You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hello! My name is Heisenberg and I am a 9 month old, 13lb chihuahua mix. I will finish growing soon and should top out around 15lbs. I am a happy, outgoing boy. I like to take walks with my friends and stay with the group so nicely! I am playful and love other doggies. I am crate trained and house trained, so that’s pretty awesome. Foster mom says the only “negative” think about me is that I am a bit of a yapper. It’s to be expected – chihuahua’s bark, haha!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi there! My name is Merlin’s Moment, and I’m a 2-year-old male Chihuahua weighing just 12 pounds. I’m a gentle soul—very shy by nature—but I adore other dogs, whether they’re big or small. Having canine companions around helps me feel safe, so I’ll need a doggy buddy (or two!) in my forever home. I’m not the cuddly, attention-seeking type, but I do enjoy being near my people and especially my four-legged friends. I love chewing on bones, and I walk beautifully on a leash—seriously, I’m a dream to walk! I’m fully potty trained as long as I get regular breaks outside, and I’m great in my crate. It’s my cozy little safe space. Humans still make me nervous, so I’ll need a patient, understanding home where I can build trust at my own pace. Because of my shy nature, a calm, quiet environment is best—no young kids, please. I’d be okay with respectful children aged 15 and up. If you’re looking for a low-maintenance, independent companion who just needs a little time and space to open up, I might be the perfect fit.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi! My name is Temor. I am a 3-year-old chihuahua looking for a forever home. I am a little bit timid, but when I warm up to people I’m a real gentleman! I love my people. I want to be with them all the time. I love sleeping and snuggling with them under cozy covers. I am great with other dogs, at least dogs my size. I haven’t been around any big ones. But I think if they’re gentle with me, we could be friends for sure. I will likely need a dog with me in my future home to help me feel comfortable, especially when my people have to leave for work. I get along with cats too! Sometimes I try playing with them but I’ve never managed to get them to play back. I love toys, chewing on bones, and sleeping. When I trust that everything is okay and I won’t get hurt, I’m basically a mellow guy who likes to chill 24/7. Like I said earlier, I can be a little shy. I’ve never ever ever been aggressive. I haven’t been around children much. I think if they can understand that I’m shy, I should be okay with them. I do go outside to potty, but my foster mom still puts a belly band on me. I like to make sure a place belongs to me, if you know what I mean. But she says I’m improving! Oh yeah, I’m a small guy, less than 10 pounds! I think that’s about it. I’m a great guy who is looking for a loving and patient home! Please come and meet me!

He melts for gentle head rubs and absolutely lives for being told he’s a good boy.   They’re doing really well with potty training but aren’t 100% trustworthy just yet. Both are kennel trained. Leash walking is a work in progress.    With patience, kindness, and a little encouragement, these boys will make the sweetest, snuggliest additions to a loving home.   These boys have never had a place to call their own...Could your home be their happy ending?  Apply to meet me at https://bit.ly/RRAdoptionApplication  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 23, 2025, 5:55 pm

Some of my favorite things include going for walks, laying in the sun and taking naps. I’m crate trained and house trained as long as I get consistent potty breaks. It does take me some time to be comfortable with new people but, once I’m comfortable I do really well. Because of my age I would be better with older dog say kids. I’m good with other dogs although, I prefer a home without cats.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hello, my name is Azucar Dolce. I am a Xoloitzcuintli – a rare find in rescue! I weigh in at 21lbs and I am 2 years and 8 months old. I came to Rescue Rovers with my puppies, who have all been adopted. Now it’s my turn! I am a very shy girl. I’ve been in my foster home for 2 months and at this point I am very comfortable here. I know the routine, I love the other dogs, I’m comfortable with the humans. But I am still wary of too much contact. I am looking for a patient, loving home who will give me the time I need to settle in – but who will also help me through that process with a little gentle pressure to interact. Foster mom says I am a “flight risk”. I don’t know anything about flying, but I will tell you that there are things that make me want to run away. Namely…anything that scares me. I didn’t have a lot of human contact before my life here, so I’m still getting used to people. You all are kind of loud and grabby, you know? I mean…you’re nice, so that’s good. But I’m just used to doing my own thing. Anyway, a home with a securely fenced yard is a must for me. (ETA - little ones scare me. A lot. I am looking for a home with children no younger than 12.) I am making good progress, tho! Recently I have begun to allow more of what you call “snuggles”. For me, that means about 2 minutes in your lap before I need to shake that love off. We’re building on that connection. I have also recently begun playing with the other dogs! Being with my pack is my favorite, and I am definitely looking for a home with another dog. I love my crate – it’s so cozy and safe feeling! I’m doing well with potty training, too! Altho, if you’re a nervous girl, you know that sometimes scary things make us dribble just a little.I also love to play with toys and I’m very cute with them.
