Lil' Paws, Big Hearts Chihuahua Rescue

Chihuahuas are a very unique breed. They are funny, loving, and incredibly affectionate. We believe that every chihuahua deserves a warm lap, cuddles, and love and it is our goal in finding families for each and every dog that comes into our rescue. It is also our goal to provide education to others on the breed, as chihuahuas often get stereotyped as yappy and aggressive. We hope to show our local communities that, with proper training, chihuahuas can be calm and well-behaved pets, suitable for any home.

We do our best to ensure our dogs and their families are happy. We don't believe the adoption process ends once you sign the contract. We are always here to help with any pet questions you may have and we host pet events for our adopters as a chance for their pets to socialize and provide a network of support.
