Chihuahua and Pug Dogs Available for Adoption

I’m Biscuit, a smiley, happy, goofy girl! Though I may be on the older side, I am spry on walks and love to explore. I have endless love to give, and would love nothing more than to cuddle with you (even when I snore!). I am a 10-year-old chihuahua mix, possibly mixed with pug.

Biscuit is currently being fostered in Colorado.

Rocky Mountain Dachshund Rescue (RMDR) has foster families in Colorado, Nevada, Utah, Montana, and Wyoming. Please check the dog’s location before your apply to adopt them. You will need to pick them up. RMDR DOES NOT TRANSPORT THE DOG TO YOU or transport them across state lines.

The Colorado Department of Agriculture requires that all dogs entering PACFA-licensed facilities have a Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI) issued by an accredited veterinarian within 30 days of entry. Dogs over three months of age must also have proof of a current rabies vaccination, including the vaccination date, manufacturer, and serial number listed on the CVI. Puppies must receive parvovirus and distemper vaccinations at least 14 days before entry.

These PACFA requirements may affect the adoption fee. For questions, please email us at contact@rmdr.org.

At RMDR, adoptions are not first-come, first-served—we carefully place each dog in the home that best fits their needs. Applications are usually reviewed within 48 hours. Every RMDR dog is spayed/neutered, microchipped, and current on vaccinations.

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 pug is a small yet sturdy breed known for its charming personality and distinctive appearance. With a wrinkled face, curled tail, and expressive eyes, pugs are beloved for their affectionate nature and playful demeanor.

Pugs are known to be excellent companions, suitable for owners of all ages due to their adaptable and social temperament.
