My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Champ came to rescue with his mom Sassy, dad Jake and brothers Chico and Tango from a loving home after the passing of their owner. Champ was very content with his brother Tango, and it was the intention to have the boys be adopted together. Unfortunately, Tango fell ill, and he was not able to recover. Champ has bounced back from the loss, but it would be great to find him a stable loving forever home. Champ is on the shy side but tends to warm up quickly. His personality and temperament are his best features! HE doesn't show up great at meet and greets as he isn't immediately a warm and fuzzy pet. But with time and patience he is loving. He is low maintenance, has a medium energy level, travels well, no behavioral issues or concerns, and is very obedient. Champ is a mellow companion who will be great company.
Champ is neutered, UTD on vaccines, microchipped, heartworm tested negative, has seen vet and is healthy. Champs adoption fee is $300 ***He qualifies for the Seniors for Seniors program. ***

Additional adoption info

**If you are unable to pay the adoption fee ($250 and up), we are unable to place a dog in your care. Being unable to meet the financial obligations of pet care (recurrent or emergent) is one of many reasons why so many of these pets end up in rescue. It's not lack of love.**
We require an adoption application, and then we will check references. We also check with vets. If the person is not LOCAL then we will partner with a local animal control to complete a home visit.
There are adoption fees associated with the costs of veterinary care of the pet. We require an adoption contract to be signed to finalize the adoption process and we have an agreement that all our pets are to be Chihuahua Rescue Indiana Inc. pets for LIFE. In other words, in the event that they can not stay in their adoptive home, they are not to be surrendered to another individual or rescue.

We hold adoption events at local Petsmarts, Specks, various other local venues mentioned on our website and social media. The dates are fluid and they do coincide with the nationally advertised adoption events at the locales.

More about this rescue

Chihuahua Rescue Indiana Inc. is a non profit, all volunteer rescue working with Chihuahuas and Chihuahua mixes. The pets are housed in individual volunteer foster homes, not kennels or shelters until they are adopted permanently. We get to know our animals and therefore can tell the potential adopter what the traits of the animal are and what home would be the best for the pet. We are dedicated to the adoption, education, rescue and transportation of the Chihuahua breed. We believe that every Chihuahua deserves a loving home.
