Chihuahua Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Watson 🐾

10 pounds of loyalty, fluff, and devotion — and he always has a good hair day.

Watson is a 3-year-old long-haired Chihuahua who lives to love his person. He is the definition of a little shadow — if you sit down, he’s there. If you move rooms, he’s right behind you. If you’re looking for a ride-or-die best friend in a tiny, fluffy package… this is your guy.

And let’s talk about that coat. Watson has the most glorious hair — especially under his chin. It’s full, fluffy, and absolutely fabulous. Imagine it blowing dramatically in the wind like he’s in a slow-motion movie scene. He does not wake up with bedhead. He wakes up camera-ready.

Watson is not big on toys or roughhousing. He’s much more interested in being near his human than chasing a ball. He coexists nicely with other dogs in the home, but he doesn’t need a canine playmate to be happy. He hasn’t been officially cat-tested, but based on his calm and easygoing personality, we believe he would likely do just fine.

The good news? He already has his basics down.
✔️ Crate trained
✔️ Potty trained
✔️ Leash training in progress — and doing great!

Watson would thrive in a calm home where he can be someone’s special little buddy and soak up plenty of one-on-one attention. He bonds deeply, so his ideal family understands that when you adopt Watson, you’re getting a devoted companion who will love you with his whole entire heart.

If your idea of perfect is a loyal lap dog with flowing chin fluff and a heart of gold, Watson is ready to meet you. 🐶❤️

Please note:
The dog you’re applying for may already have a meet-and-greet scheduled, be on a trial with another family, or have been offered to another rescue within our network. If that happens, don’t worry—we’re always happy to help you find another great match! Our goal is to make sure every pup ends up in the best home for their needs (and yours too!)
