"Can anyone believe this? "
I do! I have found Chihuahua rescues and most small breed rescue's very very particular to whom they adopt out to. I can't say i blame them. And this is coming from someone who is also 'discriminated against' because i have a yound child (people with young children are not high on their lists either and most will not adopt out to people with small children).
I have a small dog, who is my "firstborn" and my dogs breed is known not to get along with children. But, surprise surprise, my dog and daughter are best friends, and my dog adores kids.
I don't think you should resort to buying from a breeder, i would just hold out until the right chi enter's a rescue, and the right rescue has a chi for adoption.
I think you also have to see things from the other person's point of view. Perhaps they are worried about the chi getting accidently stepped on or hurt by one of the dogs you foster?
Good luck!
