My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Maxx is maximum cute, maximum fun, maximum great company! This little fella is ready to start living for real! He came from a breeder who no longer needed him. He's not had much vetting so we're starting from the beginning with Maxx. He'll get vaccines, microchip and parasite screening as well as a neuter and a dental. He is in a foster home now and can be a bit of a pest with the other small male dog. He,s trying to assert dominance, but he's definitely not a mean dog. He just wants his very own person's lap to sit on. He will follow you and be so happy just being with you wherever you go or don't go. He will be your best friend and a wonderful companion dog!

Maxx is a very sweet and snuggly little guy. He weighs about 6#. He will have grooming needs due to his breed and coat. Maxx did not come to us housebroken so his foster family is working on that. He's starting to get the hang of it.03


If you think you can open your heart and home to Maxx, please apply. You won't find a cuter more grateful little fur-buddy.

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

https://www.chihuahuarescuein.org/application The inquiry isn't the same as an application. A complete application is needed to meet a pet.

2.

Meet the Pet

Once the completed application is recieved and approved, the meeting is set up. You will be contacted by the foster for the pet.

3.

Home Check

A home check is done either in person or remotely to assess the practicality of the home and environment for the pet you are interested in.

4.

Pay Fee

The adoption fees for the pets range from $375 and up depending on the pet. We have 2 programs that offer a discount, for seniors & veterans

Additional adoption info

**If you are unable to pay the adoption fee ($375 and up), we are unable to place a dog in your care. Being unable to meet the financial obligations of pet care (recurrent or emergent) is one of many reasons why so many of these pets end up in rescue. It's not lack of love.**
We require an adoption application, and then we will check references. We also check with vets. If the person is not LOCAL then we will partner with a local animal control to complete a home visit.
There are adoption fees associated with the costs of veterinary care of the pet. We require an adoption contract to be signed to finalize the adoption process and we have an agreement that all our pets are to be Chihuahua Rescue Indiana Inc. pets for LIFE. In other words, in the event that they can not stay in their adoptive home, they are not to be surrendered to another individual or rescue.

We hold adoption events at local Petsmarts, Specks, various other local venues mentioned on our website and social media. The dates are fluid and they do coincide with the nationally advertised adoption events at the locales.

More about this rescue

Chihuahua Rescue Indiana Inc. is a non profit, all volunteer rescue working with Chihuahuas and Chihuahua mixes. The pets are housed in individual volunteer foster homes, not kennels or shelters until they are adopted permanently. We get to know our animals and therefore can tell the potential adopter what the traits of the animal are and what home would be the best for the pet. We are dedicated to the adoption, education, rescue and transportation of the Chihuahua breed. We believe that every Chihuahua deserves a loving home.
