Here's what the humans have to say about me:
I rescued this little Chihuahua from an older couple's home who are unable to care for her. They had five Chihuahuas locked in a room 24/7. The dogs urinated and defecated in that room and lived in their own filth for years. I brought this little one home one week ago. She is SUPER friendly but just a bit skittish, understandably so. She is not fully potty trained yet. I have three other dogs and she is learning from them about where to go, but still is not fully potty trained.
She currently has a skin condition that requires her to have medicated baths 2-3 times a week. Her condition is due to her being covered in her own urine and feces for years :( She is also finishing a course of antibiotics for an ear infection.
I would keep her if I didn't already have three other dogs.
I think she needs to be with someone who can dedicate more time to her. I cannot since I do work and also have a sick dog to care for. She gets along well with my other dogs.
