My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
"Hello, all of you nice people. My name is MERCEDES, and I'm a small and precious sweetheart who's looking for a nice comfy lap to call my own. Do you have a lap that needs a little snuggle bug to occupy it? I'm ready for the job! I'm a four-year-old Chihuahua, and I'm really quite overwhelmed here at the shelter. I'd feel so much better if I could live in a quiet adult home. I'd probably be comfortable in a home with older kids, too, as long as they're not rambunctious and they're considerate of me. I'll need a loving and patient owner who understands that once I'm comfortable, I'll be the most faithful friend of all time. Also, I like to be around other nice doggies. I've already been house trained, so I'm ready to move in to my forever home. Won't you please come visit me at the El Cajon Animal Shelter? Just wait until you see how cute I am. I'm hoping that you'll find me irresistible. Love, Mercedes"
