Claire - Chiweenie Dog for Adoption in Douglas, Georgia

Two years ago, we introduced you to a tiny little dog named Claire.

She had been rescued from a hoarding situation where she had spent much of her life confined to a small cage. When she came to us, she even had two birdshot pellets embedded beneath her skin.

And yet somehow... Claire still loved people.

She was adopted in 2024 by a wonderful couple who absolutely adored her, and for the next two years, Claire lived the life every rescue dog deserves. She had a home. She had laps to sleep in. She had people who loved her.

She was HOME.

Then life changed.

Her family welcomed a baby, and after a lot of trying, adjusting, and some very difficult decisions, they came to the heartbreaking realization that their home was no longer the right fit for Claire.

So at 7 years old, Claire has found herself starting over.

And y’all... she is STILL the same precious little soul we fell in love with years ago.

Claire is only 14 pounds and is the definition of a lap baby. She absolutely worships her people. If her foster mom sits down, Claire has found her spot. If her foster dad gets up, there’s a good chance a tiny 14-pound shadow isn’t far behind.

She is:

House trained
Loving and affectionate
A professional lap warmer
Your own personal little shadow
Past the puppy nonsense
Up-to-date on vetting
Spayed
Heartworm negative
Microchipped

At seven years old, Claire isn’t asking for a marathon partner or someone to entertain her all day.

Give her a comfy bed, a warm lap, some soft blankets, and people she can absolutely adore, and Claire will consider herself the richest little dog in the world.

It breaks our hearts to see her returned after watching her get her happily-ever-after for two amazing years. But Claire doesn’t need us to feel sorry for her. She just needs us to help her find her next forever.

ADOPTION FEE $100
