PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE BIO BEFORE INQUIRING ABOUT MY ADOPTION PLEASE :)
I am a very cute, very TINY Chihuahua possibly a teacup chihuahua, weighing in at only 3lbs.
My rescue does not know who my mom and dad were so we dont know for sure. I was born around Halloween 10/31/18. I am a sweet but spicey, very happy, playful puppy and like foster mom says a cuddlebug demanding to be held, I am a purse dog and an investigating puppy, open minded and never to tired to play with lots of energy.
I was rescued as a baby, as my owner could not keep me. I was taken away from my Mama and Siblings FAR TOO SOON and given to the human who bottle fed me. The human who took me in said that when she adopted me that I had no teeth... my rescue family told me that I must have only been 3 to 4 weeks old at that time :( I really missed my mommies milk and critical bonding time with Mama and my siblings... :(
At 8 wks was told I have to go! we cannot afford the Apartment deposit for me to stay!!...
I thought... WHAT? I am just a baby!! and wondered how my Human could let me go....
Our rescuer who had been searching for a companion or surrogate puppy for my rescue brother Bowie, found me and even with my spicey attitude, scooped me up and took me home to share a family life with Bowie and Mama Bianca. Surrogate Mama Bianca took me in with love almost immediately loving on me and cleaning me. Bowie was ecstatic to have a sibling as much as I was...!! :) to play with. Well... after a couple days anyway... LOL
I am a pretty feisty teacup size girl with a BIG over bite, which rescue mom says is a birth defect... I dont care I love my new life and I had not known or remembered siblings or sharing.. only my human... so I learned too how to play and love and bond with furfamily. My new Mama and brother are my family and I am so happy to be loved and learn from them. I still need some work with socialization skills but when the time comes, my rescue says they will find the perfect home for me with another happy doggie that I can grow with.
I have had 1 DHAPP puppy shot and will have 2 more of puppy vaccinations soon to complete the series. I have been dewormed and we already visited a really nice veterinarian who said I am super healthy for a tiny kid. I am available for adoption with Bianca or Bowie or both, or you MUST have another friendly dog presently, for me to be considered. Please read the following. Do NOT apply if you do not have another pack member for me at your home, or cannot offer a home to Bowie or Mama and I together. Do not apply if you have wrought iron fencing in your yard because in the blink of an eye, I would be gone.
PUPPY POLICY
Our rescuer does have a ‘PUPPY POLICY’. For the benefit of us little ones, our rescue requires that there be an existing doggie, a dog and people friendly dog in the home, or consider adoption of a second dog, either thru this rescue or another. The purpose of this is to raise us in the best possible situation for our growing period and teach us to be bonded with another pooch instead of bonded to our humans. We learn to be dog social as well as people social and not to guard our humans later in life, it helps us to become well rounded adult doggies. If you do not have another dog, you can consider another dog from RLDR. If you do not have another dog, your application will be denied. NO DOG should ever live alone! When you go to work all day dogs are lonely, every dog needs a buddyGood Behaviors are learned in puppyhood… ❤
Our rescue is accepting qualified applications at this time. Please submit video or photos of your perimeter fencing and gates with your application. If you have another dog that will teach me to be a good grown up dog then I am waiting for you right here – if you feel I am the one you have been looking for so long, please use contact info to schedule a meet and greet soon
