Pint-sized Frannie arrived at NCCR on 8/29/26, transferred out of a full-to-capacity shelter that ran out of room for her. She is a classic Chihuahua is looks and personality. She weighs just 10 lbs. and is guessed to be about 7-8 years old. Frannie loves to sit on your lap or snuggle up beside you, and is good with other dogs & cats, too. She is also house trained, and will go out when asked, although she is still learning how to let you know when’s she’s gotta go! Frannie will let other pets know her boundaries if they get too “in your face” with her, but otherwise she is sweet-natured and social with both people and pets.

If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first step should be to complete an Application.   *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application. It takes a lot of time to process the applications, so we ask for your patience while we do so. If you see that the dog you were interested in has been adopted it means there were many applications for that dog and we did not get as far as processing your application before a home was found. We welcome you to apply again if you see another dog that interests you.   If you have a question, please email your question to adoptions@caninerescue.org. It is much easier and quicker for us to respond by email as we receive many phone calls each day.

We do adopt out of state, however we do not transport or ship dogs. Potential adopter must be able and willing to travel to the Rescue to meet the dog they are interested in.

*PLEASE double check all of the phone numbers that you provide as if they are incorrect, we will be unable to process your application. Please also let your references know that someone from NCCR will be calling them. Most adoption team members call from their personal phone so advise your references that there may be an unknown number or a private number calling them.
