Story
Meet Little Guy, an approximately 11-year-old Chihuahua with a heart as big as his 6.5-pound body. This charming senior pup is the epitome of sweetness, thriving on the warmth and love of human companionship. Whether it's curling up on a lap, being held close, or enjoying the comfort of a front-facing chest carrier, Little Guy is happiest when he's with his person. Little Guy is the perfect partner for quiet, cozy evenings watching TV or even joining you for a game of Mah Jongg. He dreams of a serene home where he can spend his days and nights cuddling with a loving senior companion. This well-mannered Chihuahua is house trained and crate trained, though his foster family allows him the freedom to choose his sleeping spot. His exercise needs are minimal; he's content to lounge around the house or yard and enjoys the occasional car ride. Little Guy gets along well with other dogs, making him a great addition to a multi-pet household. While he hasn't had interaction with children, his small size and delicate nature suggest that he would do best in a home with kids aged 10 and up. Little Guy is sensitive to the cold and loves to wear clothes to keep warm, as well as having plenty of blankets to burrow into. His personality is a delightful mix of friendly, reserved, shy, quiet, and incredibly loyal. Ready to open your heart and home to this precious pup? Little Guy's minimum adoption fee is $145, with an additional $15 fee for rabies registration for McLean County residents if he is 4 months or older. Bring Little Guy into your life, and experience the unmatched joy of a loving, loyal companion. He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.

Story
Roxy is a sweet as can be 10 year old, 13 lb chihuahua mix! If you're looking for an outgoing, friendly, happy dog, she is your girl. She loves playing and being with other dogs, children, and especially her person snuggled up on the couch or sleeping in bed. She loves a good nap, but also her precious toys. Miss Roxy is making progress on housetraining again in her new foster home. She isn't able to hold it for long, but does her business outside if you take her frequently. She tolerates being in her crate if that's what must happen, but her favorite sleeping spot is nuzzled by her person's shoulder. Her favorite activities are "barkour," perching on the back of the couch watching the world go by, spending time in the yard, and we cannot stress this enough, cuddles. Take this sweet girl home and see for yourself what a joy an older dog can be!  Her minimum adoption fee is $195 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. She has been spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.

Story
Angel alert! Lainey is a 2-year-old Long-haired Chihuahua mix. She weighs just 8-pounds, and she's sooo incredibly soft with the most beautiful markings. Lainey was said to be fearful upon meeting new people. But, she warms up to women very quickly. She's a huge snuggle bug, who gets along well with other small dogs. She absolutely hated/was terrified of the veterinarian. But, we don't know if that's due to his being a male, or just because he's the vet. Lol! Give this girl a chance, and you will never be lonely again. She's seriously such a good dog! She is crate and potty trained, good on a leash, in the car, and for sure in a lap. Please, no young children. Please apply here: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/DBSR/Dog Her minimum adoption donation amount is $325. She is spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, dewormed, heart worm checked, and on flea/tick and heart worm preventatives. We are located in Bloomington, IL We do not ship, you would need to travel to pick up your babies if you live out of state. Your current pets must be up-to-date on core vaccines, spayed/neutered, and on heart worm prevention year round. You must be at least 21-years-old to adopt. Please have your veterinarian and two non-family reference phone numbers ready. The app makes you start all over if you leave the page to look up numbers.

Story
Skip! Skippity doodah is a 12-year-old, 10-pound Chihuahua mix. Skip's dad sadly away. Now Skip is hoping someone will give him a new home. He is truly adorable, timid but sweet, and loves to give kisses once he knows you. Skip is good on a leash, fine in a crate, quiet in the car, and would be okay with other laid back dogs. But, young kids and really rambunctious dogs would be too much for him. Skip likes to cuddle, but is willing to play too. He's the perfect balance of fun and calm. Skip is now our longest resident, and we aren't sure why. :,( He decided to advocate for himself with these words: "Hey you! My name's Skip. But you can call me Skipper because I'm in need of a first mate. I like to be the boss so I'd do okay as an only dog in the home, but having some laid back dogs around would be fine too. I'm very good at telling you how to make my meals but I'll eat them on my own schedule. I'll also let you know when I'm done in the yard (please be sure to have a fence). I'm a fair weather skipper so I like naps and rolling in the yard when it's sunny and warm, but limit my time outside if it's rainy or cold. It's hard to admit, but I'm not the best at telling you when I need to go out so frequent trips outside are helpful. My foster parents make me wear "pants" around the house as a precaution, but I am never fussy about putting them on. I can be a big sweetheart too so If you want to put me in your lap I'll give you plenty of kisses and I always appreciate a snuggly nap. Dog beds are a MUST, so make sure those are always available... a skipper needs his beauty rest. I'm really good in a crate and am happy to nap in there too. As much as I love to nap, I REALLY love to go on walks. My foster dad says I shave a whole minute per mile off his walking pace when we go out, so yeah... I'm fast... even if I don't walk straight all the time *shrug*. Like any skipper, I have a few quirks. I'm nervous around strangers (who isn't??). Things that shouldn't scare me make me jump (doors closing or stepping on crackly leaves). Things that SHOULD scare me I ignore (Roomba's, moving vehicles, lawnmowers). Sometimes I don't recognize familiar people or dogs so I can get a little barky but am never aggressive (duh, I'm the boss). I also don't trust shadows so sometimes I just bark at nothing (just like every good skipper should). All that to say, I know once you meet me you will look past any of my quirks. Now be an obedient first mate, and use those big paws to fill out an application and come work for me... your trustworthy Skipper. Sound like a match for you? Then, please apply: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/DBSR/Dog His minimum adoption donation amount is $245. He is neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, dewormed, heart worm checked, and on flea/tick and heart worm preventatives.

Story
Bugsy Malone is a chiweenie (Chihuahua/dachshund) who is 8-pounds and 7-years-old. Bugsy has the typical big Doxie voice, so he shouldn't go anywhere with shared walls (I.e apartments, condos). He likes to cuddle, will play with other small dogs and toys, watch television while in your lap, walks well on a leash, and likes to cruise around in the car with you. But, he needs a really secure harness as he is a Houdini with many harnesses. Please apply here: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/DBSR/Dog His minimum adoption donation amount is $295. He is neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, dewormed, heart worm checked, and on flea/tick and heart worm preventatives.
