Arizona Chihuahua Rescue

AZ Chihuahua Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, all volunteer organization. Our network consists of experienced rescue people who were previously doing rescue independently and realize the benefits of joining together and combining resources. We believe there is a home for every dog we foster. Some just take a little longer to find. Most dogs spend at least a short time in foster care so we can evaluate their behaviors in a home setting. We can give potential adopters information on how the dog may interact with cats, children, men, women, other dogs, and so on. These are vital components to a good match. We also try to improve potty training skills if they are not already house trained. Our foster homes provide good nutrition and an understanding lap to prepare our dogs for life in a world where fear and starvation are non-existent. Our Purpose • To rescue, rehabilitate and place chihuahuas into stable, loving homes • To educate the public about the responsibilities of chihuahua ownership in an attempt to alleviate the problem of unwanted pets • To build public awareness about the human-animal bond and its benefits to society
