Story
Hello all! This is Andre (not the giant) and he is a petite little dude looking for his forever home. Andre came to us as a stray, so unfortunately not much is known about his past. Andre is hesitant with new people and can be timid/shy in new situations, so we recommend that he go into a home with a family that can be patient with him and allow him to open up in his own time. He may also do better in a home with older children who can respect his boundaries as well. As always, we recommend slow and monitored introductions over a period of time between Andre and any new people/animals already in the home.

Story
ROXIE - COURTESY POSTING Roxie is a middle aged (7-9 year old) chihuahua mix that weighs in at 13 lbs. Roxie was among the 50 that were rescued alive from a hoarding situation in GA, of about 150 dogs. She is spayed now, but has been over bred in the past.  Roxie faces a few challenges; she has exhibited some neurological damage, and her back end doesn’t work as well as it should. Her stride wobbles in the rear and she has a tendency to slide her back feet on the floor. She has occasional accidents that she doesn’t know is happening. She has less feeling back there and tends to bite her feet.  She doesn’t appear to like other dogs, and would enjoy being an only dog. We have not observed her with other pets so we can’t speak to her inter-specie behavior.  Roxie is a very sweet and very loving girl, she is a true lap dog. Her favorite toys are squeaky toys that she will squeak until they stop. Roxie doesn’t bark a lot, but she does have an adorable snore. She is crate trained. Roxie would perfectly fit in a home with lots of patience, love and attention. She is truly a delightful girl.  She is spayed, UTD on shots, HW neg and on HW prevention.Her adoption donation is $250.00.

Story
Bella was born 4/9/17 so that makes her 6.5 years old. She weighs around 12 lbs. She loves to play tug of war and also likes to fetch. She is very active. She is also a total love bug. When you sit on the couch, she jumps right up and snuggles up right next to you. She will constantly nudge your hand wanting to be petted. She sleeps in the bed with you and crawls up under the covers to snuggle up next to you. She is also a chow hound. She is always begging for something to eat. She is taken out regularly when her foster mom is home. Once when her foster mom didn’t take her out soon enough, she started circling and her foster mom knew she was looking for a place to go. During the day while her foster mom is at work, Bella is left blocked off in her foster mom’s den. Pee pads are left down and she will go on them. She has not torn anything up and her foster mom is gone around 9 hours per day. Her previous foster crated her during the day and said she tore everything up and made a total mess. Her foster mom did lock her in a crate for about 3 hours one day, while she was gone, and she was fine. Bella is dog aggressive and will need to be an ONLY DOG. Even on leash when walking Bella reacts negatively to other dogs. Bella also has a high prey drive so would do best in a home without smaller animals.  Fence is required due to her dog aggression to ensure her safety.  Bella’s adoption fee is $300.00 If you are interested in the above dog, please do not email us and tell us that you are interested, but submit an adoption application.

Story
Introducing Sprout! This sweet little guy was born in October of 2023. He is 12 lbs, has beautiful rust colored fur, a few white markings and some cute scruffy hairs too! Sprout LOVES to play- running zoomies, jumping and weaving. His foster mom thinks he would be a natural for flyball or agility. It's amazing how he can jump! Sprout is a very happy, joyful boy. He loves people. He is very high energy and loves to be active, yet also loves cuddling with his foster siblings and foster parents. He has lots of love and snuggles to give. Sprout loves squeaky toys, playing fetch, and chewing on yak chews. Sprout's nickname is "Baby Clamps," given to him adoringly by his foster parents. When he was a tiny baby, he would clamp on to things and not let go. He outgrew that, but the name stuck lol. He is very good at releasing things when asked, like if he has something in his mouth he isn't supposed to have. He's a very good boy and lets his foster parents take it. Sprout may do best with a canine companion. He is best friends with his foster siblings. He loves hanging out with them, playing with them, laying on them... You get the picture. Sprout would do best with a fenced-in yard, to allow him to run and play and use the bathroom. He loves his foster family's yard! Sprout has done very well with potty training. He does, however, hesitate to go outside if the ground is wet or if it's raining. He probably learned that from his foster siblings. Sprout is up to date on vaccines, HW Negative and on HW preventative. He was neutered in April 2024. He will be microchipped prior to adoption. If you're looking for a playful, loving, energetic best friend, Sprout can't wait to meet you! Sprout's adoption donation is $350. If you are interested in the above dog, please do not email us and tell us that you are interested, but submit an adoption application. The link for the application is below. To submit an application go here……chihuahua-rescue.com/adoption-application/ An application must be submitted and approved before a meet-n-greet can be scheduled.

