Story
CALLING ALL CHIHUAHUA LOVERS!!! Go no further, I’m your guy. Hi everybody, my name is Huey and I’m a 9 lb. Chihuahua mix that’s about 1 year old. I’m an overall happy go lucky guy who is just as sweet as can be. I have been doing pretty good with my house training but am still a puppy with a small bladder So making sure I get put outside to go potty regularly will make you and I both happy campers. A fenced in yard that is small dog proofed is preferred but not required. When home alone I currently hang out in my crate, as I’m still a little too young to be left out on my own. I may cry a little at first but after a while I will settle down and take a nap. Because of this, an apartment may not be the best arrangement for me. Ideally, I’d love to end up in a home where someone is home with me quite a bit. At night, I love to be able to cuddle up with my human in bed. Like a little human, I like to get under the covers and I’m out like a light. Speaking of being with humans, I don’t really understand the whole personal space concept. I want to be as close to you as possible. When it comes to my walk, you may think I’ve been tipping the bottle. I have a little pep in my step, and sometimes end up walking a little crooked. I am very smart, and I am picking things up pretty quickly in my foster home. One thing I’ve learned is to sit for my food. I also come pretty well when called. As I mentioned earlier, I am young and still have a few puppy tendencies. So far I think I’ve stayed out of trouble for the most part, but I do like my little tennis balls and my bones. You may want to make sure I have plenty of those, or I may end up chewing something I’m not supposed to. It wouldn’t be on purpose, I just don’t know any better. I’m also pretty good at entertaining myself with my toys. I’d be best in a house with no small children as I can get a little nippy. Slow introductions to new folks coming into the home are probably best as well, as I do like to protect my home. Overall I’m a typical Chihuahua with a lot of personality and sweetness. I’d love for you to meet me and make me a part of your family forever. I have been vet checked, neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, am up to date on routine shots including rabies and have been treated with flea & heartworm preventatives. Huey’s adoption fee is $475. Interested in adopting adorable Huey? Then go to our website, heathersfosterdogs.org, to complete an electronic application.

Story
Sweet little senior chihuahua who has been through so much. She found herself at animal control and we quickly swooped up this gentle senior girl. Bobbi needed the majority of her teeth pulled and had a broken jaw. After recovering from surgery, she needed ANOTHER surgery to remove mammary masses. This girl is all healed up and just the loveliest little girl! She gets along with other dogs and can't wait for someone to look at an older girl with so much love to give!

Story
FOSTERED IN: Oak Forest, IL 60452 ESTIMATED DOB: 2017 WEIGHT: 8 lbs KIDS: Visitors Only DOGS: Yes, Calm Only CATS: Unknown HISTORY: Pickles came to us from an Animal Control Facility. ABOUT: Pickles is a special little girl who will need a very special adopter who is willing to manage her heart condition. (See more below) Pickles is such a sweet little girl. She can be a little apprehensive of new people at first but after a few moments she wants everyone to give her love and attention. Pickles has a special affinity for men! Pickles will bring love and joy to any home that adopts her. Pickles is housetrained, does well in the car, and walks well on leash. She is generally very quiet and only barks at normal dog things like the doorbell or an unusual/loud noise. She is crated in her foster home and does very well. She actually spent most of her time in her crate the first few days, so she does appreciate having a safe place to call her own. Her foster home said she is such a good, easy dog. Her foster said it is hard to remember she is sick because she is so happy and full of life. Pickles does well with other dogs, but can only be placed with calm dogs who will not encourage excessive activity from her. We also think Pickles will be best served in a calm, adult-only home due to her medical needs and restrictions. She will likely be fine with gentle child visitors. Pickles has a congenital disease called Reverse Shunting Patent Ductus Arteriosus. Her life expectancy was listed as 1-24 months on her cardiology report, but because she responded to the medication well, we are hopeful she will have a longer life span. Her foster home said the medication made a noticeable difference. Pickles is already quite the survivor at 6 years old! Her cardiology report states that ⅔ of dogs with her condition do not survive past 1 year. Pickles will need an adopter committed to her medication regimen as she receives 5 different medications. The cost of her medications is approximately $80-90/month. Her food also needs to be specific due to elevated kidney levels. She is currently doing well on Purina Pro Plan dry. Pickles is also to remain on an exercise restricted life, she should avoid heavy activity, a lot of excitement, and temperature extremes. Her adopter will need to expect to keep up with regular veterinary visits including potential future cardiology appointments if/as needed. Pickles is not spayed, and cannot be safely sedated for the surgery. Her heat cycles will need to be carefully managed. If you think you have the room in your heart and home for this special-needs girl, more information on our adoption process and our adoption application can be found at www.luluslockerrescue.org.

This is Geronimo - Geri for short! And what a tiny shortstack she is. This little princess came to us from animal control, and while she is cautious at first, she warms right up with love and patience! She is tiny and compact, and would be great for an apartment or condo dweller. If you're looking for a forever friend that doesn't need much space, fill out an application to adopt Geri!
