My story

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

Animal Profile: Vixen is an adorable chihuahua mix who is estimated to be around 7 years old and weighs ~18lbs. She was rescued from Moreno Valley shelter in CA. 

Foster Update: Vixen's foster mom shares, "She is a sweet girl who LOVES her humans, toys, toys and more toys and treats! She is settling in well, and has been pretty good with her potty habits and we are working on teaching her recall. She does just fine around our 2 dogs. She has played a few times with one of them and she is pretty respectful with the other one who doesn't really want anything to do with her, but she is inquisitive so it may take her a few times to learn not every pup is interested in engaging. Vixen doesn't mind being in her crate for meals, bedtime, etc. It isn't uncommon to catch Vixen playing with her toys by herself, but you may need to toss it once in a while. 

It's her facial expressions that are truly priceless! She is a sweet, funny, and playful girl that is excited to find a forever family of her own. Because Vixen has shown a tendency to play with hands (we are working on this), she would do best in a home without young kids.
