My story

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

Rizzo is an adorable 10 weeks Chihuahua/Dachshund puppy. She is very tiny weighing only 1.5 pounds. She was owner surrendered to the Emergency clinic in Round Rock because she was sick. She was treated in hospital for vomiting, diarrhea, coccidia, and severe hypoglycemia. She was dewormed and had her first vaccine. She is now doing well and is full of energy. She loves belly rubs and cuddling and playing with toys and other dogs. She sleeps in her crate through the night. She has to be fed every 6 hours until she is 4 months old to prevent another episode of low blood sugar.
