Dogs Needing Adoption
Thank you for your patience if you’ve already submitted an application. We truly appreciate your interest, and we want to assure you that we are working diligently to review each submission and respond as quickly as possible.
We currently have several wonderful Chihuahuas in our care, each one eagerly waiting for the chance to find their forever home. If you’re unable to adopt right now, there are still ways you can make a significant impact. Consider becoming a foster parent or assisting with transport. Both options play a crucial role in helping these dogs get the care and attention they need while they wait for their new families. Your support, in any form, can make a world of difference in their lives.
How to Apply
If you’re interested in adopting, fostering, or supporting in another way, please feel free to email our admin team at thechihuahuarescueukltd@hotmail.com or submit your application through our website. After receiving your application, we’ll schedule a conversation with you to ensure the best fit for both you and the dog. A home check will also be arranged to ensure a safe and welcoming environment.
Important Adoption Guidelines
- Work Schedule: We do not rehome our dogs to individuals who work full-time, as Chihuahuas are very social animals that thrive on companionship and need regular attention. Ideally, someone will be at home for most of the day to provide the necessary care and interaction.
- Children: In line with our commitment to the well-being and safety of both the dogs and the children, we do not rehome our dogs to families with children under the age of 10. Chihuahuas are often more comfortable in quieter, calmer environments and we want to ensure they are in the best possible situation.
- Crating: We believe Chihuahuas should be an integral part of the family, enjoying free time and human interaction. We do not support crating, except when necessary for travel or during medical recovery. We recommend using baby gates to manage your Chihuahua’s environment as a more humane and gentle alternative.
- Lifestyle Fit: It’s important to ensure that the adoption fits with your lifestyle. Chihuahuas are small, but they still require daily walks, regular playtime, and plenty of affection. They thrive in homes where they can feel part of the family and receive the attention they deserve.
Adopt, Don’t Shop!
Adopting a rescue dog means you are giving a deserving animal a second chance at a happy, loving life. Every day, Chihuahuas just like the ones in our care wait for their forever homes. Please consider adoption before purchasing from breeders. By adopting, you’re not only providing a dog with a home, but also making a positive impact on the lives of animals in need.
Thank you again for your interest and for considering a rescue dog. Your kindness and support help us continue our work and change the lives of these precious Chihuahuas.