Story
This cutie is Frankie! Franky is believed to be approximately 6-8 years old. Little Franky found himself at a high risk kill shelter for unknown reasons and CRT scooped him up. Franky has a white coat with tan highlights, tan ears, and an adorable underbite. Franky is a happy little guy whose tail is always wagging. He absolutely loves to go for walks and is perfectly leash trained. He's also happy to lounge in the sun, on his own or with others, in a fenced yard. He's very smart and had already figured out which door to go to and how to signal that he needs to go out within an hour of being in his foster home! He's a champion snuggler and will be happy to spend hours cuddled up with his person. He'll fluff up his blanket and settle in for as long as you want. He likes to play with toys and can amuse himself or play fetch with you. He also likes to go for car rides. Franky seems to like all people and dogs in general, but we’re recommending a one person home, preferably a female, as he gets very clingy with his human. It would be best for him to be adopted by someone who is an experienced chi owner. He’s not a big fan of cats and we’d recommend a feline-free home. It is also recommended that Franky go to a home that does not have young children since any unintentional rough handling may be outside of his comfort zone. Franky was recently neutered and received a dental cleaning. Franky is heartworm positive and currently receiving treatment for this, which is covered by CRT. For this reason, he will be considered “foster to adopt” until his heartworm test comes back negative. That should not deter anyone from choosing this awesome pup - he'll be a wonderful companion for life! This adorable and sweet boy has come a long way since coming into foster care. His foster family is enamored with him, as are his two chi foster sisters. He's happy and healthy and ready for his forever home. His adoption donation is $300.00.

Story
This sweetheart is Junie B Jones. Junie is a tan-colored female chihuahua in need of a forever home. It is estimated that Junie is between 7 years and 9 years old. She weighs 11 pounds. All Junie wants is love…she just needs some patience. She has been through what no creature should have to endure. The victim of animal cruelty, she has some trust issues, but she has come a long way in trusting her foster mom. She enjoys snuggles laying right by her side, but her eyes light up when invited to climb into the lap. She gets so excited when you come home, you can see the smile and joy in her eyes. The way she lays her head on the chest tells you how much she appreciates a gentle touch. Junie gets along with other dogs, but would rather be the only one getting all the attention. Being in a foster home with multiple dogs, she has gotten accustomed to their presence, and will join in when they run around the yard. She is a darling, beautiful, sweet little girl. She is not an active dog and is more of a couch potato, but she has her moments of playfulness. She loves doggie beds and blankets and will roll around in them and squeal with delight. Junie can be handled carefully. She will snuggle close or even climb in your lap once she gets to know you, which doesn’t take long. Junie is potty trained. She will walk on a leash, under protest, and if she gets scared, she will try to get out of the harness and run. Therefore, a fenced in yard is required. She is spayed and up to date on all vetting, including dental. Junie’s mouth was very diseased when she came to CRT and the vet had to extract most of her teeth. Junie is heartworm negative and on monthly heartworm prevention. She is microchipped. She is a darling, beautiful, sweet little girl looking for her one and only. Junie’s adoption donation is $300.00. If you are interested in the above dog, please do not email us and tell us that you are interested, but submit an adoption application.
