My story

Dr Mantis Toboggan is a 13 year old chihuahua who is 9 lbs.
He loves his people and loves to be cuddled!
Mantis does well with small dogs, but he is not a fan of dogs bigger than he is.
He currently lives with other chihuahuas and does well with them.
Mantis is house trained, too!
He walks well on a leash and rides well in the car.
He doesn't have many teeth, so he eats wet food.
He loves a good cozy bed and snuggling with his humans.

Why adoption is a great option

Dr Mantis Toboggan, a Culver City Chihuahua dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Chihuahua for sale in Culver City, or seeking a Chihuahua dog from a breeder in Culver City.

  1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in Culver City already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
  2. On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Culver City breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
  3. You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Chihuahua breeders who help with Chihuahua rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Culver City paves the way for another one to be saved.
