My name is charlie and I am doing so much better now. I was a frightened little guy who just needed some time to adjust being around humans. With lots of love and attention I am a new guy now. I have come to trust my foster mom and and am even playing with toys. I will need some time to adjust to my new home when I am adopted. I will gets pics soon. I am very camera shy!

Small package Chihuahua. Needs quieter environment. Best for adult home.

Kind gentleman. Looking for a forever home. Please find room in your heart for me.

I'm a tiny older gentleman looking for a relaxing, loving home. My past is a bit spotty, kind of like my hair right now! LOL I have been living in a shed and being eaten alive by fleas before my foster mommy came and got me. Now I am living the good life, but would love a forever home soon as I hear they are even cooler than foster care!

My name is Coco and I am a little shy. I'm not to used to peolpe wanting to hold me and love me just quite yet. I am doing better every single day. I love being in a home where I get all the attention. I am ok with the other dogs here. I will update you on my progress.

My name is Jack and I am an energentic little guy tht loves to play. I was picked up on the side of a road way out in the country and some very nice humans have been loving me and taking great care of me. I don't get along very well with young kids right now, but I'm trying real hard to be nice. I really want someone who will love me and teach me to be a very good little dog and I will be your very bestest friend forever.

Hello I am Vinnie. I am new to the rescue and looking to find a forever home. I have only had one owner and have been well taken care of during my life. My owner has some things going on in her family and found it necessary to find new homes for me and Monte. I am a quiet guy and would do best in a quiet household with no small children.

Hello I am Monte. I am a great little guy with a very outgoing personality. Like my brother Vinnie I have only had one mommy in my life and was very well taken care of. I am an all around great dog and would do well in any environment. My foster mom will update as soon as she learns more about me.

Every baby deserves their first and every interaction with those around them to be positive. Unfortunately, in Eeyore's first two years of life he has the wisdom that no dog, nor human for that matter, should ever know. Eeyore was seized from a cruelty case - 50% of his hair missing, the tips of his ears cut off, wedges sliced out of the remaining parts of his ears, scabs covering his body. This young boy looks like a very old man for what he went through. Yet, he is a lesson to us all in trust and forgiveness. Upon coming into my home he gave me warning growls when I would pass him by, but I just gave him his space - I didn't know what all he had been through or felt and I wanted our contact to be on his terms. By day 2 he asked me to pet him, showing me his belly. By day 3 he was dancing for me on his hind legs, begging to be picked up! All he wants to do is love and be loved. I've known him for less than a week and the old soul in these puppy eyes has taught me volumes.

This freckle-faced stray found himself unclaimed at animal control & at risk of euthanasia until rescued by CRU. Howdy is very nice, is good with other dogs & cats but would do best in a home without children. Howdy is crate & leash trained. Howdy does not like to go to the doctor or have his nails trimmed but he does love to roll over on his back for chest rubs, go riding in the car, take a bath & explore the yard. Adoption donation is $250.00.

Rudy Tooty was an owner surrender from Kentucky. This little dog was just too much for his elderly owner to manage. Rudy is ok with other dogs and cats but needs an experienced Chi/dog owner and a home without children due to his being mouthy when very excited. Rudy had a lot of freedom to roam in Kentucky and not much human handling so sometimes he is unsure or people. He wants to be in control and will test humans to see just what he can get away with but he does respond to firm verbal commands. Rudy will need an owner who can be his pack leader and not the other way around. Rudy Tooty is crate trained, walks well on a leash and his potty training is improving. Rudy has great potential for a patient adopter who is willing to give him some guidance, stability and love. Could that special person be you? Adoption donation $250.00

Update 7/24/08 - Wow, is all we can say. In just a short month Hermie has had a complete change of both personality and health diagnosis. Due to having such horrible dental issues we had a dental done on him shortly after he came to us. A month and 6 teeth less later he is a bouncy, happy, playful little man whose heart murmer has been down graded to just a gallop. He is a total joy to have around the house and a wonderful snuggle buddy. Hermie is such a needy little soul. Frightened and confused by the turn of events in his life, he has no idea who to trust anymore. Unfortunately although CRU can do many things for this boy to return him to a save and healthy life, we can not do anything about the fact that he was diagnosised with a grade 4/5 heart murmer. We do not know how many years sweet little Hermie may have left, but we do know that we intend to make them the happiest years of his life. Hermie is available for adoption but will need to go to a home that is comfortable with his medical condition and also that is quiet and very loving. No children or large dogs for Hermie please.

