Story
Meet Elon! Elon is a sweet 1.5 year old Chihuahua/Jack Russell mix weighing about 18 lbs. This boy came from a severe hoarding situation, so the world is still a bit overwhelming for him. He’s learning what it means to be safe, loved, and part of a family — and he needs someone willing to take that journey with him. Elon is very food motivated and that has been a huge help in building trust and working on training. He is not fully housebroken yet, but we are actively working on it. Like many small dogs, he can be a little stubborn, so patience and consistency will be important. He does wonderfully with other dogs and cats and actually seems to take comfort in their presence. He will approach his people on his own terms and has already started to show glimpses of his gentle, affectionate personality. With time, love, and understanding, Elon will continue to bloom. If you have a quiet home, a kind heart, and a desire to help a deserving pup find his confidence, Elon may be your match. He is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and up to date on preventative care. His adoption fee is $250.November 11, 2025, 3:16 pm

Meet Ketrina! Ketrina is a 1.5-year-old tan and white Chihuahua/Jack Russell mix weighing about 18 lbs. She came from the same severe hoarding situation as Friday, and while she shares many of the same sweet qualities, she is the shyer of the two. With each passing day, though, she’s becoming a little braver and a little more open to love. Ketrina enjoys quiet companionship, gentle scratches, and observing the world from a cozy, safe spot. She’s still learning what it means to be part of a caring family, so she’ll need someone patient, understanding, and willing to move at her pace. She is not fully housebroken yet, but progress is being made. Like many small dogs, she can be a bit stubborn, so consistency and positive reinforcement will be important. Ketrina does wonderfully with other dogs and cats, and she often feels more comfortable with furry friends around. She will approach people when she’s ready and has started showing touches of her tender, affectionate personality. Ketrina is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and up to date on preventative care. If your heart has a soft spot for a shy, gentle soul who just needs time to blossom, Ketrina might be the perfect match. November 14, 2025, 3:44 pm

Meet Friday! Friday is a 1.5-year-old Chihuahua/Jack Russell mix weighing about 15 lbs. She’s a beautiful tan and white girl who is friendly and growing more confident every single day. She absolutely loves gentle scratches and napping on the ottoman—her favorite relaxing spot. Friday came from a severe hoarding situation, so the world can still feel a bit overwhelming to her. She’s learning what it means to be safe, loved, and part of a family — and she needs someone patient and kind to help her continue that journey. Friday is not fully housebroken yet, but we’re actively working on it. Like many small dogs, she can be a little stubborn, so consistency and patience will make all the difference. She does wonderfully with other dogs and cats and seems to take comfort in their company. She approaches people on her own terms and has already begun to show her gentle, affectionate side.

Meet Bobby! Bobby is a 1.5-year-old male Chihuahua/Jack Russell mix weighing about 13 lbs. With his light tan coat and bright, expressive eyes, he’s as adorable as he is spirited. Bobby came from a severe hoarding situation, but unlike many of his friends, he stepped into rescue life with a surprising amount of confidence. He sees himself as the little protector of his group — always alert, always watching, and definitely the most vocal of the bunch. If something needs to be announced, Bobby will make sure everyone knows! Though he’s confident, Bobby is still learning how to live like a normal dog. He is not yet housebroken, and we are actively working on it. In true small-dog fashion, he can be a bit stubborn, so patience and positive consistency will be key. Bobby does great with other dogs and cats and takes comfort in being part of a pack. He will approach people on his own terms but has already shown that he enjoys affection once he feels safe. His personality shines brightest when he feels understood and supported. Bobby is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and up to date on preventative care. If you’re looking for a bold, lively companion with a big personality in a small body, Bobby might be the perfect match.November 16, 2025, 9:07 am

This little girl is Agnes. She's a Chihuahua mix of 1 year and only 11 pounds .She can be shy at first, and she does need a bit of TLC, but she also loves playing with other dogs, and she enjoys being around people. Ready to give this little one some love? (Due to her small size, we feel she would not thrive in a home with small children who don't always know their own strength.) (posted 1121025, ME) Adoption Fee: $395.00-- covers microchip, worming, all vaccines, monthly heart worm preventative, monthly tick/flea preventative, spaying/neutering, health certificate, and complete medical records. Transport Fee: $160.00-- We consider the transport to be of great importance and, as such, take particular care of the dogs during the trip. We make every effort to arrive with healthy and minimally stressed dogs. **It is rare that we know with certainty the ages or mixes that make up our dogs, but we do our best to be as accurate as possible based upon our experience. **November 20, 2025, 4:20 pm
