New Zealand Chihuahua Rescue ("NZCR") is a New Zealand registered charity and dog rescue organization which is dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and re-homing of Chihuahuas and Chihuahua crosses throughout New Zealand. We also take in various other small or toy breed dogs, if and when we have the capacity available to do so.
We are predominantly based in Canterbury, but assist dogs from over New Zealand. We rehabilitate and rehome dogs relinquished into our care by owners, alongside working with nationwide Council Animal Shelters, other Rescues, breeders or kennels owners.
All dogs adopted through our Trust are medically assessed, de-sexed, vaccinated up to date, flea and worm treated, micro-chipped and registered with the local Council and New Zealand Companion Animal Register, together with any other diagnostic testing, treatments or surgeries required by the individual dog. We also take care of any behavioral or training needs. We pride ourselves on being comprehensive, and note any medical conditions or behavioral and personality quirks
