Zee

Hi… my name is Zee.

Adopted June 30, 2015

You’ve heard about how cats have nine lives — we’ll this little boy has several too, and I have already used up one of them! Two years ago, I (very unwisely!) chewed on a wire in the house and if my dad hadn’t been home to resuscitate me, I’d have been a goner! Well, I’m happy to report that I’m fine now except for some residual scarring around my mouth, but that doesn’t stop me from playing with my toys and engaging in the odd game of tug-of-war now and then! When my dad moved in with his girlfriend and her small dog and two cats, they discovered that I’m definitely not a “cat person,” so a home where it’s just you and me would suit me to a “T.”

Frank

Hi… my name is Frank.

Adopted June 11, 2015

When they designed a small dog, they had me in mind! I only weigh 2½ pounds (most kittens that weigh more than that!), so you can imagine the peril I was in when I was found running in the street by Wal-Mart! Fortunately a lady scooped me up and took me home hoping she could find my owner, but after eight days, that didn’t happen. She did get a chance to get to know me though, and said that I’m a great guy who likes to get on furniture (‘cause that where you are!), but will mind and get down if you really insist. She discovered that I’m crate trained and walk well on a leash, so I’m sure to steal your heart if given the teeniest chance.

Candy Cane

Hi… my name is Candy Cane.

One wonders why people move to places that don’t allow their much-loved pets! Okay, I guess there are always those old “extenuating circumstances,” but that still leaves us loyal companions wondering if we did something wrong! In my case, I’d lived with my family (and a cat that scared the very devil out of me!) for four of my eight years, and they said I was a loving lap dog who wants nothing more in life than your love and attention. I’m an adorable tan and white Chihuahua girl who knows lots of commands (no, sit, stay, come, and “go bye bye” — love those car rides!), can use a doggie door, and, if I do say so myself, am perfect in every way! So why not let me be perfect for YOU?

Cha Cha

Hi… my name is Cha Cha.

Adopted May 15, 2015

After my dad died, my housemates all found homes immediately, but for some reason, I got overlooked in the “rehoming” department. I’ve been with a foster mom for a while, and she says I’m a real “princess” who isn’t content with just your lap or sofa, but seek out cushy pillows and cushions to lounge on. She said I follow her around the house, never stop wagging my tail, am a real “stitch,” and if she didn’t want to be a “failed foster,” would keep me in a minute. I’m a 7-year-old Chihuahua lady with a charmingly masked face who’ll win your heart in a flash! I may seem a bit shy at TALGV, but get me in a home, and, Katie bar the door, I’m a love machine!

Coffee

Hi… my name is Coffee.

Adopted April 12, 2015.

Even though I never lived with them, I’m great with other dogs, cats, and even kids (the neighbors came to visit a lot), so there isn’t anywhere I’d not fit in! My dad adopted me when I was just a baby and has doted on me ever since. Sadly, his health recently began to deteriorate, and he felt he could no longer give me the attention I deserved, so he decided it was time for someone else to “feel the love.” I’m a 4½ year-old coffee-colored Chihuahua girl who has impeccable house manners, does a mean “sit,” and just lives to spend time with my person. I know you’ve got a lot of size choices in canine companions here, but at 9½ pounds, you’d get a lot of “bang for your buck” with me!

Tilly

Hi… my name is Tilly.

Adopted May 4, 2015

If you remember the classic National Geographic cover that featured a family of meerkats standing on a hill, then you’ll know why I look familiar! I have the same dark-ringed eyes and color coat — and am just as endearing as they were in the picture! I’m a 6½ year-old Chihuahua lady who lost her people when they had to move into a new assisted living home. I lived with them almost all my life, and they said that I enjoy smaller dogs, know a few commands (including “off,” but that wasn’t my favorite!), love to jump (I guess I need a fairly high fence, just in case), was protective of my people and home, and loved squeaky toys. Combine that with my sweet personality, and you have the makings of a new best friend!
