Story
Hello doggy lovers! I am Rooster, and I have lived with my brother, Cooper, ever since we were born in late 2019. Cooper and I need to be adopted together cuz we get scared when we’re apart. We don’t even like going on walks by ourselves! Our last family couldn`t keep us anymore cuz we were too `spensive and their big dogs didn`t like us very much. We were really sad at first, but our friends at Safe Haven are helping us to build confidence and meet new people friends AND doggy friends! Our Safe Haven pals say we`re just like Spiderman cuz we figured out how to climb chain link fences. They say that we`ll need to find a family with a very secure yard because we are very curious and like to explore. I guess they are right, but we would MUCH rather climb into a lap than over a fence! Can we climb into yours?Love and tail wags,RoosterNote from Safe Haven: Cooper and Rooster are looking for a calm family that will be patient with them while they settle in. Rooster can be especially jumpy around strangers and in new situations, and he may become nippy when he is stressed.

Story
Hello, gentle people!I am Blackie! Mama and I are a pair of chihuahua mixes, and I was born approximately 10/28/2014. We have both lived inside of a house our whole lives so the nice people at Safe Haven let Mama and me go live with a foster dad! He has other small dogs, and we get along really well. Mama and I are not, however, quite sure what to make of our other housemate, a kitty cat. We like to chase the kitty cat and bark at her sometimes, but our foster dad is trying to convince us to be friends with her. We`re still thinking about it! 😂 I am sometimes unsure of new people, but I love cuddling with the staff and volunteers at Safe Haven. Mama and I are wishing so hard for a new family with warm laps to cuddle in and a nice little yard with sunny spots to lounge in. I have all of my shots, I am spayed, I am microchipped, and I am house trained! Do you have any extra room in your heart to love a cute little old lady furever and ever?Peace, love, and tail wags,Blackie

Toots

Chihuahua Mixed Breed (Medium)

Female, Senior
Canutillo, TX
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Toots is now on the prowl for her next adventure. She came to us with a completely rotten mouth. It was so bad you could smell her before you saw her. On her intake visit the vet did an emergency dental because the infection was so bad, and Toots lost all her teeth. It took almost 3 weeks for the infection to go away. She also had a large lipoma on her chest that we had to wait to remove because of the bacteria in her mouth. She has recovered from her emergency dental and having the lipoma removed. She has gained some weight and looks wonderful. Now that she's feeling better this girl is so happy. She loves to lay in the sun or up on the couch watching TV. She will do her best to snuggle right behind you, between you and the couch cushion. She does get excited when her people come home but she does settle easily. This girl LOVES to eat. She will need a sign that says- "The dog has been fed. Don't fall for her lies." She knows exactly how to use those puppy dog eyes to get an extra treat or a smidge more kibble. Although she did have all of her teeth removed because of the horrible infection she had, she does eat kibble but small bites. If you are looking to add happy snuggler to the family, check this girl out! Learn more about me and fill out an online adoption application on the From the Heart Rescue website at: www.fthar.org. My requested adoption donation includes my spay/neuter, age appropriate vaccinations and medical care to date, microchip implantation and registration, collar, leash, and ID tag. If Im not exactly what you want, please visit my other friends in rescue at From The Heart Rescue on our website at www.fthar.org.
