Aurora

My story

Meet Aurora aka Aurie! Aurie is a chonky Chihuahua mix, approximately four-years-old. She originally came to the shelter with multiple other dogs, as part of a hoarding case. She was adopted back in 2020 and returned recently due to health issues of her adopter. Aurie is shy and avoidant with people, and will dart away when you try to pet her, although she does take treats from your hand once she knows you. Aurie will do best in a home with no small children and a secure yard/home that she cannot escape from. We are open to Aurie being adopted, or going to a foster home to help work on her socialization. Aurie enjoys the company of other dogs and should go to a home with at least one other dog, to help her adjust to her new environment. Other than being nervous around people, she is a happy little gal who enjoys sunbathing in the yard, treat time, and socializing with other dogs. Aurie is looking for a family that will be patient with her and not expect too much, too fast. If you would like to help a scared rescue dog and think Aurie might be a fit for your lifestyle, send us an email to chitownrescue@gmail.com.May 16, 2025, 3:56 am
