurt him, and then he will come BEGGING for the love and belly rubs. He still gets a little overstimulated at times. So, you just have to follow his signals. He will crawl into your lap and lick your face until you're sure you have no face left. Ha! No young children in the home please. This poor guy has suffered enough in his short life. All he needs is a loving home with pawrents who can continue to help his trust of people grow every day. Taz gets along well with other small dogs, is pretty quiet so far, and rides fine in a car. He does well on a leash also. Taz has really come out of his shell. He loves playing with other small dogs, and has filled out nicely. He is now a healthy 10-pounds. This young cutie is going to make someone very happy!

Story
Cooper is a distinguished, 9-pound, older gentleman. He's used to children and other small dogs. However, he can be a little shy upon first meeting. Words, and photos, cannot properly describe how cute this little man's face is. He likes to roam around a fenced yard, sleep in, and basically just chill with you. Cooper is potty trained as long as he's taken out every 3-4 hours. He previously slept in a crate overnight, so no need for potty breaks while you sleep. If there has not been illness of his lifelong dad, he would not be looking for a new home. Cooper is said to be a Chihuahua/Terrier mix. He came his brother Sheldon. But, the boys are not bonded. We just know there are people out there who love the older pups as much as we do. This bud deserves to be pampered throughout his golden years. Please apply here: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/DBSR/Dog His minimum adoption donation amount is $245.

Story
Meet Tripper, the Pomsky with a heart as sweet as honey! At 8 years old and weighing 45 pounds, this charming lady has an incredible story to tell. Tripper, a loving mother who once raised the most enchanting pups known as "The Beatles litter," ensured they all found their forever homes. Now, it's her turn to find a loving forever family. Tripper is the embodiment of sweetness. Her love knows no bounds, and her warm heart is open to everyone she meets, with a special soft spot for kids. This happy-go-lucky pup is perpetually adorned with a heartwarming smile. Tripper's zest for life is evident in her love for walks, car rides, and making new friends. She's not only house-trained and crate-trained, but also adapts beautifully to being left to roam freely. Tripper is a sociable soul and gets along well with other dogs. However, it's worth noting that she's not a fan of feline friends. Though Tripper has diabetes, it's no obstacle to offering her a loving home. Giving her insulin shots is a small price to pay for the boundless affection and joy she'll bring into your life. Tripper is a testament to resilience, love, and the unwavering sweetness of a dog's heart. Give her a chance, and you'll find a loyal companion ready to light up your world with love and smiles. Her minimum adoption fee is $145 plus a $15 fee for rabies registration for McLean County residents. She has been spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.
