Who We Are

Chihuahua Rescue of San Diego County is a non-profit 501(c)(3) animal welfare group that was formed as a network of foster homes in response to the overwhelming number of unwanted and abandoned Chihuahuas in the San Diego area. Today, we help to place all types of Chihuahuas into caring homes.

Our Mission

Chihuahua Rescue of San Diego County is dedicated to rescuing and caring for homeless, abandoned and injured Chihuahuas. We provide medical attention, loving foster homes and adoption counseling in an effort to find our adoptable dogs the most suitable forever homes.

Chihuahuas are one of the most over-represented breeds in San Diego shelters, and we are committed to reducing this statistic by increasing spay/neuter awareness in our community.

What We Do

Chihuahua Rescue of San Diego County is truly a unique animal welfare organization. CRSDC provides food, shelter, medical care, spay or neuter, as well as adoption services for abandoned, neglected, abused, and injured pets. We also try to provide education for new adopters and they can always call with questions.

Chihuahuas are bold, lively, saucy, and courageous. This breed is not for small children. Chihuahuas may snap at teasing children. Due to their relatively small size, they may feel threatened and resort to using their teeth. Please do your research and make sure this is the right decision for you and your family.

CRSDC stands by all of its animals and should it be necessary, it takes back any animals it has adopted out at any time.
