My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
This 4.6lb, compact lady wants to be your permanent companion. If you're an Elle looking for your Bruiser, Chica may be the gal for you.
Chica is a devoted lap warmer and lover of treats. She's a constant companion who does great in public & will hang out in a small dog sling/purse/stroller as long as it means she gets to stay with you. She has severe luxating patellas in both rear legs so she prefers to ride or be carried rather than walking on a leash. This can also cause her difficulties with stairs at times.
Chica loves to give kisses and readily gives them to just about anybody that is willing to hold and cuddle her, preferring people over animals. She would love a home where she gets to spend 24/7 with her humans, always on a lap or laying beside them (or going places with them). She will not do well being left home alone. She loves to potty outside in temps above 50⁰, otherwise she prefers a potty pad.
Since they've spent their whole lives together, Chica would love to be adopted with her sister, Bonita. We are offering a special adoption fee of only $100 each if adopted together.

Fee is held for one week during trial adoption. After one week, if adopters decide to add the dog to their family, the money is deposited.

We are always here to help with any pet questions you may have and we host pet events for our adopters as a chance for their pets to socialize and provide a network of support.

More about this rescue
Chihuahuas are a very unique breed. They are funny, loving, and incredibly affectionate. We believe that every chihuahua deserves a warm lap, cuddles, and love and it is our goal in finding families for each and every dog that comes into our rescue. It is also our goal to provide education to others on the breed, as chihuahuas often get stereotyped as yappy and aggressive. We hope to show our local communities that, with proper training, chihuahuas can be calm and well-behaved pets, suitable for any home.
