Story
Meet Hemingway Nickname: Hemmy Breed: Chihuahua Rescue: Albert’s Dog Lounge Age: Senior Weight: 8 lbs Fun fact: He likes to sit on your shoulder like a parrot. He’s looking to help you live out your pirate dreams, ahoy me matey! Foster home: Madison, WI Activity level: Moderate Friendly with: Dogs, preferably of similar size (not cat tested). Small children/fast movements scare him, so a home without children is best for Hemingway. Sleep style: Curled up in crate overnight, couch napped during the day Meals: 1/4 cup of kibble in AM and PM Snore-o-meter: 0/10 Bark-o-meter: 1/10 Shedding meter: 1/10 Best feature: His gorgeous coloring Signature color: Teal blue, makes his chocolate brown fur “pop” Walk out song: Paparazzi - Lady Gaga Favorite season: Summer, loves fun in the sun and the heat. Classic chi! Personality: Snuggly, curious, protective, Velcro pup Loves: To be near his people, snacks, exploring the yard, sunbathing Bucket list: Writing the next great American novel Neutered ✅ Microchipped ✅ Housebroken when kept on schedule ✅ Takes treats gently ✅ Crate trained ✅ UTD on vaccinations ✅ UTD on preventatives ✅ Hemingway is a sweet little guy with big dog energy. He does not like quick movements or being grabbed at (will nip) and tends to “guard” his person. Because of this, he would do best in a home without kids. When he feels safe, he’s a cuddle bug!

Meet Joseph! Nickname: The 11th Son (go brush up on your Broadway musicals if you don't know!) Breed: Chihuahua mix Rescue: Albert’s Dog Lounge Age: Senior Weight: 18 lbs Foster home: Stoughton, IL Activity level: Low Friendly with: Dogs, cats, and respectful children. Sleep style: Prefers larger dog beds, or a larger crate inside a dog bed Meals: 3 freeze dried small batch turkey patties morning and evening, plus a bedtime snack. Joseph LOVES snacks Bark-o-meter: 2/10 Shedding meter: 1/10 Best features: His singing voice. Just kidding, my expressive ears and my mighty tail waggle tie for first place! Favorite season: I do enjoy a leisurely early summer walk but am not a fan of pollen Signature color: Technicolor Fashion: Definitely a Dreamcoat. Or any hand woven, cozy clothes. Walk out song: Go, Go, Go Joseph (the chorus part) Fun fact: If Joseph had a job, he would be a dream interpreter. Or a food critic who would likely give everyone a five star review! Personality: playful, goofy, couch potato, sweet, shy, attention hog :) Neutered Microchipped Crate trained (large crates only please! Mostly housebroken, but will need a belly band when acclimating to a new house as he will mark for the first few days. Might not be a bad idea overnight also UTD on vaccinations UTD on preventatives Joseph is such a wonderful boy! He has had a rough go of things but is so resilient! He had a broken pelvis in April 2025 and a broken leg in August 2025, but has recovered and is doing so well. He does have some potential allergies that we are trying Benadryl to help with, and is cat friendly despite having a foster kitty sibling that likes to smack him around. He is a stage 2-3 clinger during his first few days of decompression in a new home then settles down. He is a happy boy who dances for his meals.
