Our story
Dizzy was a little 15 year old Chihuahua who was dumped and abandoned in a supermarket car park and left to fend for himself. He was in an appallingly poor condition, dirty and unkempt, unable to walk or see and with infected eyes and mouth, he would not have survived alone.
We were privileged to have given him a safe and happy home and showered him with love and affection before he very sadly died, leaving a huge gap in our lives.
Dizzy Chihuahua Rescue was set up in Dizzy’s memory, to keep this very special little dog’s name alive and to help little Chihuahuas in need…
Dogs Available for Adoption

House Trained: Yes Lead Trained: Yes Likes dogs: Yes Like cats: Not cat tested
Info: Darling Poppy is a loving and affectionate dog and will be your constant companion, protector and friend once she settles in and warms to you. She prefers women but is wary of men and strangers and needs time to trust on her on her own terms and in her own time. Her favourite place is the garden, chasing the wood pigeons and also loves her walks with the other rescue dogs. We are looking for a dog savvy owner who understands a dogs needs as Poppy may be protective if someone comes too close and does have some trigger points. She sometimes needs a guiding hand . She needs a calm, quiet home where she can be left alone until she decides that she feels safe and has time to do what she wants. She can get a little snappy having her harness put on and we therefore left it on her all the time to avoid stressing her. She understand the word no and fitted into the rescue pack without problem. Sadly Poppy and one of the dogs in her present home are sometimes reacting to each other and she is wary of and can be overwhelmed by men and strangers visiting the home. Poppy is wonderful little dog and once settled loves nothing more that playtime and cuddles.
