Recent Pet News, Tips & Info...Choose the Airedale Terrier as a Pet and Say Good-Bye to Boredom“The King of the Terriers”, the Airedale terrier comes from Airedale, Yorkshire, England, and it is the largest of the terrier breeds. It comes from crossing the old and vanished breeds of the Black-and-Tan terrier with the Otterhound. It is also said that they have the Manchester terrier in their blood. They were initially bred to hunt otters (reason for which they are also called the Waterside Terrier) and hares in the valley of the Aire river - that also gave its name to the breed - and to herd sheep, being both shepherd and hunting dogs. The Africanis Dog From the South African Plains to Your Home Dog breeders do not officially recognize Africanis as a breed. Also known as the Bantu Dog or the Zulu Dog, the breed developed in South Africa and it is basically comprised of similar breeds that are originally from the area. However, dog historians have acquired enough evidence to conclude that, originally, the breed lived in the East and Middle East and migrated to Africa in ancient times. The Zulu Dog is a perfect companion for people, whether we are talking about more traditional activities like hunting or herding, or simply about the pleasure of having a dog companion. The Afghan Hound Elegance and Distinction If the old saying that claims that dogs and masters resemble each other is true, then the Afghan hound is surely the dog most likely to be seen in the presence of an aristocrat. Its silky, thick coat will match any of its masters' designer dresses or elegant suits. Distinguished in looks and personality, this is one of the breeds that you can't stop looking at when seeing on the street and that you are very likely to see at a dog show. The Aidi Dog A Perfect Watchdog Of Moroccan origin, the Aidi dog evolved as a watchdog for herds of goats and sheep. For this reason, it has heightened senses that are very good at detecting threats and its instincts are perfectly in tune, resulting in a speedy and efficient reaction. These characteristics are also perfect for a hunting dog - so it is also very good at filling that role. Very courageous, this breed has evolved in the Morrocan mountains, protecting itself and its owners from many vicious predators like wildcats, but also from strangers. Also called the Berber (it was commonly used by Berber tribes), this breed is very similar to Pariah dogs - to which it is believed to be related. |

All of our little furry friends are placed in foster homes and are not housed in a shelter situation. They are cared for in a healty, safe and loving foster home. When we receive a little one in, he/she will receive all medical care that maybe needed. All of our little ones are spay/neutered, fully vaccinated, heartworm tested, fecal tested and have all their veterinary needs taken care of prior to adoption. We will also provide treatment for heartworms, luxating patellas, dental work, parvo, etc. We are a no kill organization and will do whatever we can to restore health and quality of life for each and every little one that we rescue.

We will not turn away a dog because it is injuried, ill or elderly. Our seniors and special needs dogs will make a wonderful addition to your family, so please also consider the adoption of one of our special little ones. The dogs you visit on our website are living in our homes as loved members of our families. They beg at the table at meals, sleep in our beds, snuggle in our laps while we watch TV, go for rides in the car, chase the mop, and happily celebrate our return home, even after just taking out the garbage!!! We are not a shelter. These are our homes and everyone that comes into our homes has the run of it. We keep the dog in our homes for some TLC and evaluation in regard to its temperament, socialization, and health, in order to make the best possible fit for a prospective adopter. Forgive us if we seem to be intrusive when applying for a dog. We are extremely picky in choosing homes for our little ones. Once they become members of our family, we treat them as we would our own children when we're placing them in a new home. Although we don’t always have a history on the dog’s past or know how it got to the shelter, we do have a sense of its character and needs. If you see a little one that you'd like to adopt, please fill out an adoption application. We get quite a few applications, so please be patient with us as we are all volunteers and work full time jobs, as we do get back to each and every person. If we feel that you would be a good match for one of our little ones, we will phone or email you and make an appointment for a home visit. We, generally, do not adopt our little ones to families with children under the age of 6. To see the adoptable pets for Chihuahua & Small Dog Rescue, LLC click here Return to list
