Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Irene is a sweet and playful little girl. She is a 10 pound tan and white Chihuahua mix who is 4 years old. She has medium length hair. Irene is very social and lively. She quickly warms up to new people and other dogs. She likes to play and would love a fenced yard and other small dogs in her new home to keep her busy.
Irene came to us with another 5 Chihuahua’s who were all rescued from a hoarding situation. There were many others taken from this house as well. The dogs were well treated, there were just too many of them for the people to handle and properly care for. Irene likes people and will most likely lick your nose at the first meeting. She likes to play with dog toys and is good with children. She is a happy little dog who will make you smile with her playfulness and sunny disposition. She is getting used to being on a leash but wants to stay with her people. At the end of the day she would love to curl up on the couch and snuggle on a warm lap.
Irene is up to date on vaccinations, spayed, microchipped and heartworm tested. Evey is mostly housetrained and is learning from the other dogs. She is used to being crated when her people are away.
