Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Daphne! She is a 2 year old Chihuahua/Terrier mix. Daphne is spayed, current on shots and microchipped. She is very petite and has a history of doing well with small dogs but she is not a candidate for a home with young children. Again, no human kids, please. Daphne is working through house training though not quite 100% yet. She loves walks and would make a great running companion.
Daphne needs a quiet environment with someone who works from home or possibly on a hybrid schedule/leaving home for only brief periods. She’s a clingy dog who would love to be with you 24/7. If grandchildren visit the home, they make her very uncomfortable. Sometimes, these dogs go through things before coming to rescue. All we can do is work around past traumas.

More about this rescue
Renee's Rescues is an all-volunteer rescue organization based in Delaware. Our focus is to rescue misplaced, abandoned, mistreated, abused and/or ill canines and place them into loving homes.
We do a significant amount of rescue work with dogs acquired from large-scale breeding operations. Most, if not all, spent life in cages or outdoor hutches prior to rescue. Our dedicated foster families assist with house-training and crate-training before they are adopted. Additionally, our fosters provide extra TLC and socialization. This enables them to flourish as they start their new chapter of life.
On the fence about adopting? That's okay! We are always looking for new foster families. We provide all veterinary care and supplies. You provide the love. To learn more, please visit www.reneesrescues.org, and fill out a foster application under the Forms tab. You can email your application to applications@reneesrescues.org.
