Story
Chico, also lovingly called “Chico the Rabbit,” is an 8-month-old Chihuahua who loves bouncing up and down for attention and to be cradled. He ended up in our care through absolutely no fault of his own. His previous family adopted him without landlord approval, and unfortunately, sweet Chico was the one who lost his home. Thankfully, he’s now safe and exactly where he needs to be. Chico is scheduled for his neuter this week, and we’ll be sharing updates as we continue to learn more about his adorable personality. He can be a little nervous at first—which is completely understandable after everything he’s been through—but he warms up quickly. Once he trusts you, he is incredibly sweet and simply wants to be loved. Chico gets along wonderfully with both dogs and cats and currently shares his foster home with a 60-pound canine sibling. He is full of joy and excitement—once he sees you take out his leash and harness, he can’t contain his happiness! He loves car rides, sits calmly on your lap, and is crate trained—making him easy to integrate into a new home. Chico would do best in a home with adults only or with a family already familiar with the Chihuahua breed. He is looking for a foster-to-adopt home or a committed adopter who can provide the stability, patience, and understanding he deserves. He needs a kind forever family who will never give up on him again. If you can open your heart and home to Chico, please email us at info@rootrescue.org . Let’s give this little boy—the bouncing, lovable “Chico the Rabbit”—the forever home he’s been waiting for!

Our sanctuary dogs are not available for adoption. These dogs are posted to help show the number of dogs currently in our care, which allows us to receive donations and support for their ongoing needs. Sanctuary dogs are typically not adoptable due to factors such as temperament, age, or medical and health conditions, but they are deeply loved and cared for for the rest of their lives. We truly appreciate you taking the time to view and support our rescue.

Story
**Please note this is pet is currently out of town pet but we will transport this pet to NJ for you when adopted. All fees listed include transport fees.** Meet Banana Pepper! Banana Pepper is a 5-month-old male Chihuahua with a gentle soul and a whole lot of love to give. Born on 08/27/2025, he currently weighs about 7 pounds and is just as sweet as his name suggests. This adorable boy is super affectionate and loving, and he truly enjoys everyone he meets. Banana Pepper does great with people, other dogs, and cats. He’s doing very well with his puppy basics and is eager to keep learning. Banana Pepper already knows how to use a doggy door and puppy pads. He’s still working on his leash skills, but with his sweet nature and willingness to learn, he’s sure to master them in no time. Banana Pepper’s journey began with a second chance—he, his siblings, and his mom were saved from the euthanasia list by one of our dedicated fosters. Thanks to that rescue, he’s now thriving and ready to find a forever family of his own. If you’re looking for a loving, friendly, and gentle puppy, Banana Pepper could be the perfect addition to your home! Interested in becoming a forever home for Banana?
