About Hetty
Hetty's story is heartbreaking, and the fact that she has remained so sweet and friendly is a testament to her wonderful little spirit. She was found wandering the streets, which is frightening as she is completely blind. She was rushed to the RSPCA, who discovered she was also very sick with a pyometra infection of the uterus - an easily preventable and very painful infection due to not being desexed. The RSPCA treated her infection, desexed her and cleaned her rotten teeth, and then sent her to us to be put into foster care and given some love.
When she came to us, she was quiet, withdrawn and her coat was dull. Now she has a new lease on life, she wags her tail and plays like a puppy, and her coat is the most beautiful soft coat, making her even better to cuddle!
Hetty is a sweet old girl who is completely blind. Even though Hetty can't see she happily toddles along behind you with her tail wagging all the time. She is gentle and affectionate and loves a cuddle. Hetty is very social with other dogs and has an all-round sweet nature. She enjoys being around people and is excellent with gentle children. Hetty is looking for a family that will spoil her for the rest of her senior years as she deserves.

Adoption details
If you are interested in adopting one of our dogs, please email chihuahuarescueqld@gmail.com for an Adoption Application. From there, we will be in contact with you within 48 hours to talk further about your application and if successful, to arrange a meet and greet.
Prior to adoption, all dogs will need to have a meet and greet with their family, and a house check will be done. All adoptions are subject to a two week trial to ensure your new friend fits in well with your household.
We have many dogs that are in foster care and are not yet ready to be listed for a variety of reasons. If you have a good idea of what you are looking for in your new dog please email us at chihuahuarescueqld@gmail.com and let us help you match a dog to your needs.
