Story
Johnny is a resilient cream/white Chihuahua mix, neutered and weighing a sturdy 17 pounds. Born approximately in May 2021, he's a survivor with a compelling story. Johnny's past wasn't easy; he found himself on the euthanasia list, but fate had better plans for him. In June 2023, Chihuahua Rescue came to his rescue, and it was just in the nick of time. Johnny's early experiences with humans left him wary, as he was trapped and even subjected to a catch-pole. These incidents only deepened his distrust of people, understandably so. However, Johnny does have a glimmer of hope. He may have been afraid, but he showed a promising side by accepting food from certain kind-hearted individuals. Food is his motivation, and it's a crucial tool in his rehabilitation journey. By increasing his dopamine levels through positive interactions and tasty treats, he's slowly but surely on the path to recovery. Johnny's journey to trust and happiness is ongoing. Dogs like him, who have endured rough treatment, need time and patience to heal. While he's not currently available for adoption, with the right care and environment, he has the potential to thrive. It's important to note that Johnny may not be the best fit for households with children or a lot of visitors. He'll need a safe space to retreat to when strangers are around. Keep an eye on his progress and watch as he transforms from a fearful pup to a more confident and loving companion.

Story
**Lillie - The Loving Companion** 🐾 Breed: White/Brown Mix 🎂 Approximate DOB: May 29, 2010 🌈 Spayed/Female Hi there, I'm Lillie! I might be a bit older, but age is just a number, right? I'm the definition of a loving and loyal companion. I may be on a little diet (shh, don't tell me), but that doesn't stop me from enjoying life to the fullest. I'm all about snuggles, taking it easy, and sharing my love with you. Once I'm out of rehabilitation, I can't wait to find my forever home with my buddy, Rocky. **Rocky - The Resilient Survivor** 🐾 Breed: Brown Mix 🎂 DOB: May 29, 2013 🌈 Spayed/Female Hey, I'm Rocky. Life has thrown me some curveballs, but I'm resilient and learning to trust again. Losing my owner was tough, but I'm slowly getting comfortable in my foster home. I may be a bit reserved at first, but with patience and love, I'll come around. I'm great with dogs my size or smaller, and I couldn't care less about those furry felines. Plus, I'm a litter box pro! Once I'm ready, I hope to find my forever home alongside Lillie. **Together Forever** 🐶🐶 Lillie and Rocky are a bonded pair. They've been through thick and thin together, and they're inseparable. They may have some quirks, but their love for each other is unwavering. These two are like peas in a pod, and they must be adopted together. They're both up-to-date on their vaccinations and microchipped, ready to bring joy to a loving family when they're ready. Stay tuned for updates on their progress!
