If you are only interested in temporarily Fostering one of our rescues, please fill out a Foster Application. 11/22/25 Roxy is the most adorable and funny xs breed around. We do NOT know her breed but rescued from the streets of Ensenada we know she is a super mutt. Currently fostered at casa de ARWOB along with severa other foster dogs and cats. She is pretty great with all size dogs and cats. She may be small BUT she plays no problem with the large breeds and LOVES her toys, she may have a bit of a hoarding incline in her too. She loves to fetch the tennis ball and will hoard her tennis balls around from location to location trying to defuzz them. She also can be found nibbling on any benabones and rough plastic toys. She has a very funny, active and loving personality. She is not a yappy dog BUT can be barky especially if things are going outside the house to warn you. She does OK in car rides, has not gotten car sick BUT she does tend to be a bit scared and try to hide under the car seat, she probably would do better with a car seat or a second person in the car vs her alone in the back seat. Signing up for dog training for this girl would be great for her so she can be a fantastic companion, she certainly will bring love, entertainment and laughter to anyones home. She is spayed fully vetted and healthy READY to find a home before the Holidays! 11/1/25 This young cutie was found outside of a rescuers home when she opened the gate to leave early mornign for work this little girl was outside sitting down looking afraid and lost. She had never seen her before and took her to the vet close by to see if they recognized her as a patient and network to find owner. After a couple of weeks and no owner claiming her she contacted ARWOB for help to accept her which we did. READY for adoption and currently also searching for a foster.

We do NOT place holds on rescues, only submit applications if ready to adopt. Typically adoptions are the same day of scheduled meet and greets assuming it goes well and there is a connection between both parties.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Chiweenie, an adorable and increasingly popular designer breed, is a delightful cross between the spirited Chihuahua and the charming Dachshund. Originating in the United States, these small companions inherited a unique blend of traits from their parent breeds. Physically, they typically possess a long, low body reminiscent of the Dachshund, combined with the often-large ears and expressive eyes of the Chihuahua. Their coats can vary widely in color and texture, from short and smooth to long and wiry. Temperamentally, Chiweenies are known for being loyal, affectionate, and surprisingly energetic. They often exhibit a playful and sometimes stubborn streak, making early socialization and training beneficial. Their small size makes them well-suited for apartment living and families with older children or individuals seeking a devoted lapdog. While generally robust, potential health considerations include issues common to their parent breeds, such as patellar luxation and intervertebral disc disease, making regular veterinary check-ups important for their long-term well-being.
