Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Jade is a very sweet six year old chihuahua who loves to cuddle. She doesn't have much fur on her underside, so she will definitely need some little coats and sweaters. She weighs about 7.5 pounds and came to us from a shelter where she was very scared.
Jade is the type of chihuahua that takes a little bit of time to get to know new people. She doesn't do well with a lot of fast movements, so is best around kids 10 and up who will give her space and know how to handle a small dog. If she is pushed too far to fast, she can be a snappy little girl, but she is super sweet once she's had the time to bond to you.
Jade loves to sleep under the covers at night, and she likes to be held. She would enjoy a quiet environment where she can get lots of snuggles. She does fine around other dogs - but would prefer small dogs because they aren't quite as scary as the big ones. She isn't afraid to stand up to a big dog that's invading her personal space.
Jade isn't around carpet in her foster home, but appears to have some good puppy pad training. She is left out in a large area with puppy pads while her foster is at work. All dogs need a refresher course on house training when they move to a new house with a new routine.
Jade is very sweet!
Adoption fee is $300.00 (no checks)
Foster to contact: Katie - 605-695-5126 (text preferred) or krkallemeyn@hotmail.com
This dog will be at our adoption event at the Woodbury PetSmart on Saturday from 11-2 looking for a home!
Our fosters do the best they can to provide all information about the animal's background and temperament while in foster care in their home. An adopters routine and home environment is likely going to be different than that in their foster home.
Sometimes there is more that comes out about a dog's personality once they have been able to settle in a home and truly become comfortable. There are great articles out there written about the different stages a pet goes through after adoption, discussing transitions that happen at 3 days, 3 weeks, and 3 months. We highly recommend reading about this - it will help you understand the transition your new pet goes through.
