About Hammy’s Breed:
Our best guess is that Hammy is a Chihuahua/Dachshund mix. The Chiweenie is a small, lively crossbreed between a Chihuahua and a Dachshund, known for its affectionate and playful personality. These pups typically weigh between 5–15 pounds and live 12–16 years, making them compact companions with a long lifespan. Chiweenies thrive on human companionship, often bonding closely with their favorite person, and are sometimes described as “Velcro dogs” because of their loyalty. They can be energetic and spunky, yet also love to cuddle, making them a great fit for families, singles, or seniors who want a devoted lap dog with a dash of sass.
Hammy is a sweet, loyal little guy who’s 99% potty trained (he may mark at first in a new place) and can be crated, though he’d much rather snuggle up with blankets and toys when left alone. He’s happiest when he’s with his people and doesn’t love being left for long, making him the perfect companion for someone who wants a devoted “Velcro” pup!
Hammy’s Highlights:
Hammy is a sweet soul who will bring endless joy, laughter, and love to his forever family. Whether he’s curled up under the covers, trotting beside you on a walk, or making you laugh with his funny antics, Hammy is ready to be your loyal little shadow and best friend!
