These senior Chihuahuas have been inseparable for 8 years — and they need a family that wants them both!

After their owner passed away, Zachary and Pee Wee were taken to a big public shelter in North Carolina. The shelter was already very crowded when they arrived. Because they couldn’t accommodate them, they were soon pulled by Adoption First Animal Rescue.

When the senior Chihuahuas first arrived, it became immediately clear just how much the pair loved each other. The shelter also discovered how important it was for them to always be together.

Zachary and Pee Wee have been together for all eight years of their lives. They couldn’t imagine life without each other. They have a very special bond. And, everyone at the rescue has loved getting to know them and learning just how close they are.

“They cuddle all of the time,” Nicole Johnson, a staffer at Adoption First Animal Rescue, told The Dodo. “They want to be curled up with each other, and look to each other to feel safe. When separated, Pee Wee gets very depressed and has a hard time warming up to new people!”

The Senior Chihuahuas

Zachary is definitely the more social of the two, and while Pee Wee can be very shy, with Zachary by her side there isn’t anything she can’t conquer eventually.

“Zachary is the more friendly and loving one,” Johnson said. “He loves to be held and cuddled. And Pee Wee takes her time to trust new people. She likes her space and only wants to be cuddled after she trusts you!”
