Story
Meet Katy Perry! Katy is a super chill 7 year-old, 17 pound Chihuahua mix.
If you're looking for a relaxed companion to "Netflix and chill," Katy might just be your girl! She's a total homebody who is content to relax in bed with her family. She's not the clingy type, she's happy for you to come and go as you please, and she'll welcome you back with butt wiggles and an invitation for some light scratches! However, she can get nervous and might let you know if you get too familiar too fast, and she probably wouldn't like a home with young children who might get in her space.
Katy doesn't like going on walks, especially on city sidewalks, and would rather just explore your apartment. In her foster home (apartment in the city), she's currently using wee-wee pads. We think she'd probably be most comfy on a quiet patch of grass in the backyard, but her foster family hasn't been in a position to test that.
Katy has quite an appetite - she loves her kibble, liver treats, and most of all cheese. She's a clever girl and figured out a snuffle mat on her first try!
If you're looking for a chill, small dog for a little gentle cuddling, Katy might just be your perfect match!
Katy is currently being fostered in Manhattan, NY, and her adoption fee is $500.
To adopt this animal, please visit https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt
All of our animals come spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, are microchipped, heartworm negative, current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention, dewormed, and treated for any ailments found upon veterinary examination. The adoption fee covers a portion of these services, and makes it possible for us to continue rescuing animals.
For more information on the adoption fees and the adoption process, please complete our adoption application here: https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt - an application allows us to get to know your family better so we can assess whether the animal you are interested in is a good match for your home. An application does not obligate you to adopt. Please understand that due to the volume of applications some animals receive, we are unable to contact all applicants. If your application is considered a good fit for the animal you are interested in, or even a different pet, a volunteer will give you a call as soon as possible.
We are a foster based rescue and do not have a shelter location where animals can be seen during the week. Please see our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/LouiesLegacy for our weekly adoption album if you are interested in meeting an animal in person. Not all animals attend every adoption event, please check our Facebook page for animal event times and locations before you make a trip to meet a specific animal.
