Chihuahua Dogs Available for Adoption in New Orleans, Louisiana

Meet Jack
9 years old Chihuahua

Jack is a charming little senior with a big heart and a lifetime of love to give. Like his buddy Hershey, Jack was surrendered when his owner fell on difficult financial times. He has been well cared for and deeply loved, and now he's hoping to find a soft place to land.

Jack is house trained and crate trained, does well with other dogs, and enjoys the comfort of being near his people. He's affectionate, calm, and happiest when he's included in your day.

He is up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative, and will be neutered soon.

Jack and Hershey have been companions, and while it would be wonderful for them to stay together, they can also thrive in separate homes where they'll continue to be loved and cared for.

If you're looking for a loyal little sidekick with a gentle soul, Jack is ready to meet you.

If you are interested in meeting and/or adopting, the first step is to complete an application and read all of our FAQs:

https://www.takepawsrescue.org/adopt

Please note: Information to determine if you might be a match for one of our animals can only be found on our application.
*An inquiry, questions or introduction through Petfinder is NOT an application*
All known details about our animals are posted on their profile and updated daily. Other info will be discussed in detail with the foster during the application review process. Due to the high volume of introductions/questions received we ask you to submit an application (that application can be used for any dog with Take Paws Rescue).

The adoption fee for adult dogs covers age appropriate vaccinations, microchip, spay/neuter if not yet performed, heartworm test & appropriate heartworm treatment by the rescue's vet. All dogs in our care are also kept up-to-date on HW/Flea Prevention.
For more on this, or for additional information, including the adoption process and our adoption fee scale for all our adoptable pets (including an explanation about Benefactor Dogs), please see our FAQs page:

Any breed labels used by Take Paws Rescue, its employees/volunteers, or on vet records provided cannot be guaranteed. Breed labels are given based on information obtained during intake and/or best guesses based on appearance and/or temperament of the dogs and Take Paws Rescue gives no assurance to the accuracy of these labels. Labels are necessary for postings to many animal networking sites, such as our website, Chewy, Pet Finder, and others. These are in no way a guarantee. Additionally, exact age and potential size cannot be guaranteed.

***Take Paws Rescue saves dogs from high-kill shelters across the South, owner surrenders, and discarded dogs with uncertain futures. All of our animals live in foster homes where they are socialized, and well cared for. An application will be required to make sure it's the perfect match!

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 mission of Take Paws Rescue is to meet the moral obligation to protect and save the lives of pets...
