Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Introducing Tiny Dancer!
It's hard to believe, but this tiny girl acts like she's the biggest of the litter! As soon as she learned to walk, she picked out the largest puppy (Buster) and made him her main target to jump on and bother! Sweet Buster just let her do it and only reprimanded her with a return nip if she pulled on his ears too hard. Sharp puppy teeth hurt, you know! She is FAST as lightning and precautions will have to be taken to save this little rocket from darting in or out of where she shouldn't be heading.
Tiny has the most adorable white tip on the end of her tail. It's usually all you see as she flies by! She likes (and doesn't like) being held depending upon what she thinks she wants to be doing at that particular moment. She's always on a mission - the mark of a truly inquisitive mind and highly intelligent dog. She'll probably start a dog treat company or run for office ~ or both. All that said, sometimes she is a typical Chihuahua and shakes just like all of them have a reputation for doing. No worries, it passes. Just give her some love and support and she's back to whatever gets her attention next. Barking is not something she likes to do but she will do it if she needs to get her point across to one of her siblings.
We waited until she reached 4 lbs to have her spay appointment set and she will be going for the surgery on October 2nd. After her recovery time, she can start her journey to a forever home. Due to her very small size, we would like any children in the home to be dog savvy and over the age of 5.
Likes: FREEDOM! Leaping out of foster Mom's arms just before she tries to carefully set her down... Jumping on Buster Jumping on Amelia Jumping on Sibbie Jumping on B-Boy Jumping on Twinkle
Dislikes: Not being allowed to JUMP! The very thought of being a "purse dog" - you know what's in the bottom of most purses? Old gum? Perfume? Yuck! Football
