Story
Meet 1 year old, 14 lb Chihuahua/Pug mix puppy, Peanut. Peanut was taken into rescue from the lobby of a local shelter, where he was being given up. Peanut is a high-energy, outgoing, extremely active pup. Peanut has not been socialized well to other dogs and needs training. He barks at new people and other dogs. Thus, he will do best as an only dog with lots of attention, enrichment, and playtime in a quiet home. Because of his anxiety around unknown factors, he will not do well in an apartment, condo, or other high-density housing situation—or with children or a busy household. Apply to meet Peanut at adoptocpets.org/adopt

Story
Hi, I’m Calyx! I’m a 10monthold Terrier/Chihuahua mix (born 06/08/2025), weighing in at a perfect little 10 pounds — just the right size for snuggles, adventures, and being carried around like the royalty I clearly am. I look a lot like the terrier side of my family, complete with the cutest scruffy face that gives me maximum personality points. I’m playful, affectionate, and full of charm. I love toys, sunbathing, splashing in the water, and playing with other dogs. I also adore being picked up and getting all the pets — I’m happiest when I’m close to my people. And don’t let my size fool you… I can keep up with the big dogs just fine. I’m already spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, and microchipped. I’m still working on my potty training since I’m young, but I’m learning more every day. More than anything, I’m dreaming of the day I finally meet my forever family — maybe that’s you. If you’re interested in meeting or adopting Calyx, please visit www.LOLR.org and fill out an adoption application. ##2425539##

Sassy

Chihuahua

Female, Senior
Trabuco Canyon, CA
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Sassy is a sweet 7 pound Senior Chihuahua. Sassy is a silver fox but she gets around. She is a cuddlier and would love to sit on someone’s lap or lay next to them all day. She has gone blind but she is resilient and finds her way to her food and around the grass to do her business. She is not a barker. Not once. If she wants something or needs to go out, she lets you know. She gets along with other friendly dogs and has never snapped or been unkind. She belonged to an elderly lady who has had to go into assisted living due to memory issues and is no longer able to care for Sassy. If you want a little dog that doesn’t do much (other than sleep, eat, and cuddle), Sassy is the perfect companion for you!
