CHIHUAHUA RESCUE AND TRANSPORT (CRT)

 

 
Before   After

  This is Squeakachu, a 1 1/2 pound Chihuahua puppy with severe elbow luxation.  His front legs are deformed and twisted, but CRT will make sure he gets the help he needs!  Would you like to help little Squeakachu?  Click HERE for more information.

Our purpose is to extend public education and awareness regarding abuse and neglect.  In 2007, CRT placed several hundred Chihuahuas and Chihuahua mixes in approved homes.  CRT requires an application, vet check, reference check and home visit for each adopter.  

CRT does not warehouse dogs in a shelter.  As in most rescue groups, our dogs are cared for in healthy, safe, loving foster home environments.  CRT foster parents work very hard to be sure that their foster dog feels safe and loved while working on housetraining, crate training, socialization, etc.  All our dogs are spayed/neutered, fully vaccinated, heartworm tested, fecal tested, microchipped, on heartworm preventative and have all other veterinary needs taken care of (such as heartworm treatment, dentals, luxating patellas, etc.)  CRT is known, and has always been known, for taking the injured, infirm and elderly Chihuahuas and Chihuahua mixes.  Please consider the adoption of one of these dogs as well.  Seniors and special needs dogs make great pets too!  

For more information about our adoption process, please go to our adoption process page.   To view our available dogs, go to "Dogs Available For Adoption" or use the menu to the left.  For more history on CRT, please visit here.
 
Please browse our site to see Chihuahuas currently up for adoption and also lots of neat Chihuahua merchandise!

 		 We were awarded the "Dog Rescue Award" for 2007 by Just Dog Breeds. To win the award, an organization must be a rescuer of an AKC registered breed, ensure the dogs are spayed or neutered before placement, and place the dogs with compatible owners. A big thanks to JDB!
