Chia is a TINY chihuahua! She’s is about 5-6 years old and weighs 5 pounds. She takes time to adjust to new people and new environments. Once comfortable, her kennel is her safe space when left open, but she prefers to follow around & cuddle both her people and her housemates. Chia Seed, despite her small size and our human desire to dress her up, hates clothing! Her foster mom has put her in different sweaters, collar, harnesses, and outfits and honestly, she hates all of them. She will tolerate wearing them for a short period of time, but she tries vigorously to get them off of her.
Chia Seed came to us with a number of other Chihuahua and Chihuahua mixes earlier in the year from a hoarding case after her original owner passed away. She was living outside of the abandoned house in the trash and had to fend for herself with the other dogs.
Despite this, she is extremely sweet and matches her person’s energy. She loves cuddles and turns into a ball of energy once her person returns home.
She is still working a dual-method potty training (outside & potty pads), since she cannot hold her bladder for long periods of time due to her size.
Chia Seed can be cage reactive to new people, new four-legged friends, and other unfamiliar stimuli.
She got a dental with us, but she has ongoing dental disease that will need yearly dentals and continuous care/monitoring.
She is looking for the best home!

More about this rescue
The Fayette County Humane Society (FCHS), staffed entirely by volunteers, is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization supported entirely by individual and corporate donations. Because we do not have a shelter, all of the animals we rescue live in temporary foster homes until they are adopted. We believe that all companion pets have intrinsic value and should be treated with the reverence and care they deserve.
