My story

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

Hi! My name is Elle and I am a 5-8 year old chihuahua. I was surrendered to a local animal shelter and am in need of a new family! My foster mom says I am the SWEETEST chihuahua she has ever met! I weigh about 12 pounds - so I'm not too big and not too small.

And as far as house training - for a chihuahua I do really well! My bladder is tiny so I like to have a chance to go outside often, but I always go potty right away! My foster mom also says I have something called luxating patella. This means my knee caps slip out of place sometimes. The veterinarian said it isn't severe enough to need surgery - thank goodness! But, I should go to a family that is OK helping me get on and off their laps and up into bed at night.

I have not met a human I didn't like and I get along well with all the other dogs and cats in my foster home. Because of my knees and tiny size I would benefit from a home with only older children who will know how to be careful with me. I would love a family who is home a lot or will take me places with them. I will go in my crate when I have to, but I prefer to be wherever my people are.

I have had all of my vaccines updated and am heart worm negative! I have been microchipped and recently had a teeth cleaning and a couple of bad teeth pulled. I am all set for my new (and last!!) forever home!

My adoption fee is $200.
