Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Dan – A Gentle Soul with a Heart of Gold. Dan is an exceptionally gentle Chinese Crested Powder Puff, born on 07/24/2020 and weighing just 6.5 pounds. He has the softest, most luxurious fur and the sweetest disposition you can imagine. Sadly, Dan and his family were left behind when their owners moved away. A kind family member brought them to the rescue, giving Dan a second chance at happiness. Because of his past, he may be shy at first, but with a little patience (and a few tasty treats!), he’ll soon reveal his loving and loyal nature. Dan thrives in a calm environment and would do best with a quiet family who can give him the time he needs to build trust. He absolutely adores other dogs and would love a confident canine companion to help show him the ropes and make him feel secure. If you’re looking for a tender-hearted pup who just needs someone to believe in him, Dan is your guy. Give him a safe place to land, and he’ll give you a lifetime of love and gratitude in return. You can apply for Dan at www.adoggie4you.org.  HIs adoption fee is $400.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 17, 2025, 3:28 pm

Story
Meet Meechi! 🐾 Meechi is a 5-year-old Chihuahua with a heart far bigger than his size. He came to us after being hit by a car, suffering a severe injury that required his leg to be amputated. Despite everything he’s been through, Meechi remains one of the kindest, most gentle souls you’ll ever meet. His scars tell the story of his incredible fight and resilience. This sweet boy has adjusted beautifully to life on three legs and is truly thriving. Meechi loves to burrow into your lap, soaking up comfort and affection, and is happiest curled up in a big, soft bed where he can relax and feel safe. He’s currently flourishing in a loving foster home while patiently waiting for his forever family. Meechi is living proof that resilience and love can shine through even the hardest beginnings and he’s ready to share that love with a home of his own 💕

Hello and Welcome to Everything Tallulah! My name is Tallulah, or Big T, and I can't wait to meet YOU!! I am a young adult Chihuahua and I am looking for my forever Chihuahua family. I weigh in at about 8 lbs., so I won't take up too much room! I love, love, LOVE my people. I thrive in my home. My old owners didn't expose me to a lot, so now that I'm fully vetted I am learning all kinds of new things. I have been fostered with bigger dogs and I have done well. I love to play and run outside. If Chihuahuas are your thing - I'm your gal!! Don't delay - I won't be around for long!!

If you are approved to be my new family, a hold fee of $100 is required and will be applied to the full adoption fee of $400 when MVPC comes to visit your house with me! ***WE DO NOT HOLD DOGS.

Story
Meet Alice! Alice is a female chihuahua mix weighing in at 7 pounds. She is on the search for her fur-ever home! Alice was born in September 2019 which makes her just over 6 years old now. Poor Alice was not treated well prior to coming into rescue. It is believed she was used as a breeder dog at a backyard breeder. She has come a long way since being with her foster family. Alice needs to be treated like the queen she is- she deserves the finest things in life! She is a fun-loving little gal, but has to live life on her terms. A few things to know about Alice: she really is not fond of other dogs, unless they are little and leave her alone, but even then, she can be cranky with them. That being said, it has been determined that Alice should be the only dog in her new home. She will need an adult only home, no kids at all. Alice also needs time to get to know new people- all of her vets talked to her first, walked around the room so Alice could go to know them, then they would pick her up and she was okay with that. Alice doesn’t like people sticking their face in her face. She should be in a home without children but is good with adults who know how to handle her and be respectful. Alice is a good eater and not fussy when it comes to food. She likes car rides- her foster family has a seat that they buckle her into but it sits on the console in the middle of both adults and Alice really seems to love that! Due to her arthritis, she should go to a home without steps; she can’t go up stairs on her own. Her foster family has a ramp but most of the time they carry her outside to go potty and carry her back inside. She should be carried or have a stroller, as she should not walk that much, except for going potty and around the yard. As she gets older, she will need more care as she will develop severe arthritis, so maybe pain meds, anti inflammatories, maybe a cart; for now, she can get around and at the times she cannot, her foster parents carry her and/or use a stroller. Will you be the one to give a gal who hasn’t had a good start to life the best possible life from this point on? Alice’s adoption donation is $300. She is available for adoption in the midwest region, which is comprised of: OH, KY, IL, MI, WI. If you are interested in the above dog, please do not email us and tell us that you are interested, but submit an adoption application. The link for the application is below. To submit an application go here: http://www.chihuahua-rescue.com/adoption-application/ An application must be submitted and approved before a meet-n-greet can be scheduled. Your current dogs/cats must be spayed or neutered unless a veterinarian has determined that your current pet(s) should not be fixed due to medical reasons. They must also be up-to-date on shots and on HW preventative. Reference checks and a home visit are required so MW dogs can only be adopted in OH/KY/IL/MI/WI.
