Betty is a three year-old roly-poly Chihuahua mix. She is energetic and lively. Betty was born without eyeballs, so she is blind. But her other senses are keen and well honed. Betty also has deformed legs that caused her gate to be slower and less efficient than your average four-legged creature. She learns her surroundings quickly and has even surprised her foster parent by teaching herself how to use the dog door.
Betty goes to the park every day to get exercise. She loves being in the grass and basking in the sunshine. Goin go on walks is not Betty’s style. She would rather run for short distances and then sit down and rest.
The couch is Betty’s favorite place to snuggle. She loves to sit in your lap, roll over onto her back and have her belly rubbed. She loves to be held and sometimes she gets to go for a ride in a dog bag that her foster parent wears around her shoulders. If it’s not too hot outside, Betty also enjoys sitting on the patio of a winery or a brewery. She is social and likes to be pet by everyone.
Betty currently lives with a couple of other dogs. Sometimes Betty shows aggression by running toward a dog and growling. However, this behavior has gotten better over time and with continued love, and behavioral correction, it should continue to improve.
Although crate trained, Betty will sometimes pee on soft surfaces that are not in her crate, like other dogs’ beds. So, creating a regular potty schedule will be important for Betty, she does GREAT with a regular potty routine.
Betty has not been spayed yet as our vet was concerned about surgery at her size. She is currently on a weight management dog food, getting exercise and is losing weight slowly. The rescue will arrange to have her spayed once she hits a better weight at no cost to the adopter.

More about this rescue
We are a group of animal lovers banded together to rescue unwanted dogs and cats that are in shelters and pounds located throughout Idaho. Our non-profit rescue places each animal into our foster home program while we search for forever homes for them. We supply all vet care, food, toys, bedding; really anything they need while in our care.
We focus on those animals that are considered “hard to adopt” for various reasons; like kennel stress, having a black coat, being over 8 years old, etc. Often a foster home rather than a shelter environment helps give many of these animals a second chance at the life they deserve!
We relay on community donations and individuals willing to be foster care givers in order to continue our work.
