Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Attention All Chihuahua Lovers!
Meet The Shrimpies, our darling little bonded Chihuahuas. Due to years of abuse, neglect and abandonment, Susie and Paco have become inseparable. They long to be loved and just need someone kind and patient to give them a couple of days to build trust. Once they feel safe, they will love you beyond words. They will walk through fire for you! Susie is shy, sensitive and loves being held, while Paco is more outgoing, free spirited and confident, but equally as affectionate. They will watch you intently as you walk around the apt hoping to see a sign of encouragement so they can come over and cuddle. They are velcro dogs who are happiest being close to their person. The Shrimpies are about 8 years old and together they weigh only 10 lbs. It’s hard to believe how much love their little hearts hold. For Chihuahua lovers, they are a dream. Both are smart, love positive reinforcements (e.g treats! ) and love to please. They are currently living in a group foster home where they do well with all the other rescues, but it’s overcrowded and they desperately need a home of their own. Susie loves to sleep under the covers while brother Paco keeps an eye on things. They are like Yin and Yang but long for a person of their own to love. We have taken very good care of them since they arrived, and both pups are crate trained, healthy and fully vetted, They are also spay/neutered, microchipped and up to date on their shots. If you can open your heart and home up to these two gentle loving souls, you will not only change their lives for the better, but your own as well. More loyal and loving dogs you will never find.
