Story
Cujo is a petite Chihuahua who came to us from Ozarks Pet Rescue after his owner realized they had too many dogs and worked responsibly to find them loving new homes. Thanks to that care, Cujo is now on his way to a brighter, calmer future. Cujo can be a little nervous at first—new situations take him a moment to process—but once he feels safe, he warms up quickly and shows his true colors. He’s a sweet, quiet boy who enjoys being held and staying close to his people. He’s also on the lower-energy side, making him a great fit for a relaxed household or someone looking for a gentle companion. He does well with other dogs and cats, and would likely appreciate a home that understands small-dog sensitivities and values patience and kindness. If you’re looking for a soft, snuggly little sidekick who just wants to feel secure and loved, Cujo may be the perfect addition to your home. 💛 All of our dogs are dewormed, spayed/neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and heartworm tested if they are old enough.

Story
Baby Bear is a male Chihuahua who came to us from the same situation as Cujo, after his owner had more dogs than they could manage and worked to ensure everyone found a safe place to land. Big changes can be a lot for a little dog, and Baby Bear is understandably feeling a bit overwhelmed right now. Even so, his sweet nature shines through. Baby Bear is a snuggly, affectionate boy who finds comfort in being close to his people once he feels safe. He’s gentle, loving, and clearly wants to connect—he just needs a little patience and reassurance as he adjusts to new surroundings. He's good with other dogs and cats, and very well behaved in his crate. With time, consistency, and a calm home, Baby Bear will blossom into a wonderful companion. If you’re looking for a small dog with a big heart and are willing to move at his pace, Baby Bear would love nothing more than a cozy place to call home. 🐾💛 All of our dogs are dewormed, spayed/neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and heartworm tested if they are old enough.

Story
Meet Chalula 🌶️ — a devoted mama ready for her own fresh start. Chalula is a female Chihuahua mix who came to us from MADACC after arriving there with a male Chihuahua mix and her puppies. Her puppies were adopted while at MADACC, and now Chalula’s turn has finally come to find a loving home of her very own. Chalula is a sweet girl who truly enjoys people and appreciates gentle attention and companionship. She does well with other dogs and has been great with kids. While she hasn’t been cat tested yet, we believe she would likely do well with slow, thoughtful introductions. After giving so much as a mama, Chalula is ready to be someone’s cherished companion—enjoying comfort, love, and all the attention she deserves. 💕 All of our dogs are dewormed, spayed/neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and heartworm tested if they are old enough.

Story
Cilantro is a happy girl that is both blind and deaf, and not yet housebroken. She is fostered in Illinios. Meet Cilantro! Cilantro is an easygoing little girl; a gentle soul looking for love. Cilantro is a senior, both blind and deaf. Sadly, she was found wandering around on her own, but those days are over! She loves to sleep the day and night away. And who doesn't love a good cuddle?! Cilantro loves a good cuddle and kisses but will let you know when she isn't in the mood to be picked up by moving her legs a lot. She loves to burrow herself under a soft, fuzzy blanket. I call this her version of hide and seek. She tends to grunt and bark at times out of frustration and to let you know when she is hungry for food/snack or thirsty. And she makes the cutest sounds! This little one is special due to little grunts (sounds like a human) and how she has to work up her bark. Cilantro is ready for her forever home! BDRA has voted against the use of electrical fencing effective immediately.
