Story
Meet Buddy. Buddy is a 2-year old chihuahua mix. He weighs 15 lbs. Buddy is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and heartworm tested. He is almost house broken. We don't know about Buddy's history. He was found as a stray in Dayton, OH area. We rescued him from the shelter. Buddy is very skittish. He is timid to places where he is not familiar with and may show fear aggression. We are looking for a quiet home for him. The adopter needs to be patient with Buddy. Buddy is fine with everybody. He usually stays away from the crowd and very quiet. However he has food aggression. He always fears that someone would take away his food/treats. Hence a home with children is not suitable for him. Once he is comfortable with you, he would come to greet you and let you to pet him. Buddy's adoption fee is $250. Please submit the adoption application at https://charlieswishanimalrescue.org for scheduling a meet and greet.

Story
Hello, my name is Popcorn, but I prefer Poppy. I've only had 2 families, the first for 9.5 years and I was adopted out of the shelter as a puppy. I was returned the summer of 2025 due to a divorce. My new mom has had me since August of 2025. In that time I have been spoiled and given lots of love. Unfortunately, the 6 year old in the home is terrified of me, even though we basically ignore each other. I can sense that he is afraid and sometimes I bark at him because I am nervous.....then it just makes it worse. I would like to be in a home where no one is afraid of me because I am just a giant teddy bear. I probably need to lose some weight as there is a 2 year old in the home that actually loves me and shares her food with me.....I tend to like women more than men but I can eventually be okay with them, just need some time to warm up. I am potty trained but sometimes need some encouragement. I would love to find my forever, ever home asap.

Story
Meet Lily and Daizy. They both are female chihuahua mix. Both are 2-3 years old, weigh 10-11 lbs. They both are spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and heartworm tested. Both are not completely house trained. They use pee pads inside the house. Lily and Daizy are a bonded pair. They need to be adopted together. Lily is the black/white girl. Daizy is merle in black and tan. Both are timid and skittish. Lily is the boss of the pair. She may show fear aggression to strangers. But once she warms up, she is a sweet girl. Daizy is a shy girl but warm up quicker than Lily. She LOVES to give kisses. Both like to sleep with their foster mom under the blanket. Because of Lily's temperament, we think it is better for them to go to a home without kids. Both are food motivated. Both are friendly with dogs. We are not sure how they think about cats. LIly and Daizy's adoption fee is $500 Please submit an adoption application at http://charlieswishanimalrescue.org to schedule a meet and greet.
