Here's what the humans have to say about me:
This is what Mickey and Minnie's foster had to say about this dynamic duo
They are about 2 years old and around 11 lbs, fully vetted and both are extremely loving. The day we rescued them, a couple neighbors and myself were actually looking for a lab mix seen wandering the streets for weeks. One man asked us if we could help him get two little dogs that were dumped in his yard. They were so terrified it took us an hour to grab them. The darker colored female, Minnie, is the more active one and definitely the Alpha of the two. The white male, Mickey, follows her everywhere she goes and is a happy go lucky guy. Both love to sleep in a kennel and cuddle up at night. They love to go on walks and are really good on a leash. My three year old loves to pet them and they love the attention. They get along great with my small and medium size dogs but seem a little afraid of my two larger dogs. I do not have cats because I am severely allergic, but can probably have that tested with my neighbor who has cats and also fosters. They seem to be potty trained with the exception of one accident, and that was my fault for not taking them outside. Mickey Mouse does not like to eat his food from a bowl and prefers the floor. He will try to bury it under his blanket after he's dumped it over, so now I just serve him his food as he pleases. He's quite comical to observe. Both are very good guard dogs and will bark the minute someone rings the doorbell.
Overall, they make a great pair and ideally I would love to keep them together if possible.
If you would like to adopt this pair, please go to www.texaschihuahuarescue.com and fill out an online application
The adoption fee will be reduced for adopting both together
