Jack Chi (Jack Russell Terrier x Chihuahua Mix) Dog for Adoption in Yuma AZ – Supplies Included – Adopt Cookie
Cookie is a Female Jack Chi (Chihuahua JRT Jack Russell Terrier Mix) dog for adoption to a very loving home in or near Yuma, AZ. This very special dog is 5 years old and weighs 10 pounds.
Cookie is what we call a “ready to love” dog. She has been fixed, fully vaccinated, housebroken, crate trained, and well behaved. Just adopt – and adore! She is good with well behaved children and dog-friendly dogs, too. She has no cat-experience, but chances are good she would be equally polite to felines.
Cookie definitely put the “C” in cuddly – she is a lap dog extraordinaire! She also put the “C” in chill – she rarely barks and loves to nap in the sunshine. She was made for life in Arizona and California! And we could go on and on on this “C” theme – she is cute, a great companion, charming, cheerful, calm, and captivating! Need we go on?

Find Chihuahuas for Adoption Near You

Why Adopt a Pre-Loved Chihuahua Through Pet Rehoming Network?
Private home-to-home adoption gives you a different way to get to know a dog. Chihuahuas being rehomed through Pet Rehoming Network remain with their owners while a suitable new home is sought, so prospective adopters can learn directly from the person who knows the dog best.
Learn the Dog’s Real Story
Ask about routines, training, health information supplied by the owner, favorite activities, fears, habits and the kind of home in which the dog has been happiest.
Meet Before You Commit
Qualified adopters can arrange an appropriate meeting with the dog and owner before deciding whether the match feels right.
Understand Individual Compatibility
One Chihuahua may adore other dogs and children while another needs a quiet adult home. Detailed profiles help you evaluate the individual rather than relying on breed stereotypes.
Familiar Belongings May Come Along
Some privately rehomed Chihuahuas come with a bed, carrier, crate, harness, clothing, food, toys or other familiar belongings. Confirm inclusions with the owner.
Is a Chihuahua Right for You?
Chihuahuas are tiny dogs, but adopting one is still a serious long-term commitment. Their small size can make them convenient companions for apartments, condos and smaller homes, yet individual temperament, socialization and training matter enormously.
Size & Home Life
Chihuahuas are among the smallest companion dogs. Their size can work well in compact homes, but they still need structure, enrichment and appropriate exercise.
Temperament
Many Chihuahuas form exceptionally close bonds with their people. Individual dogs may range from outgoing and social to cautious, protective or strongly attached to one favorite person.
Children & Handling
Some Chihuahuas thrive with respectful children; others are better suited to adults. Because of their small frames, gentle handling and sensible supervision are important.
Other Pets
Compatibility with cats and other dogs varies. Use the individual adoption profile and owner history rather than assuming a Chihuahua will—or will not—enjoy another pet.
Exercise & Enrichment
A Chihuahua does not need marathon exercise, but daily walks, play, training and mental stimulation still matter. Small does not mean inactive.
Coat & Grooming
Smooth-coated and long-haired Chihuahuas have different grooming needs. Nail care, dental care and routine veterinary care remain important for both coat types.
For deeper information about Chihuahua temperament, training, grooming, health, exercise, nutrition and everyday life, read the complete Chihuahua breed guide at Dogs Central.
Chihuahua Puppies, Long-Haired Chihuahuas, Teacup Searches & Chihuahua Mixes
People looking to adopt a Chihuahua often have a particular age, coat or type in mind. These variations can be explored on one comprehensive adoption hub rather than splitting every modifier into a thin standalone page.
Chihuahua Puppies for Adoption
Puppies are occasionally available, although adult Chihuahuas appear more often in private rehoming. A puppy requires intensive socialization, house training, supervision and veterinary care, so consider whether a young dog truly fits your schedule.
Long-Haired Chihuahua Adoption
Long-haired Chihuahuas have the same tiny companion-dog appeal with a fuller coat and additional grooming needs. Use the current listings and waiting list if long-haired coat type is important to you.
Apple Head, Deer Head & “Teacup” Chihuahua Searches
Adopters commonly search for terms such as apple-head, deer-head and teacup Chihuahua. Focus first on the individual dog’s adult size, health, temperament and suitability for your household rather than a marketing label.
Chihuahua Mixes for Adoption
Chihuahua mixes can combine Chihuahua traits with another breed in fascinating ways. Pet Net also maintains adoption hubs for mixes such as Chipins, along with many individual mixed-breed profiles.
Can’t Find the Right Chihuahua Today?
The right Chihuahua may simply not be listed yet. New dogs enter the network as owners request rehoming help, and current dogs leave as successful matches are made.
If you are waiting for a particular age, coat type, location or personality, add your preferences to our adoption waiting list.
Compassionate Help for Chihuahua Owners
Need to Rehome a Chihuahua?
Having to find a new home for a Chihuahua you love can be heartbreaking. Illness, housing changes, family circumstances, financial hardship and many other situations can make rehoming necessary even when an owner is deeply devoted to their dog.
Pet Rehoming Network provides private, home-to-home Chihuahua rehoming assistance throughout the United States and Canada. Your dog remains safely with you while a suitable new home is sought. We can help you present your Chihuahua thoughtfully, reach potential adopters, provide guidance during the process and work toward a home chosen with your dog’s needs in mind.
Our goal is not simply to find someone willing to take your Chihuahua. It is to help you find people who understand the dog you love and are prepared to provide the care, stability and affection your companion deserves.
Other Ways to Find a Chihuahua for Adoption
If Pet Rehoming Network does not currently have the right Chihuahua for you, reputable breed rescues and local shelters are also worth checking. Availability and service areas change, so always review each organization’s current adoption information.

