Chihuahua puppies and dogs in Mukwonago, Wisconsin

About Me: Name: Domino Breed (or best guess): Chihuahua mix Approximate Age: 8 yr Gender: Male Approximate Weight: 12 lb Adoption Fee: Reduced Fee $300 Requirements: Patient Adopter Why In Rescue: Owner passed away Profile: Domino has been with Bichon and Little Buddies for over 2 years as we have worked with him to have him become comfortable with humans other than his owner.  When he was surrendered, we were told he is paranoid - and that does fit him.  He gets worried when he has a tag on his collar or when he is wearing a sweater.  He has stranger danger, so isn't going to want to be in a household where people are coming and going a lot or where he is expected to go visiting.  While he has some issues, he is a funny and loving guy to the people he has bonded with.  He will sit excitedly, waiting for one of his chosen ones to kneel down and open his kennel door so he can leap out and give a hug.  It is now time for him to venture out and find a family of his own.  While he lived with other dogs in his previous home, at the shelter there are a number of dogs he doesn't get along with - primarily males, so he may do best as an only dog or a female dog with a slow introduction.  Domino went for a short home visit with a volunteer to see how he would be in a home.  He had issues with other dogs in the house when the foster mom had food.  We are hoping for an only dog home for him to lessen the chance for issues if he decided to try to guard his person or his food.  He did warm up to visitors with some time, but will likely always need a slow introduction.   If you are looking to adopt a dog that really needs you, Domino may be that guy.  He is an athletic little guy who will climb up to the top of his kennel so he can look out and see what is going on.  If you can offer Domino a patient and loving home, please fill out the pre-adoption application and we can discuss more things about him.

About Me: Name: Rambo, Rooney, Brandy Breed (or best guess): Chihuahua mixes possibly Jack Russel terrier Approximate Age: 9 Weeks  Gender: male Approximate Weight: 4-6 lbs  Adoption Fee: $650 Requirements: Patient adopter, who is willing to train and potty train a new puppy Why In Rescue: breeder surrender/ puppy mill Profile:   These three came from a commercial breeder/puppy farmer who  was not able to sell him to a broker or pet store.  They are very sweet and cuddly but a little shy too. Dogs from commercial breeders are generally undersocialized (often very scared/shy/skittish) and probably never lived in a house.  They will need to learn things like how to walk on a leash, go up stairs, and what things like a television are.  They need a patient adopter who will give them the time they need to adjust and to learn to trust people.  Every baby step forward needs to be celebrated, and the dog needs to be accepted for who they are at each step.  Some dogs can adjust quickly and learn how to be a loved pet pretty easily.  Others can take a long time to even be comfortable with things like walking through the house and being in the same room as a person.  No matter how far and how fast the breeder dogs progress, they are wonderful dogs and deserve a great home after their life on the puppy farm.  A fence or at least a secure fenced in potty area is highly recommended for the dog's safety, and may be required for some dogs.  Another small dog in the house can also help many former breeders adjust faster to life in a home, and also may be required in some cases.  We do put the needs of the dog's first, so it is nothing personal if we determine a particular dog isn't suitable for your specific home and living situation. If considering adopting a former breeding dog, the following article is good to read to help you understand the special needs these dogs may have.  http://nowisconsinpuppymills.com/mill-survivors.html If interested in adoption, the first step is filling out the pre-adoption application at http://www.bichonrescues.com/pre-adoption-form-dog  If link isn't clickable, please copy/paste or visit http://www.bichonrescues.com.  Please note, filling out inquiry forms on Petfinder or Adoptapet and/or their application forms does not constitute an application for one of our dogs.  Priority in responding to inquires and applications is always to the applications filled out on our website, time constraints limit the number of other inquires we can reply to.

Breed: Chihuahua Color: Tan Age: 8 month young Size: Small Weight: 8 lbs Sex: Male Meet Pepe! Pepe is an adorable 8-month-old Chihuahua seeking his forever home! Pepe is very shy and skittish, he will need lots of love and patience to help him feel safe and get his playful personality to blossom. Pepe gets along with dogs (with proper introductions), older kids, and cats, and loves playtime with his foster sibling. He is currently learning to walk on a leash and again he will need time and patience to truly feel comfortable enough to walk confidently, but we know he will do it with the right person and encouragement. Pepe is potty trained and finds comfort in his crate, though his favorite thing is to cuddle close to your face. He is a silly boy for sure! We do recommended you provide him with a dedicated space initially to help him settle in and feel secure as the adoption process can be overwhelming for these little guys. Pepe loves cuddles and yummy treats. He is a charming little guy, and he will make a wonderful addition to any loving home. To meet Pepe please complete an application through Tiny Paws Small Dog Rescue. Adoption fee of $650 required. He is neutered, microchipped and up-to-date on vaccines.

We've all heard the song Bad Bad Leroy Brown. It's probably playing in your head now (sorry!). Well, we are here to introduce Small, Small Leroy Brown. It's not as catchy, but we think you'll agree he's pretty great, and definitely NOT meaner than a junkyard dog. This delightful young pup is about 8 months old and should weigh about 20 lbs when he's done growing. Leroy is crate trained and working hard at remembering we go potty outside! He loves running around in his yard and going on long walks. He has a great time playing with dogs and would love to have a dog friend to live with. Leroy's perfect family will have lots of energy to keep up with his puppy parties, have lots of toys and bones to play with and no small children. If you're looking for a wonderful small dog to take on adventures and cuddle on the couch while binge watching your favorite movies, look no farther, Leroy is your guy. Apply today!
