Chihuahua Dogs Available for Adoption

Rishi is a 1(ish) year old Chihuahua (maybe mix?) weighing about 6lbs. Rishi was surrendered to one of our rescue partners in Texas with two other dogs. His family was moving and decided they couldn't be bothered to take their four legged family members with them - so left them behind. Of course we couldn't say no to Rishi and the. other little dogs so we brought them to CO where they have been able to settle into our foster program and are now ready to find their forever families.

Rishi is the definition of a love bug. He is a little nervous at first but absolutely attaches to his person very quickly. He loves to sleep on his foster dads chest and snuggle up as much as possible. He has become his fosters little shadow, always close by, even napping on his feet during the work days. Rishi gets along great with other dogs big and small and is a great little dog. He will be the happiest little man as long as his forever human has as much love to give as he does.
