Story
Animal Rescue of the Rockies believes every pet should find a wonderful and caring home. To ensure Miss Ma'am finds the best possible home, we ask you fill out our adoption application so we can learn more about you and your household. We review each application in the order submitted and will contact you within 48 hours (please check your spam folder for our emails) . Miss Ma’am | 4-year-old Chihuahua Mix | Queen of cuddles Miss Ma’am is a sweet, affectionate Chihuahua mix with a heart as big as her love for snuggles. At 30 pounds, she’s a low-energy companion who enjoys short walks, lounging on her favorite chair, and showering her humans with endless kisses (sometimes with a playful nip as she expresses her love). She is almost fully house-trained and thrives with gentle guidance and structure. Miss Ma’am shares a remarkable story with her daughters, Lady and Missy—they were rescued together from the woods of rural North Carolina after being abandoned. She adores people of all ages and genders, though she would do best in a home with children 10 and older due to her exuberant affection. Miss Ma’am has a confident personality with other dogs—she just needs a moment to say hello and set boundaries. Once introductions are made, she’s happy to be friends and enjoys the company of her furry companions. She ignores cats entirely. Her favorite spot in the house is her cherished chair, and she’s happiest when allowed to claim it as her throne—after all, a girl who survived who knows how long in the woods deserves the comfort and luxury of her own cozy spot. Miss Ma’am thrives on love, attention, and tasty treats, and she isn’t shy about showing her devotion. While she isn’t yet familiar with commands, Miss Ma’am is eager to learn and responds beautifully to positive reinforcement. She’s happiest in a home that allows her to snuggle freely on furniture, where her affection is welcomed, and where she can enjoy the comfort she so richly deserves. Miss Ma’am is loyal, loving, and ready to devote herself to a family that will return her affection in kind. If you’re looking for a devoted companion who will fill your home with love, Miss Ma’am is ready to be your queen of cuddles. If you and the dog are a good match then we'll connect you with our dog's foster parents to chat more in-depth. If both you and the foster agree that the dog is a good fit then a meet and greet is scheduled. We require applicants' dogs to meet ours to ensure they get along. We'll ask you to read and sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee to complete the adoption when it comes time. Our adoption fees help cover the costs of saving more lives! A home visit will be scheduled within one week of your new pet going home with you. The adoption fee for this pet is $375. Our adoption fee covers the following: Spay/neuter Microchip DAPP vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog. Rabies vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog. Adopters shall be responsible for all vaccinations after adoption. Please fill out an adoption application by clicking here . Please give us 48 hours to review your application and respond to you.
