My story

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

Petey is an approximately eight to nine year old male Chihuahua mix. He is neutered, current on vaccinations and microchipped. Petey gets along with the other dogs at our shelter. He loves to spend time outdoors (weather permitting) playing with his shelter buddies. Petey is quite shy with people but as he gets used to you, he will "flirt" a bit with you by dancing around you and shyly coming up to take a treat from your hand. Treats are Petey's favorite and definitely help him warm up to new people. Petey may never be a lap dog, but that's ok! He is still a happy little guy who can bring a lot of joy to a family who will love and accept him just the way he is.

If you would like to help a small dog in need, please consider meeting Petey! You can call 602-526-0842 and/or email chitownrescue@gmail.com for a meet and greet appointment.

More about this rescue

"Chi Town" is short for "Chihuahua Town," which is our nick-name because we found that the majority of animals we were rescuing happened to be Chihuahuas and literally have a little “town” comprised of Chihuahuas! Chihuahuas are one of the most over-bred dogs in Arizona and unfortunately many end up in need of rescue. However, we are not limited to saving just Chihuahas, we do save other breeds dependent on availability of space. Chi Town also specializes in rescuing dogs who require a little extra TLC and are at risk of euthanasia at county shelters. These dogs may not be doing well for a variety of reasons- fear, fear aggression, anxiety, or a medical issue to name a few. These are the dogs that typically have no other outlet and for which time is of the essence . After our dogs are medically cleared and/or their behavioral issues have improved, they are available for adoption.

Please be aware that we do our very best to answer all questions in a timely manner.

We are always seeking to help promote these special Chihuahuas who are too often overlooked in AZ shelters due to the sheer volume of this breed. Please share and like us on Facebook:
