Story
Diva is a 5-year-old chihuahua mix who truly lives up to her name — she knows how to be both a total sweetheart and the center of attention. She is incredibly cuddly and affectionate and loves nothing more than snuggling up with her people once she feels comfortable. When she’s not soaking up love, Diva enjoys playing with her toys and showing off her playful side. Like many small dogs, Diva can be wary of new people at first, but she warms up quickly when allowed to approach at her own pace. Once she decides you’re her person, she’s all in! She has lived with kids and did well with children she already knew, making her a nice fit for a home with respectful, dog-savvy kids. Diva prefers to be the only dog in the home, as she does not like other dogs and will bark at them. She is house trained to go outside and is also crate trained, which makes the transition into a new home much easier. Diva would do best in a calm, loving home where she can be the star of the show and enjoy all the cuddles she deserves. Ready to Adopt?

Story
OTHER PETS: Maddie has gotten along well with both bigger and similarly-sized dogs while here at TJO! While a bit awkward, she quickly relaxes and attempts to initiate play after a few greeting sniffs. [Likely (Must Meet First)]OWNER EXPERIENCE: Maddie is an all-around happy dog that loves people just as much as she loves her toys. She would likely make a good first dog for anyone looking to be dedicated to caring for a new family. Experience with, or willing to learn positive reinforcement. [First Dog]KIDS: Maddie is tolerant of handling and has not shown any signs of resource guarding while at TJO. She could potentially be a good match for a family with kids, but as always interactions between children and dogs should be actively monitored to ensure that both parties remain comfortable and safe. [Likely (Must Meet First)]ACTIVITY LEVEL:Maddie is an easy-going, playful dog that loves spending time with her people--whether that means hanging out on the couch, a walk around the neighborhood, or playtime out in the yard. She absolutely loves toys, though her favorites seem to be of the squeaky variety! A blend of regular exercise and plenty of mental enrichment such as food puzzles and games will help meet her needs. [Good Walking Buddy]VETERINARY CARE: [Routine]LEVEL OF TRAINING NEEDED:Positive reinforcement training will help Maddie not only learn her basic cues & skills, but also help her to bond with her new owner while building confidence. [Minimal]GROOMING:Routine brushing will help to minimize shedding in the home. [Minimal]January 14, 2026, 2:42 pm

MUNCHKIN

Chihuahua Mixed Breed (Small)

Female, 1 yr 6 mos
Enfield, CT
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
If you would like to apply to take MUNCHKIN home, click the link next to their picture, or Visit our website at Www.godogsgorescue.org and fill out an application! We look forward to hearing from you. This little one came from a hoarding situation, we are estimating to be somewhere between 1-2 years old. Being taken out of that situation when it’s all you’ve ever known is a bit of an adjustment, they have just gone into foster homes, and with patience and a bit of time we are confident they can adjust into a normal life. Munchkin Munchkin was probably the most shy at intake, but within a few hours was already warming up nicely to her foster mom! None of the dogs were nippy, just nervous. With this in mind we would recommend no small children or hectic households. They are all used to other dogs and a confident doggy companion in the home would be great. You can apply now will be able to go home mid February

Story
🐾 Meet Goofy — The Silly, Sweetheart Star of the Disney Crew! 🐾 Straight outta Mississippi, Goofy and his Disney siblings (including the fabulous Minnie Mouse) started life as strays… but don’t let that fool you. These pups are so adorable, they could’ve easily been mistaken for runaway cartoon characters who wandered off the set. Goofy lives up to his name in the best possible way. He’s the class clown of the bunch — the pup who trips over his own paws, gets the zoomies for absolutely no reason, and then looks at you like, “Did you see that? Pretty cool, right?” His goofy antics will keep you laughing, and his sweet snuggles will keep your heart full. This boy LOVES his doggie friends, loves playtime, and loves being part of the action. Older kids? He’ll charm them. Adults? He’ll win them over. Other dogs? Instant buddies. He’s basically a walking, wagging happiness machine. Goofy will need puppy obedience training, continued socialization, and a family excited to help him grow into the confident, well‑mannered gentleman he’s destined to be. A fenced yard would be his dream playground — perfect for zoomies, silly spins, and whatever other nonsense he invents on the spot. Under all that silliness is a heart of pure gold. Goofy is loving, gentle, and ready to show the world just how sweet a once‑stray pup can be. He and his siblings are all soft souls who deserve the best life has to offer. Let’s show Goofy what a real family feels like — one that laughs with him, loves him, and cheers him on as he grows. 💛 Apply today to bring Goofy home — your daily dose of joy, comedy, and cuddles awaits. If interested in Goofy, please apply online: ADOPTION APPLICATION or email us at Info.FetchingHeartsRescue@gmail.com. Unless otherwise indicated, all dogs adopted through Fetching Hearts have received the following before being available for adoption: Thorough veterinary examination. All routine annual vaccinations, including Rabies, DHLPP Bordatella (Kennel Cough) Heartworm Test Fecal Test, Deworming Microchip Flea and Tick Prevention Heartworm Prevention. Spay/Neuter All dogs are quarantined for two weeks outside of the shelter (puppies four weeks) to ensure they don't break with disease. VETTING NOTE: Fetching Hearts Rescue completely vets our dogs thoroughly to the best of our knowledge based on communication with our Southern Vets. If anything is brought to our attention, we treat the dog. After adopting the dog, you will be responsible for following up with all vetting going forward.
