Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Ima a Yoshi (Yoshi)! Ima a Yoshi—or just Yoshi to his friends—is a brave, resilient little guy with a heart of gold. At 2.5 years old and a sturdy 12–13 pounds, this full-grown Chihuahua is the perfect size for any adventure! His Story Yoshi returned from a harrowing three-week "solo adventure" after being lost. While we are so grateful he’s back safe, his time fending for himself has changed his outlook on feline friends. We suspect he may have had a few tough run-ins with aggressive cats while he was away. As a result, Yoshi has officially retired from the "cat-friend" business and will chase. Why Yoshi is the Best Companion: Expert Traveler: Yoshi is a dream in the car and absolutely loves going for rides. Whether it’s a trip to the store or a weekend getaway, he’s ready to be your co-pilot! Walk Enthusiast: He loves to get out and explore the world on his leash. House Trained: He’s a true gentleman indoors and knows the ropes of a home. Devoted & Loyal: After being lost for so long, he truly appreciates the comfort of a warm lap and the love of his humans. The Perfect Match Yoshi is looking for a strictly feline-free home. He wants to be your one-and-only star and doesn't want to worry about any cats in his personal space. In return, he promises to be the most loyal, loving, and spunky companion you’ve ever met. Ready to bring Yoshi home? Yoshi is available through Rescue Rover Dog Adoption.

All kinds of toys! Plushies do not get destroyed…just well loved! My favorite thing to do is snuggle with humans. I will drop a toy or bone to come snuggle or curl up on a lap. I am a lover boy! I have mastered potty training with a doggy door when I am loose in the house. I am working on not needing a belly band through the night in my crate. I will need some continuing assistance with this so that I can be the best pooch I can be! I am crate trained, as long as I have my toys for any extra energy I may have. I have been working on leash training and am at the top of my class! I get along with other dogs, big or small. I am not sure about cats. I have not really met one yet.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi! I’m Bullet Rogan and I want to be your new best friend! I am a 5 year old, 13lb chihuahua mix. Of course we can’t know for sure what my exact breed is, but we’re pretty sure that pug is a pretty big part of the equation! Just look at my cute underbite! I love all the things, but mostly I love to follow you from room to room. And next best I love to play catch me if you can! So I’ll follow, follow, follow…and then when you try to pick me up, it’s a fun game! I’m a happy boy. I think most everything is fun! I love my dog friends and my toys, too! You’ll know I’m a happy guy because I will wag my bum. Yes, I have a tail and I suppose that’s what’s really wagging, but my whole bum likes to get in on the action. Foster mom says I’m 100% wiggle butt! I am good in my crate, good in the car and good on leash. I’m pretty darn close to housetrained, too! I haven’t had any accidents in my foster home, but some of that may be because foster mom is pretty good at making sure dogs don’t potty inside. With a good schedule and some reminders, I should be no trouble to potty train! Last thing we should mention about me. When I came to the shelter I had several gashes that needed to be doctored up. I’m all healed now! But at the sheltr I did get a little nippy. Probably because I was scared and hurting. Since I came to my foster home I’ve been very sweet and gentle with no problems!

I do have a heart murmur that requires medication but, it hasn’t stopped me from enjoying some of my favorite things, including going for walks and car rides. I also love a good nap! I’m crate trained and house trained. Because of my size and age, I would be better with older kids. I’m good with other dogs although, I prefer a home without cats.
