Chihuahua Dogs Available for Adoption in Portland, Oregon

What my friends at OHS say about me:

I may do best with an owner who has had experience owning or caring for shy and fearful dogs.

Give me a little time to adjust and I will show you I am the biggest lovebug.

I may be little but I have infinite love to give you!

I should have been a basketball player I can jump so high, but instead I'm just looking for a nice family to call my home.

Will my performance of spins, hops, and woofs convince you to pick me? I hope so!

I can be overwhelmed by overhandling, restraint or touch. I may exhibit my discomfort in a variety of ways and will need to go to a dog savvy home.

Shy and Nervous: I can be worried about new people, new surroundings and touch. I prefer to take things at my own pace and will need to live in a calm environment.

High Energy: I can become easily frustrated if my physical and mental exercise needs are not met. I will need positive outlets and a calm environment to help me flourish.

Resource Guarding: I have a history of guarding my people, food, toys and/or bedding from other animals or people.

I will need to meet any canine companions prior to getting adopted.

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.
