Story
Meet Astro! Astro is a fun, active 1.5 year old Chihuahua terrier mix. He is a bigger and taller Chihuahua mix, weighing in at 12-13 lbs. Astro is friendly and wants to meet and give kisses to every person he sees. He loves to play fetch and is strong when playing tug-of-war. He likes going on walks and can walk 2-3 miles no problem and runs in circles in the backyard when we get home. He does need training to learn not pull on walks. He would do best with another dog his size that loves to run, chase and wrestle. He is a medium energy dog. After play time he’s a pretty laid back dog who likes to snuggle on the couch. He is potty trained and crate trained. He can get possessive/guarding with his dog bones, and can be growly in his crate. Astro is a typical young dog that needs to learn not to jump on people. Care and training must be given in these cases. He is a smart and fast learning dog. He knows some commands such as how to sit, stay/leave it. Shake, lay down and no jumping are the next commands he will be learning. Asto’s adoption donation is $350. 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……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 midwest dogs can only be adopted in OH, KY, IL, MI, and WI.

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.

Story
Rayne is a tan, short haired, deer head chihuahua in need of a family. She currently weighs around 8 pounds and is about five years old. Rayne has had a difficult life and needs to find a home where she will be loved and given a chance to flourish. Rayne becomes very attached to people and loves to snuggle. She does not do well with other animals (dogs or cats) as she is food aggressive and will nip at other animals and people when eating or when food is present. Due to her previous situation where she was being starved, she is food insecure. She has gained weight back from this situation and has a good bill of health from the vet. At times, Rayne will nip at people if she feels threatened or she thinks the person she is with is being threatened. Due to this, I would not recommend she be around children of any age. She does not bark or bite at people when they come into the house. She starts out weary of strangers and will come around slowly to them being present in the house. Rayne eats wet food as she has lost some teeth. She is up to date on vaccinations and rabies shots. She has been on a monthly treatment for heartworms. Rayne’s adoption donation is $300. 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. Rayne is available for adoption in the areas covered by our midwest region (OH, KY, IL, MI, WI).

Story
Meet Taco & Chica 🐾 These two aren’t just friends, they’re a true bonded pair who need to go home together. Their connection runs deep, and they feel safest and happiest right by each other’s side. Chica is the outspoken half of the duo. She loves to “chat” and isn’t shy about sharing her thoughts, whether it’s about snack time, cuddle time, or anything in between. Taco brings the goofiness, often rolling onto his back and wiggling around just to make you laugh. Together, they’re the perfect mix of personality and fun. They walk fairly well on a leash together, only occasionally getting a little tangled, and they LOVE car rides. Whether it’s a quick trip or a weekend adventure, they’re always ready to hop in and go. They’re both very food motivated and love their treats, which makes them great candidates for continued training. With a little consistency, they could really build up their basic command skills and shine even more in a home environment. If you’re looking for double the love, double the laughs, and a built-in best friend duo, Taco & Chica are ready to meet you. Apply to adopt them together today 💛
