Chi Town Rescue

We are a Non Profit 501C 3 Rescue saving dogs from the Euthanasia list! "Chi Town" is short for "Chihuahua Town," which is our nick-name. Chi Town Rescue saves small dogs who require a little extra TLC. Many of these dogs are Chihuahuas or Chi mixes, hence our name! These dogs may not be doing well for a variety of reasons- fear, fear aggression, anxiety, or a medical needs to name a few. Dogs that have no other outlet make up most of our residents. After our dogs are medically cleared and/or their behaviors have improved and we’ve learned how to manage the behaviors, we make them available for adoption. Our dogs leave Chi Town Rescue as well adjusted as possible and fully vetted.

Meet BlackJack

**This is a courtesy listing for Frosted Faces, Vintage Paws Rescue** Do you like to gamble? We don't either. We much prefer to bet on a sure thing- like our Blackjack, here! Blackjack is an approximately four-and-a-half-month-old Jack Russell Terrier mix puppy, with an estimated birthday of June 30, 2024. Blackjack, along with two of his friends (possibly litter-mates) came to the rescue after they were contacted about some unwanted puppies. Blackjack and his pals were so cute, how could anyone say no to helping them?! BlackJack weighs approximately eight pounds and is full of fun and energy. He's everything a puppy ought to be, full of love and mischief! Blackjack loves to zoom around the yard with his pals, playing with toys and socializing with anyone that wants to pet him. He isn't shy in the least! Blackjack is still young, so he is hoping for a patient family willing to teach him all the things he needs to be the best adult-doggy he can be; things like leash-training, potty-training, and maybe even some basic commands! Are YOU up for all the fun and responsibility that comes with adopting a puppy? Email us at [email protected] for more info/meet and greet appointment! BlackJack's adoption fee is $400 and includes neuter surgery, vaccinations up to date, and microchip.
