Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
Lupe is a Chihuahua-Dachshund mix with a big personality! He can be introverted and protective, preferring a quiet home where he can relax and enjoy his favorite snacks. Though he can seem to be a bit grumpy when he first meets new people, he's just scared. Once he knows he can trust you, he’s a loyal companion who likes to hang out right next to his human. He just needs some patience and love.
Lupe is very reliably potty-trained and will go to the door when he wants to go out. He gets along with other small dogs when they are properly introduced.
Lupe has a loud bark so would not be ideal for a shared-walls situation. He likes a fenced-in yard but would be happy with leash walks. He prefers female dogs to male ones, but with a strong human leader he will adapt to having a fur brother.
Lupe is smart. He watched another foster who had to be crate-trained because of chewing issues, go into his crate after each trip outside and get a treat. So Lupe decided us to show that he is crate-trained as well! He enjoys his treats!

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.

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.
