Story
Feta Cheese was surrendered, along with his sibling Gouda, to the Muncie Animal Control shelter. Gouda got adopted, but Feta didn't. He did not do well in the shelter environment, so he came to Chihuahua Rescue. Although he was neutered in Muncie, Feta's shots were not brought up to date; we fixed that. Feta's crate training has insured his potty training! You just need to put him in a crate when he will not be supervised. He's not thrilled to go into his crate, but if you toss a small treat in there, he will go right in. He LOVES going for long walks on a leash or doing zoomies in a securely fenced backyard. He is very interested in wildlife, especially squirrels, mice, rabbits and toads. Unfortunately, he's pretty hard on them. When he's frightened, Feta can be a bit snappy so his adopter will need to go slowly in establishing a relationship with him. Once he trusts you, which happens fairly quickly, Feta's warm and snuggly. Feta is a smart dog, and he needs to be kept busy. He will find something to entertain himself if you don't provide it. He completed Beginning Obedience Class at PetSmart in December 2023; he needs continued practice to be sure he retains and improves on his lessons. In the meantime, approved chew toys for "aggressive chewers" are must (he will come with his current black Kong). While he's not a fan of big dogs, Feta gets on well with the other 5 small dogs at his foster's house, except he is concerned about his bowl at feeding time. Eating in his crate keeps that issue under control. Feta hasn't been tested with cats or children yet but should do well with older kids who can take the time to get to know him. Thanks to a donated DNA test we now know that Feta Cheese is Chihuahua 35.0%, Shih Tzu 33.6%, American Pit Bull Terrier 9.6%, Pekingese 7.8%, Boston Terrier 7.2%, Beagle 3.6%, Bloodhound 3.4% which all adds up to 100% All-American Dog!!

Story
Hi, I’m Bandit. I’m a small, big-hearted guy with a talent for fetch, lap naps, and making my person feel like the center of the universe. My vet care is all up to date (including a fresh dental cleaning), and I’m on flea and heartworm prevention so I’m ready to move right in. Here’s what I’m proud of: Housebroken & crate trained. Give me regular potty breaks and watch for my “I gotta go” signals and we’re golden. Champion snuggler. My favorite move is to curl up on your lap or gently pat your face with my paw while I rest my head on you—like a little cat-dog hybrid. Fetch pro. Toss a ball and I’m on it, then right back for another round. I do have a bit of that classic Chihuahua personality: it takes me time to warm up to new people, and until I do, I may do a little dance around strangers’ feet and even sneak in a playful ankle nip. It’s just my way of saying “I need to know you first.” With my chosen person, though, I’m pure sweetness. I’m fine with other friendly dogs, not a big eater (treats are the exception!), and happiest in a calm home where I can bond deeply. Because I thrive best close to my person, I’m available for local Indianapolis adoption only. If you’re looking for a devoted sidekick who will adore you, entertain you with fetch sessions, and nap contentedly on your lap, I’m your Bandit.

Story
Scrappy is a sweet old man who LOVES to love. He loves people and loves the other dogs and cats in the foster home. Scrappy does well at home while humans are away and keeps a clean x pen. He is missing a decent amount of teeth but that doesn’t affect him at all. He is house trained and loves to spend time outside on good days. He’s a happy go lucky guy who loves walks but also loves to lounge on the couch and have a lazy day.

Story
Hello, my name is Poncho. I was born into the rescue and my mom is Paige. It is unknown who my father is as my mom came from a house with many dogs. I am a spunky, 5-month-old, who is ready to go to a foster to adopt home with my adoption being finalized when I am neutered. I have 3 rounds of puppy shots; my rabies shot and am microchipped. My foster mom tells me all the time that I am a really smart boy and that I'm her favorite even though she isn't supposed to pick. My mom is a Chihuahua mix, but I will be most likely a small to medium sized boy as I am already a chunky 10 lbs. I am a long boy with legs like a dachshund or basset hound. I have been around other dogs and cats. She does think I would be okay with dog savvy kids as long as they understand I am a puppy who likes to play. I do need to work on my house-training skills as I do not like the cold but am a quick learner for treats. The other pets in the house are under 25# so it's doubtful that he would exceed that. His momma was about 14# at delivery and is less now.

Story
Hi, I’m Bella—also known as Bell or Baby Ghoul. I’m three years old, fiercely independent, and happiest when I’m exploring on my own terms. I love long walks, slow hikes, and poking around a fenced yard looking for snacks and treasures. I do best with younger, calm male dogs. My best friend is a 2½-year-old husky mix who’s taught me how to trust humans (a little) and how to play nicely with other dogs. Having a confident, non-reactive dog buddy like him helps me stay brave in new situations. Here’s the honest part: I’m very reactive. I have low vision and anxiety, and I’ve bounced between homes because my fear responses can be intense. I take daily Prozac and Gabapentin and will need to stay on them until my behavioral vet says otherwise. I also have hip dysplasia and a subluxing patella, so I eat high-quality food and take joint supplements to keep me moving comfortably. Training has helped me a lot—I spent five weeks at Paws & Play and finished a six-week beginner course with my foster family—but I still have strict boundaries. I like to sit near you (sometimes even on your lap), but I don’t like to be petted. My foster dad worked for six months to earn a brief two-second head scratch, and only when I’m in the mood. My foster mom has been patient too and, yes, got a few bites along the way. What I really need is an emotional-support human—someone patient and active who respects my space, follows safety guidelines when meeting me, and understands that love doesn’t have to mean constant touch. A quiet home with no kids is essential. If you’re the kind of person who appreciates a one-of-a-kind spirit, I could be your slow-hiking partner and loyal companion—on my terms, in my own time.

Story
Hi, I’m Blue. A special little guy with the crystal-blue eyes and a dapple coat. I’m seven years old, weigh about 13 pounds, and I’ve taken the scenic route to becoming a real dog. I started life in Tennessee in a tough situation with more than 60 other dogs who never learned how kind people could be. When I first arrived at Chihuahua Rescue in 2020, I was terrified, tested positive for heartworms, and thought every human hand was bad news. I’d snarl, snap, and make it crystal clear that my personal space was mine. Thanks to treatment and months of patient care (and a lot of snacks), I beat the heartworms and slowly began to trust enough to “dog.” These days I’m a pro at living with other dogs and I’ve even picked up a few civilized hobbies: Secure walks. I still prefer a slip lead and calm surroundings, but I’ll show off my adorable little trot. Special toys. They help me stay relaxed and give my brain something to do. Squirrel patrol. I’ll happily chase critters and sometimes bring… um… “gifts.” Crate life. My crate is my safe space and I’m fully crate trained—it’s my personal den when the world feels too loud. Snack negotiations. I’m very treat-motivated and proudly expect a snack when I come in from outdoors. (Payment upon delivery of good behavior, please.) Here’s the fine print: I don’t like to be petted. Ever. I’ll hang out near you, follow you around a hobby farm or big yard, and be your quiet companion, but please admire me with your eyes, not your hands. I bark a lot (think of it as my own podcast), and sometimes mark inside if stressed (usually from new dogs). My foster family keeps me on doggy Prozac and ProHeart for heartworm prevention, which help me stay healthy and calm. Despite everything, I’m smart, obedient, and secretly eager to please. What I need most is a patient person who understands that love doesn’t have to mean cuddles—it can mean trust, space, and long walks together.
