Story
Max is an amazing dog . I have a newborn and I just dont have time to tend to him the way I used to . I want him to go to a good home with loving owners . The only thing I would say is max does not do well with children between the ages of 1-2 . If they're rough he doesn't want to be touched by them . Other than that he's very friendly and can be timid around other dogs but does not attack . He respond to go potty, down, cage etc. Max is trained to potty indoor and out . He is pad trained and can walk without a leash. Max will only bark when he hear a noise at the door letting you know someone is outside . Other than that he does not unnecessarily bark, bite, or shake (like most Chihuahuas). Max is very easy going and will adjust well in any home that welcomes him with open arms .

Annie is being fostered in PA. If you have a lap, we have your dog! Looking for a loyal friend with a heart full of love? Annie, a beautiful senior chihuahua with a majestic grey muzzle, is ready to bring warmth and joy into your home. With her gentle nature and affectionate demeanor, she's the perfect companion for someone seeking a devoted friend. Annie is house-trained and enjoys short walks. She loves curling up in cozy spots and is always ready for a cuddle session. She’s great with other dogs and even cats! She’ll be happy in a home with adult or older children who were around a lot to give her hugs and chin scratches. Annie needs a soft place to land and enjoy her senior days. Do you have a lap for her? BDRA has voted against the use of electrical fencing effective immediately.

Story
We accept applications within 1hour drive of Claymont DE 19703. Mr Cookie has quite a little story. He originally was brought into a facility as a stray. Since no testicles were seen they assumed he was neutered. Male dogs that are not neutered typically have a chip on their shoulder and this guy sure did. He was adopted out and returned. He was then transferred to a rescue, where he was adopted out and returned. Someone sent his bio to his current foster mom because these are type of dogs she likes to help. They worked on things for months but something just wasn’t right. She thought MAYBE a testicle didn't drop and someone didn't do a full neuter. Was she surprised when the vet felt 2 testicles that didn’t drop! This explained everything. So Cookie was finally neutered! But sadly he had some learned behaviors (he was about 2 years old now) and also is was obvious that he had been abused because of it. It’s been a long road, but this dog is amazing and all he wants to do is please and be loved. His ideal forever home would be a parent or 2, no children and another dog. Another dog isn’t a requirement but doggie play dates would be nice. We think he would miss playing and wrestling with another 4 legged friend. Cookie is crate trained, we can not say he is house broken. He loves to play with his tiny Kong tennis ball. He will even put it on the ramp himself so it rolls down and he can chase it. He IS neutered and UTD on vaccines, HW negative, and microchipped. Please email us gor an application AOLanimalrescue@gmail.com. Please remember chi experience is necessary for this special pup. .

Story
We prefer adopters be within 1 hour drive of Claymont, DE 19703. Sweet Oreo joined All Our Love Animal Rescue when his previous family could no longer care for him. Oreo is a typical chi, tiny who thinks he’s mighty🙄 He likes to play with other pups, but he likes to be the boss so let’s call him dog selective. He was an only pup before coming into the rescue, and he would be fine as an only pup, but play dates with friends is always a good thing, to help keep him from becoming reactive when out and about. Oreo does get nervous in the car, so foster mom is taking him out on small errands in hope that he becomes more comfortable and can relax. Oreo definitely is all snuggles when it’s his turn to sleep with foster mom. We feel Oreo would do best in an adult home, with teenagers and older. We do require chihuahua experience. This breed can be spicy at times, and the parents can’t or shouldn’t allow them to rule the house. Once everyone knows their true place in the pack, spoiling them rotten and allowing them to think they are the boss can be fun at times. But they need that structure at first. Oreo has been neutered, vaccinated, HW & Lyme checked (both negative) and he is microchipped. If you would like to inquire more about Oreo please email us at AOLanimalrescue@gmail.com. We want nothing more than to help Oreo find his forever home.

Story
Roger is a resilient 1 year old chihuahua mix. He came to us after having been rescued at 4 months from an abusive home and then adopted for a few months by what we have been told was a neglectful home. When we first took him in from the SPCA he had no training; he did not even seem to be familiar with a leash. We are first time dog owners who have been working with Roger for the past four months. He is very smart and has been quick to learn commands and is successful with training. We love him and love getting to spend time with him when he can be calm or playful. That being said, we have struggled in supporting him behaviorally. We have worked closely with a vet to try different medications as Roger is highly anxious and reactive. This makes sense due to his very inconsistent life thus far. He can be everything from inconsolable to destructive when left alone.

Story
I adopted Kilo from ACCT Philly shortly after his 5th birthday (DOB 6/8/17). Kilo is outgoing and playful like a pup, however, sometimes he can be guarded. He’s anxious in new environments and when touched by strangers. He’s good w/ home baths, however, going to groomers has been difficult (especially nail and oral care). He has a bite history. He was doing good for almost 1.5yrs. However, bit a groomer Oct 2024 for pulling his leash. Add info: He snuggles on the couch and has been a great comfort. He’ll spend time in a crate when you’re away. He will use pads (currently I have his outside his crate), though sometimes he may have an accident. He enjoys chew toys. I’d like to rehome Kilo so that I can help raise my young godson. He’s a good boy who would benefit from having an experienced owner who could provide some TLC, in a home w/ no young children or other pets. Enclosed outdoor space would be a plus. You’ll get a harness, food, bowls, carrier + new crate.
