This adorable little chiweenie pup is one of three babies born to a 10 pound chiweenie rescued from along the border. Mom was found with her 3 puppies who were just hours old.

They are all microchipped, vaccinated, and dewormed. The adoption fee includes and appointment for their spay/neuter once they are 4 months old. This cost is covered by our rescue.

Story
Meet Raul, an independent and spirited pup ready to find his forever home! Raul is currently living in a foster home and is looking for a family that understands his unique needs and can provide him with the love and attention he deserves. Raul does well with other dogs while out on walks, but his ideal home would not have resident dogs. He has a strong chase instinct with cats, so a cat-free household would be best for him. In his current foster home, Raul shares his space with two female cats, but they do not interact closely due to his tendency to lunge and bark. When it comes to being alone, Raul is quite content in a gated area or free-roaming for short periods. He's house-trained and hasn't shown any issues in that regard. While Raul is a loving companion, he can be a bit particular about being handled or picked up. Sometimes he enjoys being pet, but other times he may growl and snap. It's important to approach him with patience and respect for his boundaries. Raul has made progress in his behavior and no longer exhibits food guarding with humans. However, he still displays this behavior with the resident cats, so it's essential to feed him separately. If you're looking for an independent and spirited companion who thrives in a cat-free environment, Raul could be the perfect match for you. With the right understanding and care, Raul is sure to blossom into a loyal and loving member of your family. Don't miss out on the chance to give Raul the forever home he's been waiting for!

Cairo

Chihuahua Cardigan Welsh Corgi

Male, 5 yrs
Austin, TX
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Cairo is a fluffy, adorable 5-year-old Corgi/Chihuahua mix with short legs, a soft coat, and the kind of face that makes you want to scoop him right up. This little guy has been incredibly brave while dealing with severe heartworm disease that has led to right-sided heart failure—but despite his diagnosis, Cairo is currently stable, comfortable, and doing well on his medications. Cairo does still have some residual fluid in his abdomen, but his medical team is pleased with how he’s responding to treatment. What he needs most right now is a calm, quiet foster home where he can rest, relax, and continue his medications until he’s ready to begin his heartworm injections next month. Because of his condition, Cairo is not looking for an active lifestyle. Instead, he’d be perfect for someone who enjoys peaceful companionship—short potty breaks, cozy naps, gentle affection, and lots of love. His fluffy appearance and sweet demeanor make him an easy houseguest, and he’s happiest when he feels safe and settled. Cairo’s medical care will be guided and supported by our clinic, and he just needs a foster who can offer patience, consistency, and a low-stress environment while he continues his healing journey.

Story
Hi, I’m Sarafina I’m a gentle little soul looking for a patient and loving family to call my own. I can be a little shy at first — new people and new places can feel a little overwhelming — but with a little time, kindness, and encouragement, I bloom into the sweetest, most loyal companion. I’m learning every day that the world isn’t such a scary place, and it helps so much to have someone by my side cheering me on. If you have a soft spot for shy, tender-hearted pups like me, I would love to meet you. I may be a little slow to trust, but once I do, I’ll love you with my whole heart.

Story
Happy-go-lucky Luke! Sweet little Luke and his brother Duke came from an “accidental” litter. Their mom is a chihuahua, and there dad is, well, anyone’s guess :) Luke’s tail has not stopped wagging since he got to his foster home. He is curious, sweet, and playful. His short little legs give him a wiggly, lowrider strut that’s pure joy to watch. He enjoys playing with other dogs but has not been around cats. He’s done well with people of all ages that he’s met so far, but we are recommending children over 10 since small children can overwhelm small puppies (and vice versa). Short video clip of Luke and Duke in their foster home can be seen here: https://youtube.com/shorts/trDeIGYTKAk?feature=shared (Link may require copy/paste into web browser) Luke’s adoption fee of $450 includes vet exam, age appropriate vaccinations, fecal test, wormer, heart worm/tick test & preventative, neuter, and microchip. If you live in the Austin, TX area and are interested in adopting, please fill out our rescue’s application: http://forgottenfriendstx.org/adoption-application/ Note: these puppies are brand new to our rescue, so if their name isn’t in the list of available dogs on our application yet, please write it in :) Adoption decisions are based on the best overall match rather than a first-come-first-serve basis. Thank you for your interest!

These pups are in Austin, Texas too!

Meet Einstein! This one-year-old Chiweenie truly lives up to his name — he’s clever, curious, and full of heart. Taken in as a stray by TRAPRS Rescue, this pint-sized guy brings joy wherever he goes. He’s friendly and playful, and he loves to romp with other dogs. Kids love his cheerful personality, and he’s always up for a chase in the yard or a good squirrel watch from the window. Einstein sleeps happily in his crate at night and relaxes quietly when left alone in the house during the day. He’s come through his heartworm treatment and his neutering like a champ and is now ready for his forever home. While he’s not a fan of bath time, he’s otherwise easy to handle and eager to please. His adorable overbite and occasional little skip when he walks make him even more endearing. If you’re looking for a loyal, happy pup who’ll make you smile every day, Einstein might be your perfect match. **Available for adoption in the greater Austin, Texas, area only**

Story
This cutie pie is Pumpkin and he is about 4 months old! He is full of personality and definitely the ringleader of this crew. He is outgoing, brave, and silly just to name a few traits! Pumpkin was the first puppy to learn how to climb pet stairs in order to get in the couch. After playtime which includes zoomies chasing his siblings Pumpkin is ready to cuddle and snooze! Pumpkin's foster has been working on safely socializing them since they aren't yet fully vaccinated. So the pups love going our for car ride, shopping in their pet stroller, or being carried in their stylish travel bag! Doing this has helped expose them safely to new people and new environments! They have one round of vaccines left and pretty soon he can go for walks outside like a big boy!
