Breed labels are given based on information obtained during intake and/or best guesses based on appearance and/or temperament of the dogs and Take Paws Rescue gives no assurance to the accuracy of these labels. Labels are necessary for postings to many animal networking sites, such as our website, Chewy, Pet Finder, and others. These are in no way a guarantee. Additionally, exact age and potential size cannot be guaranteed.<br/><br/>***Take Paws Rescue, based in New Orleans, saves dogs from high-kill shelters across the South, owner surrenders, and discarded dogs with uncertain futures. All of our animals live in foster homes where they are socialized and well cared for. An application will be required to make sure it's the perfect match!

Meet Milkbone!
Male Yorkie/Chihuahua/Dachshund Mix Born mid-July 2026

It's hard to imagine a tinier beginning to a rescue story. Milkbone and his two littermates were found tucked inside a milk carton under a bridge, all weighing less than 2 pounds.

Thankfully, their story changed the moment they were found.

Now safe with Take Paws, little Milkbone is getting exactly what he needs: nutritious food, warmth, TLC, and plenty of gentle love. He's still just a tiny baby, but he's already showing us what a sweet little soul he is.

Milkbone appears to be a Yorkie/Chihuahua/Dachshund mix and was born around mid-July. With that combination, there's really no telling exactly what he'll look like when he grows up, but we're fairly certain "ridiculously adorable" will remain one of his defining characteristics.
