My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Willow is a very pretty 2 year old chihuahua that weighs 9 lbs. All we know is that Willow was found by a guy who kept her locked in his bedroom over the garage away from the rest of the family. Often he would leave home for 10 days and in that time Willow would not be fed. We have no idea what else happened to her while prisoner in that room. Dear little Willow is now out of that awful situation and waiting for a caring, forever home.

Due to her past life, Willow at times has extreme anxiety. When she encounters someone new, she does not just bark as many dogs will do but she does a dog equivalent of screaming. Once she feels comfortable with a person, or situation she is fine. At times there seems to be no rhyme or reason to her moods as she can be in a situation that many dogs would find stressful, yet she is just fine. In view of her personality, we feel she definitely needs to be adopted into not just a loving, caring home but a patient one. A home where she will be given time to decompress and feel secure. Having a session, or two with a behaviorist could be helpful.

Her foster home loves her, finds her to be very sweet, dainty and well mannered. As is her case with people, once Willow is comfortable, she enjoys the company of other dogs. She gets along beautifully with the other dogs in her foster home and even the cat. Willow walks beautifully on a leash and is fine in the car.

She has a bark that is definitely bigger than her bite, as she has she has never bitten!

Willow is up-to-date on shots, spayed and microchipped. If you are interested in her please complete the adoption application on our website: www.adoptmerescue.org.
