Adopt a Chihuahua in Connecticut

Chihuahuas are bold, confident, and fiercely loyal little dogs. They're one of the most common small breeds in rescue, sometimes surrendered due to behavioral issues that stem from lack of training. A rescued Chihuahua can be an incredibly devoted companion.

Connecticut's rescue dog community runs largely on transport from Southern shelters, with most local shelters relatively low-volume. Networks in Hartford, New Haven, and Stamford bring in dogs that would otherwise be euthanized elsewhere. A rescued Connecticut dog has often traveled a long way to find a home.
