Story
Meet Alice! Alice is a female chihuahua mix weighing in at 7 pounds. She is on the search for her fur-ever home! Alice was born in September 2019 which makes her just over 6 years old now. Poor Alice was not treated well prior to coming into rescue. It is believed she was used as a breeder dog at a backyard breeder. She has come a long way since being with her foster family. Alice needs to be treated like the queen she is- she deserves the finest things in life! She is a fun-loving little gal, but has to live life on her terms. A few things to know about Alice: she really is not fond of other dogs, unless they are little and leave her alone, but even then, she can be cranky with them. That being said, it has been determined that Alice should be the only dog in her new home. She will need an adult only home, no kids at all. Alice also needs time to get to know new people- all of her vets talked to her first, walked around the room so Alice could go to know them, then they would pick her up and she was okay with that. Alice doesn’t like people sticking their face in her face. She should be in a home without children but is good with adults who know how to handle her and be respectful. Alice is a good eater and not fussy when it comes to food. She likes car rides- her foster family has a seat that they buckle her into but it sits on the console in the middle of both adults and Alice really seems to love that! Due to her arthritis, she should go to a home without steps; she can’t go up stairs on her own. Her foster family has a ramp but most of the time they carry her outside to go potty and carry her back inside. She should be carried or have a stroller, as she should not walk that much, except for going potty and around the yard. As she gets older, she will need more care as she will develop severe arthritis, so maybe pain meds, anti inflammatories, maybe a cart; for now, she can get around and at the times she cannot, her foster parents carry her and/or use a stroller. Will you be the one to give a gal who hasn’t had a good start to life the best possible life from this point on? Alice’s adoption donation is $300. She is available for adoption in the midwest region, which is comprised of: OH, KY, IL, MI, WI. If you are interested in the above dog, please do not email us and tell us that you are interested, but submit an adoption application. The link for the application is below. To submit an application go here: http://www.chihuahua-rescue.com/adoption-application/ An application must be submitted and approved before a meet-n-greet can be scheduled. Your current dogs/cats must be spayed or neutered unless a veterinarian has determined that your current pet(s) should not be fixed due to medical reasons. They must also be up-to-date on shots and on HW preventative. Reference checks and a home visit are required so MW dogs can only be adopted in OH/KY/IL/MI/WI.

Story
Lovely Layla is a 7-year-old, chill-as-they-come Chihuahua who has truly mastered the art of relaxation. She is the biggest couch potato you’ll ever meet and would be perfectly content spending her days wrapped up in a blanket, soaking up love and belly rubs. Layla is housebroken, doesn’t bark excessively, and is both dog- and kid-friendly. While she isn’t very playful with dogs her size, she doesn’t mind their company at all. She’s untested with cats. All Layla really needs to be happy is a little hand play, some gentle scratches, and a cozy spot to snuggle. She’s a smart girl who does well on car rides once she gets settled and figures out her spot. Health-wise, she’s in great shape and just needs a routine dental cleaning and a “tic tac” (tiny but mighty 😉). If you’re looking for a low-maintenance, loving companion who will happily keep you company on the couch and melt into every blanket in the house, Lovely Layla is your girl 🐾💖 You can apply at pawpatroldayton.com. Adoption fee is 285 dollars which includes microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, and neutered. All of our animals are vaccinated, micro-chipped and spayed/neutered before being adopted.

This cutie is Chance! Chance is a 7 year old, 14 pound male chihuahua mix in need of a forever home. Chance has white and cream fur, the cutest floppy ears, and a great smile!

He is also up to date on all vaccinations and has been completely vetted. He has been neutered and microchipped as well. He is heartworm negative and on monthly heartworm prevention.

Story
Meet Sophia!! She’s the sweetest little chihuaha senior you’ll ever meet. She’s got wire hair, a snaggpe tooth and the biggest ears ever. Sophia is wonderful with dogs, cats and kids. She loves a good car ride or walk and she’s a treat connoisseur. Sophia will dance for a treat and she also loves to dance when she meets new people. She’s not a barker and she’s overly friendly so she won’t work out as a guard dog lol. Sophia is a senior but she’s got some pep in her step too! All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped and if over 6 months of age, heartworm tested and on heartworm preventative in their foster home. We require an approved application to meet any of our dogs. We do not have a shelter location and will not arrange a meeting without an approved application. We strive to make sure the bios provided for our dogs are complete and accurate; we do understand that mistakes happen, however, so if you absolutely cannot find the answer to your question in the dog's bio, you can contact us for more information. We require a home visit for each dog we adopt out, so we adopt within a 2 hour radius of Dayton, OH. If you are outside of this radius, we encourage you to contact your local rescue or shelter.   November 22, 2025, 11:42 pm

Hello, I'm Mabelle. I'm a dog with a heart full of love. I enjoy quiet moments and gentle cuddles. My days are best spent lounging around, enjoying the simple pleasures of a soft bed and a warm spot by the window. I'm quite independent, but I cherish every moment I get to spend with people. I'm friendly and loyal, always happy to greet you with a gentle wag of my tail. If you're looking for a calm companion to share peaceful days with, I'm your girl. I also like to play some also if I have another dog companion. Let's make wonderful memories together!
