Chihuahua and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Bend, Oregon

Meet Pinky!

Pinky is one of 40 incredibly lucky pups that arrived in our program from our shelter partner in California's Central Valley. We're so excited to welcome this sweet group to the Pacific Northwest as they begin their next chapter filled with safety, comfort, and love. Most of the dogs in this new group are Chihuahuas, Chihuahua mixes, and other small-breed cuties that were saved from an unfortunate hoarding situation.

Will you be this pup's lucky new hero?

The Chihuahua is a small breed famous for its confidence, loyalty, and big personality, despite its tiny size. Originating from Mexico, these dogs are known for their large, expressive eyes and alert, curious nature. Chihuahuas make excellent companions, forming strong bonds with their owners and displaying a protective nature. They come in a variety of coat colors and patterns, with both long and short coats, making them a diverse and adorable addition to any family.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
