Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Oreo is a very sweet female Chihuahua/mix who is approximately 6 years old and weighs 9 pounds. She was turned into a shelter by her family. The experience was traumatic for her and she was absolutely terrified to be handled. When anyone came near her she would scream in fear. With love and patience, those days are behind her. She has come a long way since being in foster care and now enjoys being picked up and held. Actually, she has turned into a wonderful cuddle bunny who loves nothing more than to be loved on and made to feel like she is a very special girl. One of her favorite things is to burrow under the bed covers and curl right up next to you. She will sleep like this all night long. She loves other dogs and running in the yard, and boy can she run! Oreo has beautiful long legs and this girl can cover a lot of ground. Because Oreo loves to run, a fenced in yard is a requirement for this girl. Oreo is without a doubt the sweetest foster dog I have ever cared for. All this little girl wants to do is to please you. She is housetrained and is attentive to what you ask of her. Because of Oreo's prior fear issues, I expect she will have an adjustment period when she goes to a new home. Therefore, any potential adopter must be willing to help Oreo with any fear issues that may arise. For instance, she does well when a new female human comes into my home, but if a man comes in, she will bark until they are introduced properly. It doesn't take long before she is sitting in their lap.
Oreo has been spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, is heartworm negative and on prevention and has had a dental. She is a healthy, happy little girl with lots of love to offer.
If you have any questions about Oreo, please email her foster Mom at chihuahuacottage@yahoo.com.
Reference checks, phone interview, and a home visit are required prior to all adoptions.
Thank you.