Chihuahua Adoption & Rehoming FAQ
Where can I find Chihuahuas for adoption near me?
Start with the current Chihuahua adoption listings on this page. Pet Rehoming Network features privately owned dogs throughout the United States and Canada, and availability changes as new dogs are listed. You can also join the waiting list if the right Chihuahua is not available today.
Can I meet a Chihuahua before deciding to adopt?
Yes. Qualified prospective adopters can arrange an appropriate meeting with the dog and current owner before making a commitment. This gives you an opportunity to ask questions, spend time with the dog and consider whether the match feels right.
Are Chihuahuas good apartment dogs?
Their small size can make Chihuahuas well suited to apartments and condos, but size is only part of the picture. Individual dogs still need appropriate exercise, enrichment, training and a home that can comfortably manage barking, visitors and other everyday situations.
Are Chihuahuas good with children?
Some Chihuahuas live very happily with respectful children, while others are better suited to an adult home. Because Chihuahuas are very small and can be physically delicate, families should read each dog's individual profile carefully and consider the dog's known history with children.
Are Chihuahuas good with cats and other dogs?
It depends on the individual dog and their previous experience. Some Chihuahuas enjoy other pets, while others prefer to be the only animal in the home. The adoption profile should describe known compatibility, and adopters should ask the owner follow-up questions before committing.
Do Chihuahuas for adoption come with supplies?
Some privately rehomed Chihuahuas come with familiar belongings such as a bed, crate, carrier, leash, harness, food, toys or grooming supplies. What is included varies by dog, so check the individual profile and confirm details with the owner.
Do you have Chihuahua puppies for adoption?
Puppies are sometimes available, but availability changes constantly. Adult and senior Chihuahuas are much more common in private rehoming. If you specifically hope to adopt a Chihuahua puppy, check current listings and join the waiting list.
How do I rehome my Chihuahua safely?
Pet Rehoming Network offers private home-to-home dog rehoming assistance. Your Chihuahua remains with you while you search for a suitable new family. We can help present your dog, reach potential adopters and guide you through the process of finding a carefully matched home.