Pepe's owner died. He's adapted to his foster mom and home very quickly - he enjoys going for walks, rides and loves to play ball. He's a very well behaved stocky boy who'd make an elderly person a great companion. He's being fostered in New Waterford, Ohio

Where I lived it was blistering hot in the summers, freezing in the winters, and wet in the rain. I barked for food, water, and attention until my throat was sore. I gave up. There was one thing I looked forward to in my so called life; the cage door would rattle and open and they would place another dog with me for awhile. But he was not my light in this darkness, it was what I knew would follow. After he left, a miracle happened. It made the sad days bearable, for I knew that small rays of hope and love grew inside me and would soon find their way into the sun. I would be able to give the gift of my unconditional love to another life. I would cherish every moment until they took them, too soon, from me, and lay waiting for my next miracle. I am a mother. One day was different. They took me out. I wondered, would I now get to join my many babies in the happy, joyful lives I had always hoped they had gone to? I was put in the back of a truck with several other dogs. My heart broke when, as we started to drive away, I saw, through the blur that had become my sight, one of my children lying in a cage just down the line from mine. Had they stole her voice too? The place they took us to was loud. There were so many desperate dogs crying for their freedom. Had they not learned yet that no one was listening? I heard a lot of talking and then watched them walk away. Where were we? Then a shock went through my body; hands reached for me and picked me up in a way I was not accustomed. For the first time in my life, aside from being hushed, a soft voice spoke to me. She said, "Don't worry, we'll find you help." I am in foster care now. And my heart sings because I have found somebody to mother. He did not come into foster care with the others and me. He was here waiting. Small, fragile, and broken, like me. I spoke softly in his ear, "Don't worry, I am your help." Morghanna was dumped at a shelter by a backyard breeder along with ..... ....... .......... She is only 9 but her body is ancient. Behind her clouded eyes you see a hidden spirit - one that has buried itself so far for fear of being broken. They may have broken her body - she has a rib that juts out of her chest from being allowed to heal wrong, hair loss from going without flea treatment, a bristled coat from malnutrition, an emaciated body from lack of food - but her spirit lives for her new "baby", Hermie. She has adopted him as her own. This tiny 5lb, 5yr old boy has a slightly open fontanel, a grade 4 heart murmur, but she loves him just the same. How could we possibly take him from her? These two very sweet, broken babies who have never known love until now are looking for a guardian angel.

I'm a shy little girl and need a good loving home. I was in the pound and it really scared me. I'm in fostercare now with my friends and its not so bad. But I sure would like my own human. Do you have room for me in your heart and home?

Hi I dont know why I'm not with my humans anymore. They dropped me off at some scarey place with lots of other animals and never came back. My foster mom says thats ok cause she will find me new humans that will keep me and love me for ever. I sure hope so. I have lots of kisses to give. If you want some of my kisses send in an application. I promise I wont be too picky as long as you promise to love and take care of me.

Well its the same old story: a new baby moves in and its out in the dog house for me! But that is OK. I know there is some one out there that will love me. I'm a great little guy. I love to play and cuddle. I dont eat alot. I am house broke and love to go for walks. I'm not too fond of human kids. They are ok as long as they dont pull my fur and slobber all over me. But I kinda get scared when they start grabbing at me, besides it hurts! Do you have room in your home and heart for a great little guy like me? If so get that application in fast. My foster mom says I'm so cute, I'll be adopted before I know it!

