On March 23rd, we got a call that a home that was about to be condemned, needed their animals removed. There were 43 Chihuahuas and one elderly sick cat. Critter Cavalry Rescue moved what we call rescue heaven and earth and 3 dear “overloaded” foster homes opened up to 13 of them on a temporary basis. Within 6 hours we had taken our share of those neglected and unaltered Chihuahuas. Some were legally blind, some partially blind and a little deaf, one was pregnant and others were just scared because they have never been out of the inside of their dirty home. We won’t discuss the conditions they lived in. Your imagination cannot even go deep enough to truly grasp it. We need fosters for little ones like these pictured. Our fosters have bathed and vaccinated and dewormed and defleaed them. All the hard stuff has been done and we are booking surgery appts. now to get dentals, bloodwork, spay and neuters and fecals done. Exams are happening and we are also awaiting the birth of some Chihuahua pups and hoping that momma has an easy delivery. Can you help!? Each of these chihuahuas are super sweet but scared. They need to either go with a companion Chihuahua or have other small dogs in the foster home that can offer some canine companionship. They have all loved going outside in the grass and feeling the coolness of God’s earth on their bellies. They are not overly barky and really aren’t biting as some Chis can do. We are looking at ages of 2 to 12 years old most probably. One little Chocolate girl (Bea), in the back of this crate picture, is totally blind and only 6 pounds. She was probably born this way because she seems confident but also dependent on another Chi to be her buddy to hang out with. She would need a companion for sure. If you can help foster or even desire an adoption form, please ask. [email protected] Some are ready now for adoption and most all of them need fosters now. We will be giving bloodwork, dentals and full spay and neuter surgeries to all that need the various medical help. We can provide you with food if needed and we will be totally responsible for all medical expenses. PLEASE NOTE: Our dogs are transported from Tennessee to meeting places in the states where we have posted. Further information about us is given on our Adopt-A-Pet site.
