Story
Meet Neva! She is a 4 year old chihuahua mix weighing in at 8.5 pounds. She can be shy and nervous with strangers but after she trusts you she is a lover. She loves to snuggle on the couch and in the bed. She walks nicely on a leash and is potty trained with reminders. She gets along with the other small dogs in the house but would be fine as an only dog as she can be jealous. She is not a good fit for an apartment as she will bark at noises. She is spayed and vaccinated against distemper/parvo, bordetella, rabies, and is heartworm negative/on prevention and is also microchipped. She’s looking for a family who will give her all the love she deserves and with older children only. Her adoption fee is $450. Sounds like the perfect match? Head over to http://www.heathersfosterdogs.org, click on How to Adopt to submit your application online. It will be forwarded to Neva’s foster mom, who will reach out. We are located in the suburbs of Chicago and serve that general area.

Story
Hi. I’m Ernie. 10 lbs of confidence, opinions, and selective friendship. Let’s get something straight - If you’re my person? I will love you like you’re the last human on earth. Lap? Mine. Personal space? Never heard of it. Following you to the bathroom? Obviously. If you’re a stranger? Respectfully…who are you BUT - give me a minute and I’ll decide you’re acceptable. Maybe even lovable. I’m fair like that. I’m basically your classic chihuahua: - Loyal to my inner circle - Slightly dramatic (in a cute way) - Tiny body, big personality - Professional snuggler once approved The good news? I play nice with other dogs I’m cool with cats And I’m fully vetted and ready to meet. What I’m really looking for is someone who gets it - Someone who doesn’t want a boring dog…but a tiny best friend with opinions, loyalty, and main character energy Fostered in south Chicago suburbs.

Story
FOSTERED IN: Oak Forest, IL ESTIMATED DOB: 2014 WEIGHT: 10 pounds KIDS: Older DOGS: Yes CATS: Yes HISTORY: Sonya was rescued from a shelter in Indiana ABOUT: Sonya is a 12-year-old brown Chihuahua mix with a gentle soul and the cutest frosted face. Weighing just under 10 pounds, this petite girl is calm, observant, and wonderfully low-key. She came to us on transport from Elkhart, IN and has settled beautifully into foster life, showing what a lovely little companion she truly is. At home, Sonya is quiet, polite, and easy to live with. She’s house-trained as long as she’s taken out regularly (especially right after meals), walks nicely on a leash without pulling, and is excellent in the car. She has free roam of the house while her foster is away and spends most of her time relaxing in her dog bed. Sonya isn’t much of a toy lover, but she is VERY food motivated and enjoys soft food and treats—she’ll happily supervise meal prep like it’s her full-time job. Sonya does best in a calmer environment. She can be skittish at first, especially with women, but with patience and kindness she warms up and enjoys affection. She’s not clingy, yet she’ll quietly follow you from room to room, keeping tabs on her person. When it’s time to relax, she settles right in with you. She’s fine with cats and does well with small dogs, and would likely enjoy a home with older, respectful children only. One of Sonya’s most charming traits is how she lights up in a fenced yard—she bounds around like a little deer, exploring and enjoying life with surprising energy for a senior gal. Because her eyesight isn’t perfect, she’ll need some extra care around stairs and in low light, but simple precautions (like gates and guidance) go a long way. Sonya’s ideal home: • Quiet or moderately calm household • Experienced dog owner preferred • Older children only • Apartment, condo, or house-friendly • Someone who appreciates a gentle, loyal companion Sonya is quiet, adorable, curious, and such a lovely presence to have around. Give her a little time to trust, and she’ll reward you with companionship, gentle affection, and the joy of watching a senior dog truly thrive. 💕 More information and our adoption application can be found at www.luluslockerrescue.org.

Story
Jordan has been with me since he was a puppy and he’s the sweetest little companion. He’s energetic, loving, and a little clingy in the cutest way. He loves being carried, cuddling, and following his person around like a baby. Jordan has a big personality and enjoys playing, eating, and even wearing cute clothes. He brings a lot of joy and fun into a home and loves being around his people. He is not aggressive toward people or other dogs and has never bitten anyone. He does bark when he sees other dogs because he gets excited, but he’s just a talkative little guy. This has been a very difficult decision since I’ve had him since he was a puppy, but due to relocation and personal circumstances I want to find him a loving home where he will be cared for and given lots of attention and love.

Meet Muppet. She is a sweet little senior girl! she was dumped at a local shelter due to the fact that she had a lot of health problems. Chihuahua rescue took care of all of her health problems. She is now ready for adoption. She gets along fine with other dogs older kids would be OK. The foster home does not have cats, but I think with her personality she would be fine with a friendly cat, if they’re looking for a little cuddle, buddy, please consider adopting a senior
