Here's what the humans have to say about me:
3 LB CHIHUAHUA PUPPY IN TEXAS ALERT!!!
Hi there, my name is Nugget, I’m a girl, I weigh 3 lbs, and I am almost 12 weeks old. I was off to a very poor start in life, living on the street with a homeless person. I was covered in fleas, had a small wound on my back, had no regular puppy food, and had no vaccines to protect me from a myriad of puppy illnesses. Fortunately, I was for sale that day and my now-foster mom bought me for 4 Little Paws Rescue so I could live a wonderful life somewhere in or near Connecticut.
I’m a sweet little nugget, friendly and happy, a little bit sassy cuz I’m cute and I know it! I’m very affectionate, happily share puppy kisses and I am great at snuggling. I love to play and right now my best friend is a 4 lb puppy named Poppy. I love puppy toys and doggy treats and I’m a good eater, not picky at all. My foster mom says I’m mostly quiet, always gentle, and always sweet, and she knows I’ll be adopted in about 5 Minutes! I will be ready to leave Texas on 4/19 and a day and a half later I will be in your arms. :-)
