About Our Rescue
Chihuahua Rescue Queensland Inc (CRQ) is a foster-based dog rescue organisation founded in 2014. We exist to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome abandoned, impounded and surrendered chihuahuas, chihuahua crosses and other small dogs in Queensland, Australia.
The Chihuahua Rescue Queensland team consists of a group of passionate and committed dog lovers with years of experience rescuing and caring for dogs. CRQ was originally founded by a team of vet nurses, vets and dog trainers who committed to build a rescue group with high standards of veterinary care for each and every dog that came into their care. As the team grows and changes over the years, we are committed to maintaining our high standards and goals for the rescue group and each animal in our care.
Chihuahua Rescue Queensland Inc does not have a shelter, instead each dog is cared for in a foster home. Our foster dogs are treated as family members by our foster carers who are located in the Brisbane and Sunshine Coast areas. We believe that by placing each dog in a loving foster home, we are able to get to know them on a personal level and best match them to their forever home.
Chihuahua Rescue Queensland is a registered and incorporated charity, with all donations over $2 being tax deductible.
