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

Story
Meet Dakota! She came to us when her owner passed away and the family could not keep her. She is a 4-year-old, spayed Chihuahua mix that weighs 16lbs. Dakota does well with cats (especially kittens) and dogs; we have not tested her with children. This is what her foster has to say about her: Dakota is the best cuddler. She has been through a lot in her short life and gets nervous when things change. She is playful, she likes playing with dogs but kittens are her favorite! She does not like being crated; she does fine out alone. Whoever adopts her will have a great new little family member! Remember, adopting a dog means committing to them for life. You will also need to give her time to adjust to her new home and its expectations. If you're interested in adopting Dakota, please don't call. Instead, complete an online application on 4 Paws Animal Rescue's website at www.4pawz.org. We carefully review the care history of past and current pets. Our goal is to find the very best homes for all our dogs and cats, so we reserve the right to approve or deny applications based on what's best for the pets. #dogsareworthit #adoptdontshop #chimix #rescueisthebestbreed #lovedogs #dogs #dogsareacommittment

Story
Meet Chico! Chico is a 6-7 year old little guy who was surrendered to us when his owner could no longer care for him. Chico is a reserved fellow until he decides that he trusts you. He is fairly independent. He wouldn't do well with young children. He is happy sleeping in his favorite bed just knowing you are around. Chico does well with other dogs and cats. Chico does not care for leash walking but can be trained. He tolerates car rides OK. He is doing well with re-housebreaking as long as he’s let out every five hours or so. Chico prefers soft food. He enjoys Pepperoni treats! Chico had a bad habit in his previous home of barking and running after people who are leaving. He has not done this in his foster home. Chico is not crate trained as he behaves well in the home. He has ridden in a crate in the car and goes fine. Chico loves to sleep deep under the bed covers. He will sleep out on the sofa as well. Chico is a quiet fellow and will make an excellent chill companion! Chico is neutered, HW negative, vaccinated and micro-chipped. If you are interested in meeting him our application can be found at www.homesfurhounds.org. He is located in Williamsburg, Va.

Story
Meet Peanut Peanut is an older fellow (11 years) but pretty spry and full of life! He is a Velcro dog that loves to be with his person, which is pretty much anyone who gives him attention. He is friendly towards strangers. Peanut needs to be fed soft food ( doing well in Science diet sensitive skin and stomach) and he loves small bits of Pupperoni for a treat. He is a homebody who would prefer to walk around in a fenced yard but will walk on leash if needed. He is doing well with re-housebreaking as long as he’s let out every 5 hours or so. Peanut enjoys car rides too! He will sleep in bed with you or out on the sofa. He has not been crate trained as he does fine when free. Peanut does well with cats and other dogs as long as they respect his space. His only negative trait is fear of thunderstorms. He will run off if scared. He trembles and shakes until the storms pass. Overall Peanut will make a great companion! He is smart and engaged. Peanut is vaccinated, HW negative, neutered and micro-chipped. If you are interested in meeting Peanut our application can be found at www.homesfurhounds.org. He is located in Williamsburg, Va.

Story
We would love to find a home for Dolly and Tatum together-two tiny Chihuahuas, who are eagerly awaiting their forever homes. When the shelter contacted us about three Chihuahua's (the third was Lyra Jade who has been adopted), they told us they were the FRIENDLIEST little Chihuahua's they had ever seen. We agree! Despite being thin, they now receive regular nourishment and are learning to walk on a leash. They have been well-behaved around older children and other dogs, but their exposure to cats is pending. They are approximately 3 years old. Tatum is fully vaccinated, neutered, and heartworm-positive; he has started the medication to help him. He was also shot with a bb pellet, and we had it removed. How could anyone hurt such a precious boy? They had fleas everywhere, we have treated them for that as well. Dolly has been spayed and is microchipped. She’s also fully vaccinated and heartworm negative. They have been through a lot for such a young age, but they still love to snuggle! Because they have been through so much and have leaned on each other, even though we know they would do OK in a home without each other, we really want them to be able to stay together. We are hoping the right person or family will see this posting and want to give the two of them a home. If you are interested in this duo please apply! They have a tremendous amount of love to give and they are so adorable. They are located in Williamsburg. Applications are found at www.homesfurhounds.org.
