My story

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

Meet Winnie

Name: Winnie
Breed: Chihuahua
Gender: Male
Age: 4 years old DOB: 1/3/2022
Weight: 10 pounds
Health: Healthy


Winnie’s Personality

Winnie is a happy, bright little guy with a big personality and an even bigger heart. He’s cheerful, affectionate, and loves being close to his people. True to his Chihuahua charm, Winnie forms strong bonds and enjoys being part of your daily routine—whether that’s following you around the house, curling up beside you, or proudly greeting you at the door. He has a playful spark, a sweet snuggly side, and a joyful energy that lights up the room.


Breed Info: Chihuahua

  • Loyal and deeply devoted to their humans

  • Intelligent, alert, and expressive

  • Small size but big personality

  • Thrive on companionship and routine

Chihuahuas are wonderful companions for those who enjoy close bonds and a dog that truly becomes their shadow.


Owner Responsibilities

Adopting Winnie means committing to:

  • Daily love, attention, and companionship

  • Consistent routines and gentle training

  • Safe handling due to his small size

  • Proper nutrition and regular exercise

  • Lifelong veterinary care and preventive health


Things to Consider Before Adopting

  • Do you have time each day for bonding and care?

  • Are pets allowed where you live now and in the future?

  • Can you commit financially to food, vet care, and emergencies?

  • Are you prepared for a dog who wants to be close and involved?

  • Is everyone in the household respectful of a small dog’s needs?

Adoption is a lifelong promise, not a short-term decision.


⏳ The 3-3-3 Rule (Important to Know)

Rescue dogs need time to fully adjust:

  • First 3 days: Winnie may feel overwhelmed and need quiet reassurance

  • First 3 weeks: He’ll begin learning your routine and building trust

  • First 3 months: He’ll feel secure, confident, and truly at home

Patience and consistency help him blossom.


Vet Care Reminder

Although Winnie is healthy, adopters should take him to their own veterinarian as soon as possible after adoption to establish care and continue routine wellness.


Why Winnie Will Be a Great Addition to Your Family

Winnie is the kind of dog who fills your home with warmth, laughter, and love. He offers constant companionship, joyful energy, and a loyal heart that just wants to belong. If you’re looking for a small dog with a sunny spirit and endless affection, Winnie is ready to be your forever friend—and he’s excited to love you for life.
