Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Tiny Tim and Lucy. This brother and sister duo came to us as 3-month-old puppies when one of our volunteers was at a shelter picking up another pup. She saw these little Chihuahuas shaking in fear and knew they weren’t staying in a loud shelter for a second longer. Truthfully we figured they’d be an easy placement. They were adorable little pups!
Two years have come and gone and still Lucy and Tim wait for their home. They are a special pair that have a bond that simply cannot be broken. They look for each other when they’re apart and sleep completely cuddled up at night. For that reason, we will only adopt them out together. Would it be easier to find a home for each separately? Probably. But it wouldn’t be right. They’re best friends for life.
Tim and Lucy have different personalities that complement each other perfectly. Lucy is super sweet and loves to cuddle. She has potentially the greatest snaggle tooth in the history of snaggle teeth and likes to pretend she’s a circus performer by standing on her back legs and twirling. Her core strength is impressive! When new friends come over she likes to try out their laps immediately. Lucy bonds strongly with her people.
Tiny Tim is just the most fun guy ever! He is content to be out in the sun playing fetch for hours. He’s also a constant source of inspiration. Tim is missing a rear leg and uses his other back leg as a “pogo stick.” He does have a cart for long distances, but he doesn’t typically need it. Tim wears a belly band without any complaint and eats prescription food. Aside from those small nuances, he’s just a normal dog that gives 100x the love back to you than you could ever give him.
Tim and Lucy are the kind of pups that will change your life forever. They want nothing more from you than love, a ball throw here and there, and a spot on your couch and in your heart. We know their special person is out there. If you have room in your home and in your heart for two little pups, please fill out our application and learn more about them. You won’t regret it!
