My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

MPMR requires that all dogs in the home are spayed or neutered, up-to-date on vaccines and on heartworm prevention unless a dog has a verifiable medical reason as to why this cannot be done.

Immie
Estimated 9.5 years old
18 lbs
Chihuahua/Terrier mix
Fully vetted to include a dental

If you look up "Velcro" and "glue" in the dictionary, Immie's picture would be there. She loves her people and is someone's constant shadow.

Immie is the perfect, gentle girl. She was never reclaimed from animal control, and the reasoning behind that is unfathomable to us as she was clearly loved in the past. Immie is house trained, calm, walks nicely on a leash, and gets along with other dogs. She has shown no aggressive tendencies towards cats either or any desire to chase.

Immie loves food. She came to us very overweight, so her new owner will need to understand keeping portions and treats controlled is important as she has a bit of arthritis in her legs. Because of this, she chooses not to jump on furniture and hasn't figured out the steps. However, she will dance on her back legs to be picked up. She would gladly sleep with her person and likes burrowing under blankets.

Immie had a dental, and 13 teeth were removed. In the process, we learned some of the teeth were dead, and combining that with her odd use of the front right leg, it is possible she sustained some kind of injury to that side of her body in the past.

Because she has some initial separation anxiety somewhere new and can be vocal, apartment life may not be suitable unless someone works from home. This does subside within a few weeks.
