Meet Orion!
Breed: Chihuahua Mix (Short Coat)
Age: 3 Years Old
Gender: Male (Neutered)
Weight: 7.16 lbs (Working on gaining a little healthy weight!)
Vibe: Gentle, soulful lap-snuggler with magnificent batty ears & hidden lightning speed!
Orion’s Story & Personality
With those magnificent, oversized batty ears and his sweet, naturally frosted face, Orion is an absolute head-turner who steals hearts the second you meet him!
Orion came into rescue care alongside two of his housemates after their beloved owner sadly passed away. Having his whole world turn upside down was a lot for this sensitive 7-pound boy, and at first, his big, soulful eyes carry a quiet, worried expression while he assesses new surroundings.
But don't let his timid initial shell fool you—once Orion knows he is safe and decompresses, watch out! Beneath that sensitive exterior is a hilarious, fun-loving pup with lightning-fast zoomies that move so fast we can hardly catch him on camera!
When he’s not showing off his sudden bursts of speed, Orion is a dedicated lap dog who wants nothing more than to curl up against you, soak in gentle pets, and feel secure. He is currently working on building up a little healthy weight and gaining confidence on a leash, but every single day his sweet, brave personality shines brighter.
Ideal Home & Companion Fit
Home Environment: A calm, quiet household committed to letting him settle in at his own pace.
Family Match: Perfect for an understanding individual or family who appreciates sensitive, soulful dogs and will celebrate every brave milestone as his confidence unfolds. In his current foster home, he blossomed out of his Chihuahua shakes after about 2 days.
Care & Routine: Needs a supportive adopter dedicated to a steady, nutritious diet for healthy weight gain, gentle reassurance on outdoor walks, and plenty of warm lap space for daily snuggles.
OUR LOCATION & TRANSPORT POLICY:
Fur Ever Yours Animal Rescue is based in Okanogan County (Eastern Washington), where our dedicated first-line foster homes are located and where veterinary care is most accessible. Because we cross-list our dogs in multiple regions to help them find the perfect match, you may see this dog listed in several cities.
For Small Dogs (Under 20 lbs): Once an adoption application is fully approved, we provide volunteer-based transport to designated meeting spots in Ellensburg, Leavenworth, Wenatchee, Moses Lake, or Brewster for Western/Central WA families.
For Eastern WA, Montana, or Idaho Families: We host pre-arranged adoption meet-and-greets in Reardan or Spokane Valley.
Please Note: We do not transport dogs sight-unseen without an approved application and processed adoption fee.
ADOPTION FEES & MISSION:
Our adoption fees do not purchase an individual pet; rather, they act as a direct donation that funds our entire rescue ecosystem. Because we pull medical cases, seniors, and neglected animals from under-resourced rural areas, your adoption fee is pooled directly into our medical fund. This directly supports the rehabilitation, dental surgeries, and specialized care of every single dog currently resting under our roof.
