Jose and Mouse

Jose and Mouse
Jose and Mouse are a precious pair looking for a forever home together. Jose is a 14-year-old Jack Russell, and Mouse is a 4-month-old Chichuahua. They were dropped off at Chicago Care and Animal Control together and were on the euthanasia list. Luckily we got them out in time, and they are enjoying life in a foster home in Glencoe. They are super sweet and loving. They both like to cuddle and be held. They are super bonded and love to sleep together or romp and play in the yard. When we first got them they were scared to go outside, so we are not sure if they had ever been outside before. Also Josie could barely walk because her nails were so long. With a little TLC and Josies’ nails cut they are running and playing in the yard and their true personalities are really coming out. They are both healthy and happy. Pictures just don’t do these nuggets justice. They are so adorable you just have to meet them to understand. Please be their angel and give them a forever home where they can stay together. If you are interested in adopting them, please email [email protected] Thank you!
Ava

Ava
Meet little Ava! She is a 5 pound, 6-8 year old long-haired Chihuahua. She is a little love bug and wants nothing more than to be held or cuddled on someone’s lap. She also does well with other dogs, but she is not crazy about cats. She is very quiet unless a stranger walks into the house. When she sees a new person she will bark until they pet her, so she wouldn’t make a very good watch dog. 😉
Ava also needs a home with a secure fenced yard or a home where she is walked on a leash only because she will run every chance she gets. If you are looking for an adorable cuddle bug Ava would be perfect for you!
