Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.DOB: 8/1/2020I am a happy boy that likes my people and gets along with other dogs. I am housebroken, crate trained, and love to snuggle with my foster mom. I  am a 4 year old black Chihuahua Mix - neutered  - up to date on all vaccines - and so ready to find my forever home.   While I do love all people, it would be best that my forever home does not have any small children as I tend to get a little rough and mouthy when playing.   I do prefer that my new forever home is a home with a fenced in yard and has a doggie door.  I don’t really like the apartment life! I like to run and get in my exercise when I go out to take care of business. I do not like dog parks, there is just too much going on and I will be very vocal because not all eyes are on me! If you think I am a good match for you please put in an application and my foster mom will be in contact. Come meet me at the next adoption event!  Up to date on age appropriate vaccines, heartworm negative, neutered and micro-chipped.   Adoption Fee:   $100.00   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 7, 2025, 10:30 pm

Story
Damien is a sweet laidback 2 year old chihuahua mix who loves to play, take walks. He is a little anxious in the car and likes to be your lap but would explore new places once he arrives. Initial he is a little shy with strangers but will quickly become your best friend if you have his favorite toy. He walks beautifully on the leash. He is also crate trained but his favorite job is to be a personal assistant. I would not recommend younger kids as he is very jumpy. He also is very quiet and only parks when he wants to play. When I first got him he had a couple of health issues but we have taken care of them. He has a little bump on his belly which the vet says is an umbilical hernia which the vet check out and said it is not causing trouble so does not need surgery.

Story
Meet Miss Peggy! This senior chi-weenie gal is full of love and sass. When she's not zooming around playing with toys or dogs, you can find her somewhere sleeping under a blanket. Peggy loves her people and doesn't like to be without them. Ideally, Peggy is looking for someone who works from home since she loves being with her people so much. She's not a fan of being crated and will let you know that. While she's small, Peggy is not a good fit for apartments/shared walls since she can sing the song of her people when she is left alone. She loves to wrestle, chase, and snuggle with other dogs. We strongly prefer that she goes to a home where she can have a canine companion to be besties with. She also loves laying outside in the sunshine, but a fence is not required. She does well on a leash and loves to go on walks. Peggy is house-trained and very good at letting you know when she needs to go out. Younger kids make her a little nervous, so she should go to a home with older kids or no kids. Even though Peggy is a senior, she's quite fit. Her only "issue upon coming to us was her mouth. Years of improper dental care took a toll on her and Peggy had to have 12 teeth removed when she came to Freedom Ride. She will be good as new once she's healed from these extractions. If you and your dog are looking for a new friend, apply to meet Peggy today!

Story
Salami is a beautiful chocolate-brown Chihuahua mix with the sweetest eyes and an even sweeter heart. She was rescued from a tough situation where she became pregnant far too young, but those days are behind her now, and Salami is safe, loved, and ready to find her forever family. This gentle girl can be shy at first and appreciates a little time to feel comfortable in new surroundings. Once she does, her playful personality shines through. She loves cuddles, toys, and cozying up with her favorite humans. Salami has proven to be a trusted and well-mannered companion inside the home. She’s doing great with her house training and continues to make steady progress. She’s still working on feeling fully confident in her crate, but with patience and reassurance, she’s learning that it’s a safe and comfortable space. Salami is also learning all about the joys of being an indoor dog and has been doing wonderfully! She’s even taken it upon herself to “decorate” her home with toys in every room, just to make things feel more cheerful. Salami would be happiest in a home with another friendly dog or with humans who are home often, as she loves companionship. She also enjoys having her own space to run and explore, so a fenced yard would be ideal for her to handle her “business” privately and safely. If you’re looking for a tenderhearted companion who just needs a little patience and a lot of love, Salami might be your perfect match!
