My story

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

What a GREAT pet Budders is. He is happy and active and friendly, in spite of a physical condition. He lost his R rear leg after we tried to save it, and our efforts weren't successful. We have had him with us for several months. We've learned his personality characteristics. What we know for sure is that this guy loves his person, he is not a fan of sharing his space with other dogs and doesn't love big dogs. He loves to share a bed with his person. He is pretty well house trained and having 3 legs doesn't slow him down much. He will let you know when he doesn't like something or wants to be left alone, but he's not a mean dog, not ever. We LOVE this guy. He's had great vet care with us, prior to being with us he was vaccinated annually but there's no evidence he got annual vet exams, though we don't know that for sure. He is in super good shape at this point and his adopter will need to keep up on his exams and dental care as well as heartworm and flea prevention. Budders must stay on a high-quality diet, and he can't gain weight as that would be too hard on his three legs, (it's not good for any dog).
If you think Budders would be a good fit for your home, please apply and let's get a meeting time set up! He is a special boy that will definitely light up your life! Budders is about 3 years old, He weighs around 14# and his adoption fee is $400.

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.

Go meet their pets

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.