My name is Lucky boy am I ever. I was found as a stray and almost run over by a car. I was taken in by Chihuahua Rescue and now am safe and sound. I am sweet and loveable and get along well with all the other dogs here. I am learning how to walk on a leash and how to play with toys. I just want to be next to you all the time and get lots of attention. Please adopt me!! A fenced yard is necessary for lucky

My name is Genenva and I am a sweet loveable chi-doxie mix. I seem to like all the attention for myslef i prefer to be the only samll dog. I love car rides and nice long walks too. Adopt me for your forever friend. I am fostered in crown Point In you must be willing to drive to adopt her.

My name is Will and I flew all the way from Dallas TX to get to my foster home here in Indiana. You see I was a stray found on the road and a great girl who is a vet tech took me in or I would have died. It was very imortant to my first mom that she find me the best home possible so she decide to send me here. I am a very GOOD BOY!! Very playful and have a great temperment. I am easy going and just love all the fosters here. Grace and I are very attached and in Love with each other. We must be adopted together. Can' you please find room in your home and heart for Grace and I? We really are the best 2 little chi's.

I am a sweet little girl who is so loving and so easy to care for. I love to sit on your lap and get back scratches and belly rubs. I am so happy I was saved from the high kill shelter I was in. I will do anything to please you. All I want is a warm place to sleep good food and lots of attention. Adopt me please!

My name is Domino. I'm about a year old. I am very shy and am working on my social skills. It takes me a while to adjust to new places and people. If you have the patience and understanding, please apply for me! Also, Please keep in mind when applying that I cannot be shipped.

Coco is a very sweet little guy. He gets along with his chi friends and loves to follow his foster mom around the house where ever she goes. Coco needs a quiet home with adults only. Someone should be home most of the time, because he doesn't like being left alone. Since he was rescued from a shelter, he is everyone's friend at the vet and to all the 2 leggers he has come across. He enjoys car rides too! See Coco is older and not many people think older dogs are adoptable, but Coco has a lot of love to give with his kisses and can wag his little tail just as fast as the younger ones!

My name is Mya. I used to be a breeder dog that was used just to produce puppies for profit. I was not used to being held and loved and treated like a little girl should be. It took me a while to build up trust in my foster mom.I am slowly progressign every day. I am still a little fearful of humans but with a lot of patience and Love I know I will make a great little pet for someone who understands me. If you would like to adopt me fill out an application please.

Hi I am Dottie. This shelter would have euthenized me but this nice lady said I was way too cute and such a good girl to let that happen to me. I love to play and run. I go to the door when I have to go. I love to be on the couch watching TV with my foster family, and would love to sit on the couch and just be held. I need a home with lots of love. I get along well with the other dogs at my foster home. There are cats here too, but, I like to chase them and bark at them.

**Foster Home located in New York** My name is Mystery and I am a sweet,squishy chiweenie. I am very shy at first and act almost like I have been hit in the past, but once I get to know you I will love you forever. I love to follow you around, sit on your lap, and sneak down under the covers at night. My foster mommy says I am doing okay on the housetraining, but I really prefer to use piddle pads. Could you make me yours forever?

A very timid but bubbly, chubby tail wagger with those big chi eyes! She's undergone treatment for heartworms and a bladder infection and remarkably recovered with just a very mild heart murmur that doesn't affect her quality of life in the least. She's pretty much piddle-pad broken. Her previous breeder/owner didn't spend alot of time spoiling her, so she is independant and would make a good companion for another dog - unless YOU would like to adopt her and show her what it is like to be an only child and pampered daily!!! She's waiting!!! She's being fostered in New Waterford, Ohio.

Blondie is a wonderful boy. He is playful and wants love. He is large for a chihuahua which would make him a good companion for children, because he is not so small and delicate. Blondie also likes to cuddle and share the blankets in your bed. Any family would be lucky to have him.

My name is Daisy and I am a puppy mill survivor. I am so happy to be in a nice warm home and get lots of attention. I will do anything to please you. I love to sit on your lap and get back scratches and belly rubs. I can be a little shy at first til I get to know you. I am doing very well on my housetraining. Won't you adopt me please?

