Story
Hi, I’m Rosalee, a vibrant Chi mix with a unique coat of red, black, white, and even some cool-looking blonde patches. I’m a spry little lady at just 1 year old and a light 17lbs. I’m spayed, up to date on all my vaccinations, and heartworm negative. I’m a social butterfly who gets along wonderfully with other dogs and children. I have spina bifida, which means I can’t be potty trained, but that doesn’t stop me from running and jumping joyfully. I’ve also had surgery for a luxating patella and have recovered beautifully, completing all my physical therapy like a champ. I’m looking for a family that will embrace my energetic spirit and my special needs with open arms. If you’re looking for a companion who’s full of life and love, I might just be the perfect addition to your home. Let’s make every day together a beautiful adventure! I am being fostered in Hampton, VA but can be transported to nearby areas for a well-fitting and supportive home. You must be 21 or older to apply. Fill out an application today if you think we might be a match!

Story
Jet was 4 1/2 when I brought him home the day before Thanksgiving ‘19. For the first 6 months he was a submissive pee-er every time I came home and he would not play or share lap with his older brother. He learned to trust and gradually allowed me to dress him and trim his nails. Best of all he would allow me to nuzzle him. We eventually added a little dog brother and sister kitten to the fam. If a sibling brushes against him during a nap, he will grumble. We don’t do walks or dog parks which he is absolutely fine with. The stimulation is too much for him. He gets bent when a stranger is in the distance but if they venture closer he becomes a tail-wagging, pet-begging fool. If you have a small ball then you’ve won his total devotion. He’ll tolerate others but would live his best life as an only child. His ASPCA pet insurance policy is paid till mid Apr’25 and can be transferred to his new parent(s). Please be patient with Jet. All he wants is to love and be loved.

Story
Tuck is nearly 5lbs of laughs but he’ll tell you that he’s 50lbs sass. He joined the family when he was 7months old. He has two older brothers. He makes the senior bro act like a puppy again and the middle bro act like a grouchy old man. When a kitten joined the family I was most concerned how Tuck would react ‘cause he can be a real goofball and forget boundaries but they ended up being pals. Perhaps it’s his youth or family dynamic but he’s a very reactive boy and it takes him quite awhile to come around. It took 2 months before he’d approach the dog-sitter. Once he recognizes you as his person he will be totally loyal. He’s the only one that can go off leash (in a controlled environment) and respond to recall. He’s an intuitive pup but also has some anxiety. Mostly around food. He completely submits and lets his brothers eat his portion if I don’t keep an eye open. And he’s so small. He needs those calories for his crazy fast zoomies. Please give him time. His love is amazing!!

Story
Meet Pablo, the sweetest chihuahua we’ve ever met with 0 of the sass! He is sweet, snuggly, HOUSE TRAINED, and is not a barker! He’s content snuggling on the couch or laying under blankets when you aren’t home, and when you are home he wants to be right by your side. Pablo would be a great companion for anyone who just wants a nice, easy going, teeny tiny little houseguest. Pablo has been neutered for many years, and last fall had a dental to remove all his diseases teeth (read: no future dentals 🙏🏻). He is UTD on vaccines, Heartworm tested, and microchipped. He will come with 6 months of Heartworm prevention and 30 days of pet insurance for his new family.

Story
Please do not submit an app or inquiry before reading this bio in its entirety. We reply to ALL emails within 72 hours. If you have not received a response, please check you spam/junk folder. THIS LISTING IS FOR A BONDED PAIR. WE WILL NOT SEPARATE. Josh the chihuahua is estimated to be between 2-3 years old and weighs 3.5lbs, taking the record for the smallest adult dog we’ve ever had come thru the rescue. He’s fragile and he knows it so he is hyper vigilant when it comes to making sure he doesn’t get sat on or stepped on. His tiny apple head is always on a swivel but once he snuggles into a blanket on the couch, and he knows he’s safe, he will relax and nap for hours. He absolutely loves to cuddle. He has very short spurts of playfulness but mostly he is a quiet observer. Josh needs his new forever home to be a very safe space, which unfortunately means no small children, dogs who rough house or humans who have no spacial awareness. Jude the Pekingese is estimated to be between 1-2 years old and about 14lbs. He’s truly just the sweetest, dopiest guy you’ll ever meet. He loves life, as evident during his brief but hysterical zoomy fits, and he simply adores people. It should be noted that Jude is not graceful, he’s not athletic and has zero coordination skills. He’s very likely to bump face first into wall or bounce awkwardly off the couch while trying to chase a ball, but he never lets it get him down. Bless his goofy lil heart. Jude is just precious but he is a brick. He does also have a naughty habit of playfully chasing kitties. He’s not too relentless about it but probably best if he doesn’t go to a home with a sensitive cat. Both boys have a low tolerance for being too hot but Jude specifically cannot tolerate the heat. He’s not your guy if you’re looking for a beach buddy. Symbiotic Inc has a required minimum $360 adoption donation PER DOG upon the completion of the adoption (it is tax deductible!) All dog adoptions include a required one hour virtual session with our partners at Lucky Dogs. This session is at no additional charge www.LuckyDogstraining.net If you think this dog may be a good fit for your family, please visit our website and find out more about our application process. https://symbioticinc.org/adoption-application

Story
Please read the dog's bio (below) in its entirety before asking questions. If interested, please visit our website and read our adoption policies and complete an application:  www.nakedkissesdogrescue.org/adoption.  If you do not find the answer to your question(s) on our website, please feel free to email us at nakedkissesdogrescue@gmail.com. Kaycee is young lady at about 6 months old and roughly 7 lbs .  She is full of life and energy and has eyes that will stare deep into your soul. She is really working on her manners in her foster home and going back to the basics on puppy training. Kaycee is really quick to learn and is super treat motivated.  Kaycee will need a chihuahua savvy owner and someone willing to stick to a routine and continue with her basic training. She will warm up to her new people quickly but strangers take her a minute or two. She is working on her confidence building and will need to be given some patience, support and guidance. She has been around other bigger dogs and a cat in her foster home and gets along well with all. She really wants to play with everyone so a playful cat or dog would be great for her. If there is another dog in the home they will need to be her same size or bigger than she is, as well as confident.  While Kaycee is managing being on a leash, she would really prefer not to go out on walks in the big world yet. Strangers and barking dogs make her nervous outside of her home. She will need a secure fenced yard. In her future home, she will need to  be fed in a crate, away from other pets .   She must continue her basic training and confidence building.  Kaycee is not house broken but she is doing really well on a schedule. She is crated when her foster parents leave during the day and at night and doesn’t have accidents in her crate.  Kaycee is a great little pup and will be a great companion for anyone who is willing to stick to her training and work through her confidence building.  August 4, 2024, 12:22 am
