My story

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

This dog is being fostered in Dallas TX and must be adopted within the Dallas, North Central Texas or the southern Oklahoma area.

NAME: Ziva
GENDER: Female (Spayed)
AGE: About 2 Years
WEIGHT: About 6.5 Pounds
DOGS/CATS: Great with other small dogs, No with cats
CHILDREN: Should be good with children


Meet adorable Ziva. Ziva is a Chiweenie; (1/2 chihuahua and 1/2 dachshund ) who is looking for a forever home.

Ziva's beginnings with CRT started when one of our volunteers on a shopping trip overheard one of the employees announce that this girl had been found in the dumpster!!! She had obviously had pups recently so our volunteer ran out to the dumpster with a couple others to see if any puppies were there. But none were found. So sad that someone would think this was the way to dispose of an unwanted pet! Thankfully she is okay and we hope that her pups found good homes. We were thrilled to bring Ziva in to our program so we could help her find a wonderful forever home.

Ziva is a lovable playful girl who loves everyone, which makes no sense why she was found where she was. She is a little reserved when first meeting new people but once she gets to know you then you are her friend for life. She plays with the dogs in her foster home constantly so having a companion dog in the next home would be great. She chases the other dogs around the yard or the kitchen in a fun game of tag. When she is not playing with the other dogs Ziva will play with squeaky toys or will play fetch with you as long as you keep throwing the toy or ball. When you are done she will entertain herself.

Ziva is super smart. She is crate trained and all you have to say is "crate up" and she will go into her crate. She will crawl under the covers to snuggle with you or alone, either way, as long as she has her blankets. She will go outside on her own when she needs to do her business so a doggie door is a good idea! She walks okay on a leash but needs more practice. Ziva gets excited for her evening treats and forgets she needs to sit for them!

Ziva is a 2 year old Chiweenie with a "soft as silk" coat. This girl needs an active family. She is good with children but not with cats.