I'm a Pug-Chi - a bigger girl - ideal for playful kids. I'm maybe 15 lbs. I'm not too keen on going outside to potty - i'd rather do the piddle pad thing. My foster mom has to PUT me out and I prefer she come with me. I don't like cats or birds. I'm a very well mannered house dog - I just need a basic obedience class to teach me not to jump up at smaller kids coz sometimes I scratch them. I just get so excited to play - they tell me it's a "pug thing". I am crate trained. I am with my brother Romeo but we are socialized enough to go our separate ways. I am a very protective watchdog!

Hi, my name is Romeo, and I am a little lover! My foster mom says I'm alert and very observant. I become putty in your hands when you rub behind my ears, and massage my neck and shoulders. I love affection and I'm not shy in displaying my gratitude to you with kisses. I should probably be in a family as an only dog, unless you can adopt my sister Spice with me; if not, I understand. It'd be great if you or someone else were home most of the time. I am very devoted and I will keep a close eye on you to protect you. I love to take walks, and have enjoyed some rides in a doggie stroller. I am house trained and do not require lots of trips outside. My foster mom thinks I'm a little goofy because I like being completely under the covers in bed, and having an extra cover to hide myself under when I sit in the chair...I know...I'm cute! I like to cuddle up with you when you watch tv, and I tend to fall asleep leaning against your chest while wrapped up in your arms. I've been shuffled around since my owner surrendered me, and I need to get into a forever home so I can have a stable, loving environment. I have so much love and companionship to give to someone and I would make a very loyal pet. Do you have room in your life for that kind of fulfillment? Could you please adopt me soon?

My name is Krispy and I was rescued from a shelter just in time. I had a few allergies when I came into foster care but am doing great now. I am a real playful kinda guy. I just love everyone I meet. I get along well with other dogs and kids too. Please adopt me!!

Hi, my name is Daphne but my foster mom calls me Momma! I was rescued from a shelter with my 8 babies...yes 8 little babies! Because I was so thin, the Dr. said they have worn me out! I am getting better day by day. My foster mom is feeding me this really great food. I have put on some weight and can't wait to gain more. I am very affectionate and love to get affection in return. Can you give me the affection I will need for the rest of my life?

**Foster Home located in New York** Who can resist my adorable face? My foster mom says I am just a doll baby! I am young and playful and looking for a home where I can have a good time. People I don't know scare me at first, but what chihuahua isn't a little nervous at times? I will warm up to you quickly and will let you rub my belly. Can you give me a forever home?

"Munch" is just the happiest squirmy wiggle-worm - he's happy to be out of the puppy mill! He'll need more housetraining. but if taken out frequently, he maintains a clean crate. He should be ok with older children. If you're looking for a chi to brighten up your day, "Munch" is the one!

I am a sweet, very laid back little boy - you hardly know I'm there sometimes! I was an owner surrender because I started having seizures but now they happen fairly infrequently, but the rescue is keeping phenobarbitol on hand just in case it is epilipsy. I am only 1 year old and already in search for my new home.

Carmello is a Chihuahua who came from an ill breeder who could no longer care for her numerous dogs. Carmello is timid but not aggressive, barks at and stays away from new people. Due to his shyness, Carmello must go to an adult only home with a securely fenced yard. Once Carmello gets to know you he is loving and attentive, likely to be a one-person dog and not readily accepting of strangers. Housebreaking continues to be a challenge and most likely will never be achieved 100%. He loves to be picked up so he can give you kisses and gnaw on your nose. Carmello tolerates his Doberman brother but really loves to play with dogs his own size and cats too.

