Story
(DOB 11/13/2023) Gigi loves playing with other dogs and happily entertains herself with toys, then melts into cuddle mode, snuggling up on the couch and giving the sweetest little kisses. She is looking for a home with another young, playful dog she can bond and chum around with! Her new home should also have a solid fenced in yard; no apartment or condos for this fun and sometimes chatty little bundle of cuteness! Petite Gigi is a truly special little girl with a heart full of love and sweetness. She may be a little shy at first, but beneath that gentle shyness is a girl who just wants to feel all the love and cherished & spoiled. With patience and consistency, Gigi is already learning quickly and showing just how much potential she has; she’ll be your best friend before you know it. She’s very smart and responds well to routine, reassurance, and positive training as she continues building confidence and getting comfortable with unfamiliar noises. This sweet girl is doing great with potty training, going out about 4–5 times a day, and she sleeps quietly in her crate all night. She’s enjoying much more playtime mixed with relaxing crate time, and she loves winding down with her people in the evenings. Because she can be skittish and a bit of a flight risk, careful monitoring of doors and gates is important. Want to take Gigi with you when you jump in the car, she’s also done very well traveling in a crate, making her a great little travel buddy for adventures big and small. Ginger hasn't had an opportunity to meet kids or interact with little people (kiddos) at this time. More to come as we learn more and more about this wonderful girl! Are you up for a little shy yet spunky girl who is bloosoming into the the absolute best girl, then maybe, adorable Gigi (short for Ginger, BTW) may be your paw-fect match! Gigi will need to remain on UTI food, and her foster parent will provide the information to her adopter. As part of Gigi’s $300 adoption fee, she will be spayed, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on her monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. If you have questions about this sweet little girl, you can email: Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org. If you wish to adopt Gigi, you can fill in an online application for her under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website: www.pawsforlifenc.org. ##2601247##

Story
(DOB 11/13/2023) Petite Sissy is an absolutely adorable little girl with a heart full of sweetness. She’s the perfect blend of playful energy and cozy cuddles; happy to be active and then just as content curling up for some quality snuggle time. Sissy is happy to jump on the sofa or chair to be with her people or other pups; no invitation necessary. With her gentle personality and bright eyes, Sissy is the kind of dog who quickly steals hearts. Her ideal home includes someone who is around much of the day and truly excited to invest in training, routine, and continued confidence building. A younger, playful dog is a must for Sissy; she loves having a canine sibling to play with, learn from, and follow household cues. Because of her small size, she’ll also need a secure 4–5 ft fenced yard with solid panels or very narrow spacing, along with careful monitoring of doors and gates, as she can be a bit of a flight risk. Sissy is very smart and eager to learn, especially when given patience, consistency, and encouragement. Right now, her confidence-building journey is underway, and she’s making progress with leash training and crate training. New people can make her a bit nervous at first, so she may bark briefly to let you know she’s unsure, but with a little time and reassurance, she warms up nicely. She may also alert bark when she hears someone approaching the home/yard, something to keep in mind for townhome living. These are all opportunities for positive training that will help Sissy blossom into a more confident companion. Sissy hasn’t yet had the chance to meet kids or cats, so those would be new experiences for her. With the right match, patience, and love, this sweet, cuddly, and charming girl is going to thrive. Ready, really ready, to welcome a special little soul into your life? Let’s make the perfect match for Sissy! FYI, Sissy will require UTI prescription food which our rescue will provide her fur-ever family the brand she is currently on so it can be maintained by her family going forward. As part of Sissy’s $300 adoption fee, she will be spayed, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on her monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. If you have questions about this sweet little girl, you can email: Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org. If you wish to adopt Sissy, you can fill in an online application for her under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website: www.pawsforlifenc.org. ##2601249##

Story
Willie is an 8 year old tripod chihuahua with lots of love to give! He doesn’t let having three legs stop him, he gets around just fine. Once he finds his “person,” he is a loyal and affectionate lap dog. He doesn’t care for strangers, especially men. Willie typically gets along with other dogs, but would do best in a home without children or cats. He is puppy-pad trained, but could use a little more work with this.

Story
Tito may only weigh 5.5 pounds, but he carries himself like he owns the place. At around 7 years old, he’s a chihuahua with all the classic traits: bold, expressive, energetic, and absolutely certain he deserves attention. Found as a stray with rotted teeth and skin issues from parasites, Tito bounced back with impressive attitude. He’s had a full dental cleaning with 18 extractions and is feeling dramatically better. His skin and sleek brown and white coat are now healed, and his ears are nearly there, too. Otherwise, Tito is healthy and active! Tito is what we’ll lovingly call a "firestarter". At home, he always wants attention, but also on his terms. He loves other pets and tries to initiate play constantly… unless it’s nap time, in which case he expects peace and quiet. Adding to Tito's mystique, he comes off as mellow and reserved outside of the home, whether it be for a vet appointment or socialization. He’s a tiny dog with big character: energetic, social, enigmatic, opinionated and happiest in a home that appreciates the unique allure, and occasional chaos, of chihuahuas. Tito's ideal home has other playful pets and no little kids. If you’re a chi lover who appreciates a dog that knows what he wants, and understands the balance of boundaries and spoiling, Tito will fit right in. Tito doesn’t just want a home — he wants an audience. And honestly? He deserves one.

Chihuahua

Story
Name / Breed / Age: Ludwig, Chihuahua, Senior Personality Traits: The Velcro Pup, Curious, Loveable Likes / Dislikes:  Likes: butt scratches, French fries. Dislikes: jam bands (hard to keep up with the beat) pen- he needs freedom to explore! Health and behavior history:  Up to date on vaccines, dewormed, microchipped, and neutered. Clean bill of health from the PIPs Vet!   If you’ve ever dreamed of living with a tiny, determined old man who navigates life entirely by commitment and vibes — Ludwig is your guy.   Before Ludwig was surrendered to a local shelter with his siblings, he spent far too long living in a cramped little crate. Now that he finally has space in a foster home, he’s exploring like he’s training for a very small, very adorable expedition. Walls? Interesting. Furniture legs? Intriguing. Your shins? His preferred landmark.   Despite not seeing or hearing a thing, Ludwig is wildly curious and surprisingly confident. He conquered the stairs almost instantly and now struts around like a miniature landlord checking his property. It is likely Ludwig has always been blind, but we are unsure if he has always been deaf.    Ludwig is obsessed with being scratched and he LOVES playing with his humans. Toys? No interest. Other dogs? Sure. But humans? You’re the main event. He snores with the confidence of a full-grown bear, despite being roughly the size of a sandwich.   Potty training is going well as long as he sticks to his schedule, and he’s working on basic training with a level of enthusiasm that makes up for the whole “can’t hear commands” situation. He’s smart, he’s spirited, and he’s powered entirely by determination, an amazing sniffer, and touch.   If you want a senior pup with the enthusiasm of a puppy, the determination of a tiny explorer, and the comedic timing of a seasoned entertainer, Ludwig is your guy. Be prepared to laugh a lot — this little man is pure joy on four legs. ##2588517##
