Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi there! My name is Merlin’s Moment, and I’m a 2-year-old male Chihuahua weighing just 12 pounds. I’m a gentle soul—very shy by nature—but I adore other dogs, whether they’re big or small. Having canine companions around helps me feel safe, so I’ll need a doggy buddy (or two!) in my forever home. I’m not the cuddly, attention-seeking type, but I do enjoy being near my people and especially my four-legged friends. I love chewing on bones, and I walk beautifully on a leash—seriously, I’m a dream to walk! I’m fully potty trained as long as I get regular breaks outside, and I’m great in my crate. It’s my cozy little safe space. Humans still make me nervous, so I’ll need a patient, understanding home where I can build trust at my own pace. Because of my shy nature, a calm, quiet environment is best—no young kids, please. I’d be okay with respectful children aged 15 and up. If you’re looking for a low-maintenance, independent companion who just needs a little time and space to open up, I might be the perfect fit.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hello World! If you are looking for absolute happiness in your life, look no further.  I am Tianna, I am a small medium pup.  And I am just happy doing whatever you are doing.  Cuddling, I am in!  Running!? Lets do it! Have another dog that needs to be played with, I can do that.  Have a small kid to run around with, I am right with them.  Wanna watch a scary movie, I will be on the couch with you.  The details!  I am a 6 month old Chi mix, but you know what, my ears are awesome and indicate ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about my breed.  I am coming in about 15 lbs and might get a tad bigger.  I am working super hard on my recall, and am getting it, but still have puppy brain.  I am crate trained and stay in there while my foster parents are away.  I sleep through the night and can sleep in my crate or on your bed.  I don’t take up much space.  My house training in coming along well.  Some accidents in the beginning but I am learning the dog door and to ask to go out.  I will need some guidance on where I should go in a new house.  I am learning my basic commands sit and stay.  I will do just about anything for a treat.  My loose leash skills are ok, but I forget which way I am going.  But I absolutely love running around.  Running around the yard, running around a park.  I just love life so much.  It would be smart for me to have toys of my own.  I try not to chew on anything that’s not mine, but I need to be reminded.  I am not destructive.  I just love to relocate small items.  Be on the lookout!  I do love to bark and will bark at unknown sounds, but once I get used to my house sounds I will not bark as much.  I also have never met a cat, but I bet I will be cautious.  No prey drive for me.  If I sound like the girl for you, apply to meet me today at https://bit.ly/RRAdoptionApplication Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 18, 2025, 2:45 pm

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Baked Bean This sweet 1-year-old Chihuahua mix is learning how to enjoy the good life indoors—and he’s making amazing progress! Baked Bean is about 22 lbs of love and personality. He’s a big fan of booty scratches, tasty treats, and has one very specific life goal: to be on your lap as much as possible. He is potty trained, kennel trained, and has graduated from Bright Beginnings training class! He’s learned how to walk confidently on a leash and knows several tricks and commands. Baked Bean is a shy boy who takes time to warm up—especially around men—but once he feels safe, he blossoms into the sweetest, snuggliest, and silliest little guy. This boy has never had a place to call his own… Could your home be his happy ending? https://bit.ly/RRAdoptionApplication  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 30, 2025, 8:11 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet El Nina! This sweet little girl was found pregnant and was never claimed by anyone. We don’t know her history, but we’ve learned a lot about her in the past few months. This little girl just wants to be loved. She is very territorial and needs work being around people and other dogs who she doesn't count as her family. She needs a very good introduction to other dogs and will resource guard her people and space. She is looking for a home that will provide her with safety and security, but who will also teach her impulse control and will socialize her. She would likely be happiest as an only dog. A warm lap where she can be cuddled and loved is all she really wants. She is so sweet with her family members, but has a hard time with strangers, so a quiet home without many visitors would be great for her.   Apply to meet me at https://bit.ly/RRAdoptionApplication Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 21, 2025, 6:32 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Panther! Hi! My name is Panther. I’m an almost 9-year-old male chihuahua. Being an older gentleman, I’m a little set in my ways. I like food, the occasional walk/sprint in the backyard, and a nice cozy blanket. If someone is snuggled with me in the blanket, that is even better! I take a minute to feel comfortable with people, but once I warm up, I think I’m pretty easy. Older kids would be better for me since I can be a little jumpy. I’m really good with other dogs but I don’t love cats. I sleep in my crate at night like a champion and sometimes during the day when my foster parents are at work. I know how to use a doggy door, but my foster mom says I need a potty-training schedule so that I don’t have accidents.  Maybe she just doesn’t understand my cues yet. I blame her.
