Story
*CURRENTLY IN A FOSTER HOME. PLEASE CALL 815-858-2265 TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT TO MEET PEACHES* I am a very unique girl, according to a DNA test I am a mix of Chihuahua, Toy Fox Terrier, Japanese Chin, and 13 other breeds! I was found as a stray and have been to a few homes; I am finding it hard to find my place. But thanks to my foster family I know Id do well in a home with another dog and a fenced in yard. I have learned so much by being around other dogs, they show me what I should and shouldnt be doing and their companionship helps me burn off my excess energy. I am very good at catching things, especially treats, they are my favorite, but I can catch toys too. I am looking for a furever family that will accept my loyalty and loving companionship, and who will also understand it may take a little time to warm up. Please submit an application for me today!

Story
Scooby the doll, is looking for nothing more than patience, love, companionship, and cuddles. At about a year old, somehow this guy is pretty chill; but definitely has the moments of zoomies, jumps, runs, dances, and chases, at about 8 pounds, that's no biggie! Although Scooby is pretty shy when it comes to strangers, at first; he never fails to warm up, and indulge in all the love they've got to offer, ALWAYS reciprocating with plenty of kisses! He' done just that as he begins to flourish in his amazing foster home - here he is showing more and more growth, and learning to be comfortable in all sorts of situations. If I were to guess where Scooby's happy place would be, once home, and comfortable; it'd be cuddled right up next to someone he loves, and napping under a blanket, content as can be. Scooby LOVES other dogs, especially those around his size, ignores cats, and is occasionally intimidated by loud, fast moving young children/loud noises. This sweet boy seems to have all of his basic skills accounted for, including his ADORABLE puppy dog eyes. We think Scooby will do amazingly in just about any home willing to provide the time, patience, and understanding for his adjustment. Especially considering his genuine sweetness, and understanding of the basics!

Story
Milton is the perfect companion dog; his favorite thing in his day to day is simply snuggling up on a lap, as he sighs, and gives all the kisses he can. You could say that I'm biased towards Milton (I absolutely am, He is far beyond perfection) but he is the perfect dog for anyone looking for a more laid-back, relaxed, and loving Chihuahua. This little man gets to spend most days out in the lobby with me, on my lap, or sleeping peacefully on my desk; he is the best. Inviting Milton onto your lap is the greatest thing ever to him, and the best way to his big heart. I am a true believer in there not being a single dog like him, as he's far past adorable, far past sweet, cuddly, snuggly, and the loviest little bug, EVER! Not to mention, all he really asks for in return is a bit of exercise, and for you to love him just as much in return! At about 5 years old, he weighs in somewhere around 11 pounds, making him the ultimately perfect, portable size for just about any lifestyle! Milton does great around other dogs of similar size, but he also does amazing with bigger dogs, he just makes it clear when he wants some space. We've also cat-tested him so that you don't have to, and he did great! Milton does great with kids who are gentle, and calm. If you're on the hunt for literally the bestest boy in the whole world, he is it! You may have noticed Milton's lack of a lower mandible. It was surgically removed prior to making his way to us to remove the cancerous cells that were growing on his bottom lip area. Without a lower jaw - he doesn't let it hold him back at all! In fact, he is extremely resilient and can do everything normally!