I am a little guy, but i am a big flirt with the ladies ;) I like play wrestling and taking long rides in the car, and If you let me I will spend hours napping on your lap and snuggling up in your arms. I love laying in bed at night, but I'm crate trained and won't make a peep at night... well ok, I do snore alittle but noone is perfect =) I love kids of all ages (as long as they aren't too rough with me), and I love to bounce and run around like a little deer if you let me loose in the yard! I am shy when I first meet new dogs and people, but when I get to know you I'm a big sweetheart. I am looking for someone I can spend the rest of my life with. Someone who doesn't have alot of other dogs because I love to be spoiled. If you think you are that special person then Please adopt me! =D ~~~~~Looks at you with my adorable little sad puppy dog eyes~~~~~

Reggie was found by a lady in Dayton who was kind enough to travel 4 hrs to bring him to me. Ol' Regg settled right into his foster home making his way down to the kennel and the barn as he helped with the chores. He's a perfect gentleman and quiet as a mouse. At night he'll jump in bed and sleep against your back under the covers. Other dogs, cats, horses, geese - he's cool with all of them. He was already neutered when found so we're getting him ready for his first trip to the vet and he'll be good to go! UPDATE: Reggie's teeth were alot worse off than thought - he had a total of 13 pulled! I told him the Tooth Fairy doesn't carry that much cash on her and to just put a few at a time under his pillow. The nice thing about Reg is that he's not pesty if you're eating. Loves to go for walks and rides in the car. Now how can you resist those crinkled up ears???

Hello my name is Flower and I came to the rescue with my sister Sequoya, our human Mommy had allergies and her landlord said she couldn't keep us. Luckily my sister has been adopted, although..I am still waiting! I am a happy healthy little girl and hope to find someone who can give me a forever home. I don't really like other animals because I want all of the attention. I also don't do well with little kids either. It takes me a while to adjust to new places and people, so if you have the patience and understanding, please apply for me! Also, Please keep in mind when applying that I cannot be shipped.

We haven't even met, but I have to tell you... I'm in love already... and so are you!! I want to lay on my back, cradled in your arms and fall asleep looking into your eyes, knowing I am in my dream already, even before I close my eyes - I'm with you! How could you possible resist this face?? I will woo you and within moments you will be mine forever! So take me home, and kiss me until your lips fall off! :)

CRU pulled me from a shelter in GA just in the nick of time - I was going to be put to sleep that morning if they hadn't called! Now I'm looking forward to living a long and happy life with you! :)

Jonah was released to us because he does not do well with children and the family just had their second addition. He does do well with adults and seems to prefer women. He has recently been neutered so he's feeling a bit down right now. He'll be seeing everything in a brand new light soon. He is available for an adoption fee of $250 and can be picked up in Jefferson City, MO.

I don't know why my previous owner left me in the house when they moved, thank goodness I was found. All I want to do is cuddle and hangout with my favorite person. I am a little shy at first but I warm up very quickly to everyone. I may not be a frisky puppy but I will make a wonderful companion for just about anyone.

My name is Pepito and my owner had to move and wouldn't take me with them. They sent me to this very scary place and I hated it there. I am now in foster care in a nice warm home with foster dogs my own size. I am a little nervous but doing better every day. I even give big kisses now. I will keep you updated on my progress.

Chico is a six month old darling who loves the attention of his owner. His last home didn't want him due to he got over teacup size. He is fixed and utd on shots. Loves to play with toys with his mommy or by himself. If you want a young cutie pie for your home then pick Chico.

