About Sisq
Sisq is our special Gent with a heart of gold. Thanks to his successful patella surgery and his dedication to taking his daily heart medication, he is set to enjoy his retirement years enjoying everything that life throws his way.
Being an older guy he’d prefer to live his twilight years with someone in the same stage of life that he’s in, so that they can share similar interests – like putting his feet up and enjoying life at a slower pace. He has some separation anxiety and would love nothing more than to become your shadow. But he does love snuggling his canine companions also.
That doesn’t mean he’s not social! He loves going to the park, attending the Chihuahua meet ups and is always very friendly and welcoming to new people and dogs. In short, he’s a real sweetheart and the Grandad that everyone wants to have!

Medical notes
All Chihuahua Rescue Queensland dogs have been fully health checked by our vets. We offer a free post-adoption health check with Greencross Vets at Chermside, Jindalee, Browns Plains or Indooroopilly hospitals. This gives you the opportunity to talk directly to the vet about any questions you may have. We provide all veterinary records for each dog, including copies of blood tests, any relevant xrays and medical notes.
All Chihuahua Rescue Queensland dogs are desexed, vaccinated and microchipped. We test all our dogs for heartworm and treat them with regular parasite prevention.
Sisq has spent alot of time in foster care as we've addressed his medical needs. He's had a patella surgery as his luxating patellas were causing pain. He's also had blood tests and xrays for his heart condition. His health is now very stable and he is doing great. He does require daily medication and comes at a cost of about $25 a week. He's totally worth it though.
Adoption details

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.
