Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Bonjour! If you’ve always wanted to see Paris but don’t care for a long trip, you’re in luck! I’m Paris, a 9 pound, 11 year-old female chihuahua, fully vetted, vaccinated, spayed, microchipped, and on heartworm preventative. I may not be fluent in French, but I definitely speak the language of love and am looking to give lessons to a lucky human!
I’m a friendly, easygoing girl who loves to cuddle more than anything. I will curl up in a ball and lie next to you for hours, although my favorite thing is to be held in your lap. I get along beautifully with people, other dogs, and even cats. I am also a lover of fine cuisine…or any cuisine, to be honest! I put on a show every time I get pets, I'm nimble on my feet and prance around in happiness!
I’m obviously a classic beauty, but, as a woman of a certain age, I confess my hearing and vision aren’t what they used to be. I can still see to recognize my foster mom, but I am almost deaf. I’m also working to overcome a traumatic experience: my previous owner was too ill to take care of me and I was trapped in a crate for five days with no food or water. Because of this experience, I struggled originally to understand going potty outside but I've got it now!
In spite of everything I've been through, I'm a brave and smart little lady! I've quickly learned to navigate my foster moms home, even the stairs to get on the couch or in bed at night. I'm a star at finding hidden treats, and easily follow my foster mom around the house or quickly find her if she's out of sight! I've gotten down that when the lights get turned on in the morning, its time to go outside for potty, and I totally let my foster mom put a diaper on me for the day when needed!
You’re never too old to learn a new language or to fall in love…so why not fall in love with a little dog who needs you? We’ll both be glad you took the leap!
Paris’s adoption fee is $250. If you are interested in adopting Paris, please DO NOT SEND A MESSAGE TO OUR RESCUE GROUP. We are too busy placing dogs in great homes to answer messages and inquiries through the listing site.