Update: Butters is doing sooo great at her foster home. She hardly shows her teethies ever, and when she does it is usually b/c the other dogs are touching her or trying to play with her. She is a one dog family kinda gal, but with people, she is just a love. She is soooo sweet and such a ham, she makes us laugh all day long! She loves to sit on our laps, snuggle, give kisses, and roll around on our laps. If you are looking for a lap dog who is sweet and so funny, Butteball is the best! She would do best as the only dog. And you must have at least one lap available b/c she wants to lay on it and snuggle 24 hours a day!!!! Butters jumps so high, and gets sooo excited for attention, she even nudges your hand and begs for more! I came into rescue a total mess. Somebody had dipped me in motor oil - maybe they thought I had mange - but really it was just hair loss due to flea allergies. My bald back was covered in scabs and blisters, and my front teeth had been knocked out. My foster mom bathed me 3 times trying to get the oil off my skin, but my scabs starting coming off and my skin was getting raw. She rubbed ointment on me and hugged me. I growled and showed her my teeth. For the first couple weeks I didn't know what to think of the affection. I couldn't tell if she was being sweet - I just waited for her to hurt me, sure that it was all a trick. Now I can't wait for hugs and kisses! I jump and bark for her attention and try to run up her leg into her arms. I still growl and show my teeth, but I don't mean it, and she kisses my face anyway. When she stops, I nudge her for more love. I may always growl, just so you know that if you try and hurt me I'll fight back - I gotta be a tough girl. But my foster mom loves me and my silly ways, and I love her too. She says her job is to show me that I can trust people, to make me a happy dog and then find somebody that will love me like she does forever and ever. I'm very unsure, but I'm willing to give it a shot, because secretly I do trust my foster mom and her judgement - but don't tell anybody!! And now, that I realize my foster parents are nice, and won't hurt me, I almost never show my teethies at all! I LOVE to snuggle and get my belly rubbed. I love cuddling, and am the BEST lap dog! My foster mom says Im such a sweetie..... ~~~~~~~ "Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring--it was peace." - Milan Kundera

***Adoption fee lower to $50 to help this poor boy find a permant forever home. He has been with the rescue for almost a year now and is feeling very unwanted :( Please consider giving him a home he can call his own. *** I was in a shelter on my last day of life when one of the nice shelter workers called someone to rescue me. I am with my new foster mommy now! I am 8 years old and a little overweight. I whine to let you know I need to go outside. I love to be outside and run around the yard. Maybe you can be the one to help me with my weight by taking me on walks. Please consider making me a part of your family.

Hi everyone my name is Annie. I came from a puppy mill and I sort of like this human thing. I keep watching to see what's going on. I have a real tiny face but am a little overweight. You would be too if you had puppies all the time. I am so glad I don't have to do that any more. I get to sleep and stay cool in the house. I do not understand that going outside to go potty but I'm smart and I will learn. I just want to be happy and have someone love me like I loved all my puppies. I need a new mommy or daddy to take care of me.

Hi my name is Mocha and I am as sweet as chocolate. I am a pretty 8-yr. old female who would just love to be your forever companion. I am quiet, well-mannered, completely housebroken and would just love to sit on your lap so you can love on me and I can give you the love you need. I do have one medical issue--my eyes do not naturally produce tears so I will need you to give me eyedrops daily. In exchange for this, I will give you all the love and companionship you could ever hope for. Please fill out an application for me today so we can become forever friends!!!!

Cookies-N-Milk (Cookie) is a docile little man but needs to be the dominant male. He barks because he is the 150 lb. guard dog in the house. He is not aggressive but will let you know if someone is coming in the house or around the house. He has yet to be neutered but is fully vaccinated. He is not housebroken but is good with cats, other dogs and children. Cookie is not a lap dog or snuggler. He is very independent and does not like to share food with other dogs, you will need to feed him alone. I'm thinking that once he finds his furparents he will soften right up and become the little lover boy that I think he is.

Hi, My name is Teddy Bear. I was found wondering around the streets along. I was tired, hungry and afraid. I am in a foster home now and enjoying the good life. I get to eat, sleep and play. I take awhile to warm up to new people but I'm worth the effort. I love to spend as much time as possible in your lap or sleeping beside you in bed. Would you like to take me home and I could be your Teddy Bear? ~~~~~~~~~~ A LOAN FROM GOD God promised at the birth of time, a special friend to give, his time on earth is short, he said, so love him while he lives. It may be six or seven years, or twelve or then sixteen, but will you, till I call him back, take care of him for me? A wagging tail and cold wet nose, and silken velvet ears, a heart as big as all outdoors, to love you through the years. His puppy ways will gladden you, and antics bring a smile, as guardian or friend he will, be loyal all the while. He'll bring his charms to grace your life, and though his stay be brief, when he's gone the memories, are solace for your grief. I cannot promise he will stay, since all from earth return, but lessons only a dog can teach, I want you each to learn. Whatever love you give to him, returns in triple measure, follow his lead and gain a life, brim full of simple pleasure. Enjoy each day as it comes, allow your heart to guide, be loyal and steadfast in love, as the dog there by your side. Now will you give him all your love, nor think the labor vain, nor hate me when I come to call, to take him back again? I fancy each of us would say, "Dear Lord, thy will be done, for all the joy this day shall bring, the risk of grief we'll run." "We'll shelter him with tenderness, we'll love him while we may, and for the happiness we've known, forever grateful stay." "But shall the angels call for him, much sooner than we've planned, we'll brave the bitter grief that comes, and try to understand." Author Unknown

