My story

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

Anyone needing a Super Smart Texas Heeler?
Border Collie/Cattle Dog...
She is spayed and utd on vaccines... ready to work if you train her. She is potty trained, kennel trained, yard trained, very loyal.
This is a very smart dog. Don't think about taking this dog if you aren't going to work with her. She'll be bored and depressed. She's super cool...
Iris is IRRESISTIBLE! From her perky ears t her blue eye and her brown eye, and her perpetual smile! Iris is a winner! OK, Are you looking at the top of the page again? NO she is NOT a chihuahua, on the Chihuahua Rescue site. Here's the deal: Iris is the rescue of one of our volunteers, and this person has the best and kindest heart, so Iris needed rescued and she's in a place that can't accomodate her activity and energy level. Iris is super smart, opens gates, opens doors and crates, and would probably open and answer emails if she had more access to the computer! LOL! She is a wonderful and very sweet dog, a gem that would sparkle so bright it would hurt your eyes, IF ONLY she had a bit more space and attention!
Iris is spayed and microchipped She is heartworm negative and on flea and heartworm prevention. Her adoption fee is $275. She is 2 years old.

Their adoption process

1.
Submit Application

https://www.chihuahuarescuein.org/application The inquiry isn't the same as an application. A complete application is needed to meet a pet.

2.
Meet the Pet

Once the completed application is recieved and approved, the meeting is set up. You will be contacted by the foster for the pet.

3.
Home Check

A home check is done either in person or remotely to assess the practicality of the home and environment for the pet you are interested in.

4.
Pay Fee

The adoption fees for the pets range from $375 and up depending on the pet. We have 2 programs that offer a discount, for seniors & veterans

Additional adoption info

**If you are unable to pay the adoption fee ($375 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.
