I've also been desperately looking for a home for him, either permanent or foster until I can find him a home. I moved a year ago and am now in a situation where it's absolutely impossible for me to take a new dog. I have a fragile 15-year-old dog as well as a pit bull I rescued five years ago. The place I'm in is very small, about 800 sq. feet, with only a small strip of a yard that hardly even qualifies as a patio. So there's no place for me to keep a new dog separated from the others.
I've been spreading the word everywhere possible. This past Friday a co-worker said one of her friends would foster the dog. So I rushed over to the pound and paid the fees to get the dog out. But the co-worker was wrong, and her friend will not foster the dog.
I pick up the dog tomorrow, and have made arrangements with my vet to board him for a few days while I make a last ditch effort to find a place for this poor little guy. Otherwise I will have no choice but to put him down. I figure at least he'll leave this world in the arms of someone who cares about him instead of in the gutter or in one of the pound's mass killings.
I will have my vet give him a thorough check up. The pound is neutering him and giving him all his shots. If there is any kind-hearted person out there who loves and, more importantly, understands dogs, and who can help, no words could ever express how grateful I would be to you.
A special thanks to you, "Hair," for agreeing to help spread the word.

Awwww if I lived in CA, I'd take him.
God Bless you
I know someone who wants one but could not afford the airfare to get him to Houston. Best of luck, he may have to live with you. I am looking for one from our area for this person.
There are numerous dog rescue organizations in your area, probably even one for the breed in particular. Since you are having all this medical work done, they should be glad to take the dog and find it a permanent home. Please look for a rescue organization to avoid putting him down. The vet may know of one. Good luck
I am in Orange County. If you cannot find a place for him, please contact me before the dog is destroyed.

God bless you. Wolfstar.
You are one of the world's good people.
I would be willing to take him. I live in Yuma Az. Freepmail me and I will give you my details.

He is a beautiful dog, looks very sweet. There must be dozens of rescue/humane societies in your area with 100s of families pouring in over weekends to find a new family pet.
Here in the Chicago area there are so many. We found a sweety at this one in Naperville last Nov 03.

So wonderful of you to help him. Hope you find a wonderful place for him. If we were closer......

Can't take the dog, as we have 3, but Buddy, you are the best. An ace, pal, an ace.
What a beautiful little sweetie. Thank you so much for playing such a huge part in this miracle. I can't take him b/c of my small house, two big dogs and three cats, but I'm bumping the thread and praying.
I live on the central coast. My daughter and son-in-law are dog lovers. They have two...a little one that's old and starting to fail healthwise and will probably have to be put down soon. The other one is a German Shephard mix. Do you think this little fellow would have trouble adjusting to a big dog? Anyway, I'm going to send them the link and ask them if they'd be interested in taking him. Know for sure if they do he will have a good home and lots of TLC.
Thanks for your heart felt rescue. I'm in Mobile and already have four dogs. I can contribute a few $$$ if push-comes-to shove. Good luck.
I have owned several Chihuahuas...I would say this little guy is between 2 and 4 years old.
Chihuahuas will generally live about 18 years. I've seen them live to 23 years, and I've seen them pass of old age at 15.