My name is Rosie and I am an eight pound, six year old female. I had a bad start in life. I came from a puppymill and was never held or even let inside of a house. I spent my whole life in a crate in a bard. I am very loving and affectionate. I need a home with lots of patience and understanding. I am learning new things here at my foster home. I enjoy sitting on my foster mom's lap and just being cuddled. As I make more progress, my foster mom will keep you updated. If you have room in your home for a little girl like me, please complete an application.

I am a black Chihuahua Mix who loves car rides and the attention of my owner. my foster mom says I have my own little personality. I have been with my foster mom for a long time, but she says that I am just a doll. when you meet me I take a while to warm up to you, but once I do look out . LOL I don't like to have little children around, older children ok over 14 please. I weigh about 12 lbs. My foster mom says i am a handsome man If you would like a handsome boy to share your chair with you, then pick me---I'll be waiting!

Hello, my name is buddy. I'm a healthy bouncing baby 1 year old boy!! I love to run and play with all the other Chihuahuas here and I'm very good with the children around the house. My foster mom lets me go outside to do my "business" and I'm very good about not leaving messes inside. I'm searching for a good forever home that will love and care for me. Is your home the one?

Poor Lydia has come into rescue after being removed from horrible conditions. Having lived most of her life in a home with many, many other animals and without proper care, she is very unsure of how to act. Her foster mom is working with her daily to help her understand what it means to be a pet and be loved. It will take time before Lydia will learn to trust anyone.

My foster mom has started calling me "Mr. Bogart" because of the way I stick out my chest and cock my head to the side. I am improving a lot in the having a home thing. I am a Big Boy and boy do I know it. I still run from you till I get to know you. I have started coming out of my crate a lot more. If you take me outside, I will go to the potty. If I am in my crate I will stand up on the side of the door and bark if I have to go out. I have this cute little quirk where, when I finish going potty, I stick my legs out of the back of my body one at a time. Hey, a big boy like me needs to stretch. I am still a little skittish (but I never bite!!) when you pick me up but have come a long way according to my foster mom. I would be better off with someone who lives alone or with a quiet couple that can spend the one on one time I need so I can trust humans more than I have already. No children, please, as little hands make me nervous. Give me a home and I will show you just how big I can be.

Cissy is 14 years old, not a young dog. She is adorable though she has cataracts and I think that since she doesn't see well, sometimes when she catches sudden movements she tends to bark. She doesn't have any major medical issues either. She will definitely need to be adopted by someone with no small children. She does tend to be a one person dog, and likes to be near her foster mom a lot, though not necessarily on her lap, simply up against her. Cissy would be best with few or no other dogs. She is kind of past the rambunctious stage.

My name is Cocoa and I am an 8yr old chi-doxie mix. I had a good life with my previous owner until he was taken away from me by the military. Yes he had to go off without me and I was very sad. He thought the best thing for me was a shelter since no family members were able to care for me. I was to be euthenized and a very nice lady came to my rescue. I have a few minor health probelms you see. My right front paw is deformed and I have a heart murmer. The vet here says I still have a few good years left. I am a very loving little guy who is very active. I can keep up with all the young ones here. I Love car reides and just snuggling in your lap. If you have a big heart and would like to help give me a great forever home for the time that I have left? Please fill out an app. I am fostered in Crown Point,In.
