My name is Fancy!

Fancy is a Chihuahua and Mini American Shepard mix. She is almost 3 years old and weighs 20 pounds. She has beautiful brindle coloring and has a petite but taller body. Fancy was on the euthanasia list (pregnant) in a shelter in Texas due to space constraints. She had 4 puppies at the end of August right after we sprang her. She is very happy, kind, gentle, and playful. She loves to play with other happy playful dogs. She is very much a puppy at heart and enjoys toys. Now that dhe is done being g a mama, she gets very excited to play with her babies especially when she’s outside! Another favorite past time is chasing squirrels and bunnies. She is completely potty trained and loves going in and out the doggy door on her own. She loves human contact and enjoys curling up on the couch to snuggle, hopefully touching her person. She also loves to cuddle up on the bed at night to sleep. Fancy wants to be wherever her human is. She has a very sweet, laid-back disposition. Fancy enjoys kisses and hugs as well as trying to pull her foster mom’s socks off her feet! She should do well with dog savvy cats but she thinks they are fun to chase and bark at. She loves older kids 10+ and has not been tested around younger children. Fancy would do best with a secure fenced yard. While she appreciates daily walks and is learning to be good on a leash, she loves to run with the zoomies. Fancy is a flight risk due to her curiosity and her love of running; she currently does not have good recall. She needs a secure privacy fence as she can jump over 3 ½ feet high. Fancy wants a home with humans who will include her in their daily activities and talk to her. Fancy is spayed, utd on vaccs, chipped, and HW-. She was infested with ticks while living in Texas and tests slightly positive for Ehrlichia and anaplasmosis but has been asymptomatic.  These are non contagious tick borne diseases. Her new family should monitor her for any signs of lameness, fever, or lethargy. If she exhibits those symptoms she needs an immediate visit to the vet. This is something that will have to be monitored for the rest of her life. She may never have these symptoms, then again, she could; there isn’t any way to predict it. Her veterinarians have stated that there isn’t any reason she can’t live a full happy life regardless.
