A community about dogs.

Breeds, tips and tricks about training and behaviour, news affecting dog owners, canine photography, dog-related art and any questions related to dog ownership.

Rules

  1. Posts must be related to dogs or dog ownership and must not be void of content.
  2. This is a neutral space. No bigotry or personal attacks. Criticism should be polite and constructive.
  3. No automated content. This includes AI generated imagery, post body, articles, comments or automated accounts.
  4. No advertising or self-promotion.
  5. Illegal or unethical practices are frowned upon, and any comments or posts suggesting them will be removed. This includes, but is not limited to, backyard breeding, ear and tail cropping, fake service animals, negative reinforcement, alpha/pack/dominance theory, and eugenics.
  6. No judging or attacking community members who care for dogs with cropped ears, docked tails, or those from puppy mills or questionable sources. While we discourage these practices (per Rule 5), all dogs deserve loving homes and compassionate care regardless of their background or physical alterations.
  7. No breed discrimination, all breeds welcome. Our stance matches the ASPCA's official stance and is not up for debate.
  8. Citing your sources when making a claim is encouraged. Misinformation will be removed.

Oh thank you so much for trying, and I’m sorry it didn’t work out - but I am glad to hear she was rescued by someone.

You truly have a kind heart - you rushed in to save a creature that would be hard to take care of, despite all the potential challenges. You seriously have no idea how amazing that makes you.

Thank you.

If you do find her let me know, I'm still very much interested in adopting. I've got tons of experience with chihuahuas

UPDATE: I was able to locate Margo at a local rescue and passed the info on to CreativeShotgun. Thank you all for your support for this little critter!
