    Welcome to AZ 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

 


AT THIS TIME, ALL OF OUR FOSTER HOMES ARE FULL AND WE ARE UNABLE TO ACCEPT ANY NEW DOGS INTO OUR RESCUE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING.

TUSCON 800 FIVE YEAR ANNIVERSARY

March 2013 makes it five years since the Tuscon 800. Those still in the rescue today remember the day that we took in over 100 dogs from a horrible hoarding situation in Tuscon. They remember seeing the dog's sad little faces and shedding many tears.

Many of the dogs found forever homes and some of the dogs are still in our rescue today and probably always will be but they will always be cared for by us.

One of our adopters of an 800 Tuscon dog has created a FB page for others to share their memories and post pictures of their Tuscon 800 dog. Click Here

That was a day that many will never forget and we are still awed by the overwhelming generosity of the members of our Valley community, those outside our community, and even those outside of our State. The donations of money, supplies, dog food, dog beds, potty pads and everything 'dog' helped enable us to save so many little dogs.

So then and now we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for participating in this most worthy cause.
