About Ellie
Hi, my name is Ellie, and I am a 4-year-old long haired Chihuahua.
I have been living with my foster mum for the past 3 months and the time has come for me to spread my wings and find my forever home.
If you are looking for a cuddle bug, then look no further because I’m your girl. Nothing makes me happier than being able to snuggle with my human and look adoringly into their eyes.
I’m a very quiet little girl who rarely barks but will let you know if there is someone around. I can be a bit timid when we first meet, but once I know you are not going to hurt me then I am happy to get to know you better.
I have been living with another little dog and would love the company but being an only fur baby would be ok too as long as my person is around most of the time. I really do not like cats at all.
I love going for walks or if you happen to have a doggy pram that is even better. I also have beautiful manners, especially when it comes to dinner time or when I am a good girl and get treats.
When it comes to sleeping arrangements, I would really love to be able to sleep on the bed with you, but if that’s not possible then I am happy to sleep in my own little bed next to your bed.
Sadly, I have had bad experiences with children in the past who don’t realise how little I am so would not be suitable for a young family. My ideal person would be a more mature person who was just mine to love.
Medical notes
Four year old Ellie is desexed and microchipped. She is up-to-date with vaccinations as well as flea, tick, intestinal worm and heart worm prevention.
She has had a full health check including bloods, a dental and patella checks and is a healthy young girl.
Adoption details
Chihuahua Rescue QLD Inc. is not a first to apply rescue group.We re-home our dogs based on the best possible family we can find them.
The first step to adopting a dog from us is to fill out an expression of interest form.
We encourage you to provide as much detail as possible about your family and your home as this helps us make sure we match you with the most suitable dog.
This form can be found at the following address: http://www.emailmeform.com/builder/form/Kczrs885x4lq3N9u4mQhca
Due to the large volume of inquiries we are unable to respond to all applications. If you are considered suitable for the dog you have applied for you will be contacted witihin one week of applying.
Please note: we do not organise any meet and greet without a completed expression of interest form.
Our adoption process involves:
1) Completing online application form - only shortlisted applicants will be contacted.
2) Arranging a meet and greet with the dogs foster carer, after which we ask you to take 24 hours to make a decision about whether you want to adopt this dog
3) A brief home visit and yard check from one of our volunteers
4) Adoption trial spanning four weeks.
We ask that you pay the dogs adoption fee at the beginning of the adoption trial, however this will be refunded if for any reason the dog is not working out in your home within the four week period. We offer a four week adoption trial to make sure that you have plenty of time for your new dog to settle into your home and so we can offer you full support during this period and beyond.
