My story

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

Tia is a tiny 4-year-old female Chihuahua/ Bichon Frise mix. Initially purchased from a shopping mall pet shop, then given away to someone else, she was surrendered to NCCR on 10/14/24 when her owner could no longer provide adequate care for her. Tia seems to be easily intimidated by people, although whether that is due to previous mistreatment or just her natural personality is unknown. We’re told she gets along well with other dogs and is also ok with children. Her foster mom reports that Tia seems to be housetrained, and will go to the door and ask to be let out. She also knows “sit”, but will not come when called. If you’re looking for a sweet little lap dog and you have the love and patience to help her adjust and overcome her people fears, Tia is waiting to meet you! She will be brought up to date with her vet care and spayed prior to adoption.

If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first step should be to complete an Adoption Application found at www.caninerescue.org. *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application. It takes a lot of time to process the applications, so we ask for your patience while we do so. If you see that the dog you were interested in has been adopted it means there were many applications for that dog and we did not get as far as processing your application before a home was found. We welcome you to apply again if you see another dog that interests you. If you have a question, please email your question to adoptions@caninerescue.org. It is much easier and quicker for us to respond by email as we receive many phone calls each day.

We do adopt out of state, however we do not transport or ship dogs. Potential adopter must be able and willing to travel to the Rescue to meet the dog they are interested in.

*PLEASE double check all of the phone numbers that you provide as if they are incorrect, we will be unable to process your application. Please also let your references know that someone from NCCR will be calling them. Most adoption team members call from their personal phone so advise your references that there may be an unknown number or a private number calling them.
