Story
Rosie is a tiny survivor with the biggest heart. This sweet young Chihuahua mix weighs just 10 pounds and is ready to find the forever family she’s always deserved. She was found wandering rural country roads in North Carolina with her two friends. Based on their circumstances, we suspect they may have been used for breeding. Thankfully, all three are now safe and getting the love and care they’ve always needed.When Rosie first arrived in foster care, she was understandably timid and scared. With patience and kindness, she has made wonderful progress and continues to blossom every day. She may still be a little shy when meeting new people, but she warms up quickly and soon becomes a devoted little shadow. She absolutely loves attention, cuddling, and belly rubs, and nothing makes her happier than being close to her people.Rosie gets along beautifully with dogs of all sizes and would be happy in a home with or without another canine companion. She hasn’t been introduced to cats yet. She is potty trained and sleeps well in her crate at night and while her foster parents are at work. She may whimper for a minute or two when first crated, but settles down quickly.Rosie recently tested positive for heartworms and has already started treatment. The good news is that her prognosis is excellent, and BCAA will cover all costs associated with completing her heartworm treatment after adoption, so her new family can focus on loving her while she finishes her road to recovery.One look into Rosie’s stunning blue eyes and you’ll be smitten. They’re as unique and beautiful as her gentle spirit. She is the total package—sweet, affectionate, well-mannered, and full of love to give. All that’s missing is a family to show her that she’ll never have to fend for herself again. Could Rosie be the little girl you’ve been waiting for?

PLEASE NOTE: Our adoption fee helps to cover our expenses and includes all shots, *age appropriate*, distemper and rabies, fecal check, spay/neuter, heartworm test, grooming, and in many cases dental and also the fee we pay when we rescue from a shelter.

Story
Sandy is a precious 1-year-old Chihuahua/Dachshund mix weighing just 10 pounds. She was found as a stray in a rural area alongside two of her friends. Based on their condition and circumstances, we suspect they may have been used for breeding. Thankfully, those days are behind her, and Sandy is now safe, loved, and ready to find the forever family she deserves.Sandy is the definition of a little cuddle bug. Her foster mom describes her as the sweetest snuggle buddy who loves nothing more than curling up beside her favorite people. While she was understandably timid and frightened when she was first rescued, she has blossomed in foster care and is learning that people can be kind. She may need a little time to warm up to new people, but once she trusts you, you’ll have a loyal companion for life.She absolutely loves attention, belly rubs, and spending time with her people. Sandy also enjoys little humans and has done wonderfully with children, making her a lovely addition to a family looking for a gentle, affectionate pup.Sandy is both crate trained and potty trained, making the transition into her forever home even easier. She’s a quiet, loving little girl who simply wants a family to call her own and a lap to snuggle in.After everything she’s been through, Sandy deserves a lifetime of love, comfort, and security. If you’re looking for a sweet, devoted companion with a heart full of love, Sandy is ready to make your family complete. bcaaofnj.orgInterested in adopting this pet?Click here for BCAA's on-line Application!

Story
Snickers is a darling young Chihuahua mix weighing approximately 10 pounds. She was found roaming a rural area with her two friends, and based on their circumstances, we suspect they may have been used for breeding. Thankfully, those difficult days are behind her, and Snickers is now safe, loved, and ready to find the forever family she’s always deserved.When Snickers first arrived in foster care, she was timid and unsure of the world around her. With patience and love, her sweet personality has blossomed. She can still be a little shy when meeting new people, but she warms up quickly—and once she does, you’ll quickly understand why her foster parent affectionately calls her an “attention hog!” She absolutely adores being close to her people and never turns down belly rubs, cuddles, or a cozy lap to curl up in.Snickers has a wonderfully gentle nature and gets along beautifully with other dogs and children. She’s playful, affectionate, and has just the right amount of spunk to keep life fun while still being a fantastic cuddle buddy.She’s also potty trained and does great in her crate at night and while her foster parent is at work, making her an easy addition to a lucky family.Snickers truly has everything you could want in a companion—she’s sweet, loving, gentle, and full of personality. All she needs now is a family to love her forever. Could that be you? bcaaofnj.orgInterested in adopting this pet?Click here for BCAA's on-line Application!

Story
Hi! My name is Baci and I’m an 8-year-old, 11-pound lovable Chihuahua looking for my forever home. I’m affectionate, loyal, and cuddly — I love sleeping tucked in bed, following my people around, and getting lots of lap time. I enjoy grazing and exploring outside, running in the backyard, and chewing on antlers and bones (which I tolerate well even with my IBS). I’m protective and make a great little watchdog, barking at the doorbell or when someone leaves. I have IBS and require a special prescription diet with consistent meals. I can be anxious when first meeting new people and may bark until I warm up, but then I’m a total lovebug. I do not do well with children. I have nipped at toddlers. so I need a home with experienced dog owners and no kids. If you’re a patient adult or couple who has had small dogs before and can give me the calm, attentive life I deserve, I will reward you with endless snuggles and devotion. Ready to be your spoiled princess!

Story
Rex and Lexi are ready to find their “Forever Homes.” They are 6 month old mixed breed pups. Lexi is 15lb and Rex is 13 lb. We don’t expect them to get much bigger. They are both affectionate, sweet, spunky pups They tend to be a little reserved at first but once they are comfortable its kisses galore. They may have some chihuahua in them because they do shake when being introduced to new environments or people but it does not last long. They love nothing more than chasing each other around in their fenced in backyard. Then they come inside and its “naptime.” They live cohesively with the other dogs in their foster home and the resident cat. More often than not you will find the cat sunbathing outside while the pups are playing. They also LOVE children. At our last adoption event they had 3 or 4 children in their puppy pen at all times during the event keeping them company and they loved it. More laps for them to crawl into. They are not nippy at all. They are doing great with house training. They are not crate trained because they have their own room in their Foster Home. They are in a crate when they are transported to adoption events and don’t seem to mind at all. They will both need a family that is patient and committed to all their puppy training Including continued housebreaking, crate training and socialization etc. They are both microchipped and have been spayed and neutered. They are also up to date on all their age appropriate vaccinations. They will do well being adopted together or separately. Their Foster Mom thinks that having these two together will be easier than separate. They sleep together, play together and just enjoy each other immensely. They share everything.
