My story

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

Linda is an 8 year old Chihuahua and full of life. She’s up to date on shots, housebroken, microchipped and spayed.



Linda has a bit of SASS and is a very loyal companion. She loves to go on walks and smell all the new things and rides well in a car.



Linda does well with dogs her size but bigger dogs she will definitely have something to say especially if she protecting her space. She has shown no real interest in cats, only sniffing them through a fence. She has decided she likes toys now and she will be very content having them available to her.



Her ideal home would be an adult only home with a woman who has a fenced yard and likes to give lots of love. She doesn’t like strangers walking in the door and isn’t overly fond of men in her space. She sleeps in her own bed but would love to have a person to snuggle in with.



Linda is a loving girl who needs a patient person that will give her time to warm up. She bonds easily once she realizes you are her human and she is a wonderful little happy companion with a ton of love to give.



If you are ready to give this sassy girl her forever home, please fill out a Statement of Interest for her at https://alternativehumanesociety.com/statement-of-interest-dog/
