Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Chico! He’s a charming little guy who’s settling in wonderfully! He’s an affectionate snuggle bug who loves curling up on the sofa for cozy naps with his favorite person.  When he’s not lounging, you’ll find him perched by the window, keeping a close eye on squirrels, birds, and the occasional bunny he seems determined to chase after.   Chico tends to be protective of his person and will bark and get excitable around strangers, so slow intros are needed when meeting new people.  In fact, if you'd like to meet this dapper fella, we feel a meet-and-greet at your home would be great so Chico is less territorial. Chico is crate-savvy and happily tucks himself into his heated crate when he’s ready to relax. Although he may protest at first, he settles nicely in his crate, whether during the day or for a full night’s sleep.  He’s also doing well with his potty habits on a schedule.  Since the weather has warmed up and he’s getting outside more often, he’s had no accidents in our home. He’s house-trained and has only marked once.  Chico keeps his crate clean and dry overnight. Belly bands may be needed at meet and greets.  We introduced Chico to our friends’ mini dachshunds this weekend with a slow and careful approach. While he wasn’t comfortable with them and needed to be separated, this helped us learn more about the type of home that would be the best fit for him. Chico may thrive as an only dog or in a home with a well-trained larger dog. This playful pup loves his toys and enjoys a good run. Check out this cute video of him with a stuffie toy!  And here’s another cute video of Chico … he loves his toys!  He’s recently neutered and still adjusting, which may explain his frequent attempts to mount our male dachshund mix (who is more than twice his size).   Chico is very smart and is making progress in obedience training and has a lot to say! Because he’s quite vocal, he may be best suited for a home without shared walls. …. He just wants to please his human.  With a little guidance, he’ll be the perfect companion for someone who loves snuggles, playtime, and watching the world go by together.   Chico is from a local reservation. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.

If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate   to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.   Click here to watch a video of Chico.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 10, 2025, 4:51 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hassan is an adorable little dog who loves being close to you and showering you with affection. He’s almost there with potty training—just a little more work and he’ll be all set. He loves walks, and will hold it as long as possible just so the walk will continue.  Hassan loves to run … here’s a video .  He will run like the wind with the 16 year old in the foster home, with such an exuberant smile on his face.  When he slows down for a nap, Hassan loves to sleep on his back all sprawled out.  With his perfect size and happy-go-lucky personality, he’s the ideal companion for anyone looking for a loving, playful pup. Hassan thrives on human contact and wants to be wherever you are. His biggest adjustment is being in a home without his sibling, but he’s making progress every day. He has all the endearing puppy traits, and his playful puppy-like energy will bring a smile to your face. Hassan can be a bit vocal when he’s in his kennel or when he’s craving attention, but that’s just his way of saying, "I want to be with you!" Because of this, no shared walls in his forever home.  Hassan is a sweet boy who is a bit nervous around jumping loud children, but is working on trusting the 7 year old in the foster home. He is very food motivated and loves walks. Hassan loves to ride in the car and knows how to roll the windows down with the buttons, so they need to be locked for his safety when loose in the car. Hassan needs slow intros with dogs, but then enjoys their company and play time. Check out this video and   video 2 of Hassan taking treats nicely. Hassan would love a family that would take him on adventures where he can run and walk as he has zero idea he is a tiny dog and firmly believes he can take on the world with his charm and enthusiasm. Hassan is a wiggle worm and is always wiggling with love and energy looking forward to what is next on the agenda. He’s best suited for someone who understands the unique needs of a young Chihuahua.   Hassan is from Texas.
