Mr. Nugget Axl's Story

Hi… I’m Axl.<br/><br/>I am about 7 years old Chihuahua, weighing 9 lbs with a big personality. <br/>Yes… I know what you’re thinking.<br/>“Wow, that’s a very cute… slightly round… little nugget.”<br/><br/>I prefer the term extra lovable.<br/><br/>I’m neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and healthy, but the thing I want most isn’t found in a medical chart.<br/>It’s found in a family…<br/>a lap…<br/>a warm voice…<br/>a safe place to rest my head.<br/><br/>I am from Southern California and coming to live with my foster family in Ridgefield, WA by the middle of April and can travel to Vancouver, BC if there is a potential adopter for me. My adoption fee is $700USD<br/><br/>Adoption Application Link: https://forms.gle/rh4RkabUr7fYkRDV9<br/>(If not clickable, copy & paste into your browser)<br/><br/>Here is my story:<br/><br/>I may have a little bonus fluff right now, but hey—more of me to love, right? And don’t worry, I’ve got the energy to work it off. I LOVE to move. To run. To sniff every single thing like it holds the secrets of the universe.<br/><br/>The world is just so interesting… I can’t help myself.<br/><br/>One minute I’m zooming around like a tiny explorer…<br/>and the next?<br/><br/>I’m curled up in your lap, snoring like I just ran a marathon.<br/><br/>That’s kind of my thing—<br/>full speed… then full cuddle.<br/><br/>I don’t like being far from my people.<br/>Actually… I don’t like it at all.<br/><br/>If you move, I move.<br/>If you sit, I sit.<br/>If you go somewhere… I’m already on my way with you.<br/><br/>They call me a Velcro dog, but I just think…<br/>why would I be anywhere else?<br/><br/>Oh—and I should warn you… I talk.<br/><br/>Not barking all the time… just little sounds.<br/>Tiny conversations.<br/>Whines, grumbles, dramatic opinions about life.<br/><br/>Sometimes during play, I sound like I’m fighting for my life—<br/>but I promise, it’s all part of the show.<br/><br/>I’m a performer. <br/><br/>And when I get a little too excited?<br/>Well… that’s when I get picked up and put in “air jail.”<br/><br/>Don’t worry—I don’t mind.<br/>It just means someone’s paying attention to me… and honestly, I love that.<br/><br/>Car rides?<br/>Oh, I’m READY.<br/><br/>Let’s go anywhere. Everywhere.<br/>As long as I’m with you, I’m happy.<br/><br/>But if I’m being real for a moment…<br/><br/>All the running, the sniffing, the silly noises—<br/>that’s just the fun part of me.<br/><br/>What I really want…<br/>is someone to stay close to.<br/><br/>Someone who laughs at my little quirks…<br/>who doesn’t mind a shadow that follows them everywhere…<br/>who has a lap that’s always open when I’m ready to crash.<br/><br/>I may be small…<br/>but I bring a lot of life, a lot of love, and a whole lot of personality.<br/><br/>So if you’re looking for a tiny best friend who will keep you entertained, keep you company, and never let you feel alone…<br/><br/>I’m right here.<br/><br/>Your little nugget.<br/>Your shadow.<br/>Your Axl

Hi… I’m Axl.

I am about 7 years old Chihuahua, weighing 9 lbs with a big personality.
Yes… I know what you’re thinking.
“Wow, that’s a very cute… slightly round… little nugget.”

I prefer the term extra lovable.

I’m neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and healthy, but the thing I want most isn’t found in a medical chart.
It’s found in a family…
a lap…
a warm voice…
a safe place to rest my head.

I am from Southern California and coming to live with my foster family in Ridgefield, WA by the middle of April and can travel to Vancouver, BC if there is a potential adopter for me. My adoption fee is $700USD

The world is just so interesting… I can’t help myself.

One minute I’m zooming around like a tiny explorer…
and the next?

I’m curled up in your lap, snoring like I just ran a marathon.

That’s kind of my thing—
full speed… then full cuddle.

I don’t like being far from my people.
Actually… I don’t like it at all.

Nowruz Animal Rescue Group's Adoption Policy
Our Foster-to-Adopt Process At Nowruz Animal Rescue Group, we follow a foster-to-adopt process to ensure that each pet and family are a perfect match for one another. This approach allows both the dog and the adoptive family to adjust and bond before making a lifelong commitment. Step 1: Application Once a pet is listed for adoption, interested families are invited to fill out an online application form. This form includes: Three personal references The name of the veterinarian who will care for the pet Step 2: Application Review & Phone Chat After reviewing the application, we contact strong candidates for a phone interview. This gives us a chance to get to know the family better and answer any initial questions. Step 3: Home Check If the phone conversation goes well, we arrange a home check to ensure the living environment is safe and suitable for the specific pet. Step 4: Meet & Greet Next, we schedule a meet and greet with the dog and the family—either at the home or a secure, neutral location. One or two meetings may be arranged so everyone, especially the pet, has time to feel comfortable. During this time, we also complete reference checks. Step 5: Foster-to-Adopt Trial If the family decides to move forward, the dog begins a foster-to-adopt trial period. We deliver the pet to their new home along with essentials such as: Collar and leash Food and treats Favorite toys We encourage families to stay in touch throughout the transition. If you need support or guidance, we are just a phone call away.
