Story
Meet Popcorn A Tiny Dog with a Big PersonalityPopcorn is a 10-pound Chihuahua with a big heart and a soft spot for cats. At first glance, you'll notice how adorable he is – but this little guy is more than just a cute face. Popcorn is looking for a patient, experienced home that understands the unique needs of a senior pup who’s had to figure life out on his own terms.Popcorn has cataracts and limited vision, so he startles easily – especially if he's woken up abruptly. For this reason, he’s not a fit for homes with children or a home that has many visitors and will need a calm, quiet environment where he can feel safe. Once he trusts you (and that might take some time – think weeks or even months), he’ll allow gentle pets and might even sneak in a snuggle on his terms.He’s very food-motivated, which helps with building trust, but he’s also protective of his meals and treats, so he must be fed separately from other pets. Popcorn loves cats and would absolutely thrive in a feline-friendly home. He’s cautious with dogs but can coexist peacefully after a respectful introduction.Popcorn isn’t a social butterfly, but he does fine when visitors come over – as long as they don’t try to engage with him directly. His ideal adopter will be someone who respects his boundaries, moves at his pace, and is okay with earning his love slowly but surely.If you’re a cat-loving human with a quiet home and a heart big enough for a little dog who just needs time and understanding, Popcorn might just be your perfect match.Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-serve basis. We strive to find the perfect home for each animal. Applications may take up to 48 hours to process. All CAWS animals are fixed, microchipped, and vaccinated. His adoption fee is $200.

Story
Meet Willie – A Gentle, Shy Soul Ready for a Fresh Start Willie is a 6-year-old, 25-pound Chihuahua mix who came to CAWS after losing his beloved person. This sweet boy’s world was turned upside down, but thanks to incredible volunteers, he made the long journey from New Mexico to Utah to begin his next chapter surrounded by love and safety.Understandably, Willie arrived scared and unsure. It took him nearly three weeks to feel secure enough to give his foster mom his first kisses—but now he offers the softest, sweetest kisses imaginable. His gentle nature shines once he trusts you.Willie is fully house-trained and crate-trained, with no accidents or marking. He gets along beautifully with all the dogs in his foster home—big or small, male or female—and moves through daily life quietly and kindly. He isn’t a barker and is easy to have around; sometimes you hardly notice he’s there, except for his soft presence at your feet.He recently had a dental (three teeth removed, several already missing) and had a tough recovery, but he’s now eating well and feeling much better. Willie is currently on metabolic food and is working toward losing about 10 pounds at a slow, healthy pace. Because his bloodwork suggested a possible thyroid issue, he’ll have follow-up testing in a few weeks to determine if medication is needed. His skin is a bit dry, so he receives soothing medicated baths, and his ears are being gently cleaned each day—something he patiently allows.Even with extra weight, Willie moves around surprisingly well, quietly padding up and down 16 stairs several times a day to keep his foster mom company while she works from home.Given his shy and sensitive nature, Willie needs a calm, predictable home without young or rowdy children. He would thrive with adopters who are retired, work from home, or can take him along during the day—he’s had enough loss and loneliness for one lifetime. While he does fine in a crate, we prefer he not spend much time in one going forward. He loves sleeping with his foster family (two- and four-legged alike) but will also settle into a dog bed if needed.Willie is truly a special little soul—quiet, tenderhearted, and overflowing with sweetness. He deserves a home filled with patience, security, and unconditional love for the rest of his many years ahead.If you feel you can offer Willie the safe, loving home he deserves, please fill out an application to meet him. This precious boy is ready to give his heart to someone who will cherish him.Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-serve basis; we thoughtfully choose the best fit for each animal. Applications may take up to 48 hours to process. All CAWS pets are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. Willie’s adoption fee is $200. Apply at caws.org/adoption-application.

Meet Snudge – The Sweet Soul with the Long Legs and Big HeartSnudge is a 2.5-year-old Chihuahua mix weighing about 15 pounds. This gentle boy is on the shy and timid side, especially around new people, but once he trusts you, he blossoms into a deeply affectionate companion. Snudge loves to curl up beside his person, drape himself across a lap, or quietly nap near you. His loyalty shines every time you walk back through the door—whether you’ve been gone five minutes or all day, he’ll greet you with joy.Snudge’s favorite activities include cozy naps, cuddle sessions, tasty snacks, and the occasional burst of zoomies that will make you smile every time. He’s moderately active and would be content in either a house with a yard or an apartment, as long as he gets regular chances to stretch his very long legs.Snudge is still learning about the world and needs a patient family willing to guide him gently as he builds confidence. He does well with other dogs and would benefit from having a canine companion to show him the ropes. He’s also good with cats, though he may pester them if the other dogs in the home are doing so.This boy is smart, food-motivated, and surprisingly athletic—he’s been known to climb onto tables or counters if he thinks there’s something yummy waiting. He’s mostly house-trained with plenty of outdoor breaks and is working on his leash manners.Snudge has made incredible progress since arriving in foster care—once too scared to leave his hiding spots, he now enjoys naps on a favorite kitchen pillow and bedtime snuggles on the bed. His foster family loves how quietly he sleeps at night and how his playful zoomies light up the room.Snudge is ready for a family that will offer him patience, reassurance, and love as he continues to grow into the confident dog he’s meant to be. In return, you’ll gain a devoted, affectionate companion who will remind you every day how lucky he feels to have found you.Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Story
Meet Woofgang Puck, or just Puck for short! This lovable 8-year-old Chihuahua mix is a little bundle of joy, possibly with a sprinkle of Beagle in his genes. At first, Puck may come off as shy, but give him a moment, and his playful side will shine like a star! Puck adores his toys and loves to get into some light-hearted trouble—just picture him as the life of the party! He enjoys his naps, but don’t let him miss out on the fun; after all, who wants to snooze through an adventure? He loves being outside, but keep an eye on him—if the yard isn’t secure, he might go on his own mini explorations. And be careful! If a door is left open, he’s ready to dash out! When it comes to other dogs, Puck needs a little help. He has a tendency to “assist” them with their meals, which can be quite annoying. His friendly greetings can be a bit much—he barks, jumps, and wags his tail enthusiastically, which may confuse his canine pals. With some training, he can learn to tone it down. He’s also learning how to handle his protective instincts, but if you have other pets, be prepared to guide him through it. Puck is quite the jumper when he’s excited and might unexpectedly leap onto you, giving playful nips at your legs! He listens when corrected but often forgets the rules once the fun starts again. While he’s crate trained, Puck feels much more comfortable snoozing on a cozy bed rather than being confined to a crate. Sleeping in your bed isn’t something he’s into just yet. The good news is, he’s house trained and will let you know when it’s time to go out. Puck does have a heart murmur and takes medication twice a day for it. He can get a bit anxious, especially when being picked up or during car rides, and sitting on laps isn’t really his scene. This sweet boy is looking for a forever home filled with love, patience, and understanding. With your support, Puck will be ready for short hikes and exciting adventures with his favorite human! Puck has been neutered, is current on vaccines, has tested negative for heartworm and is microchipped. He also had a recent dental and lost a few teeth. If you are interested in adopting Puck, please complete an adoption application on our website. Just go to uaaf.org/adopt.
