Story
Foxy is a 10 yr old 13 lb super sweet little girl. She loves playing with toys, getting belly rubs and being with her human. She loves to run so a fenced in yard would be great for her. She does good with other small dogs and would love a playmate. She may have potty accidents until she gets in a routine in new surroundings. She will potty outside when taken out and will occasionally use potty pads. She's a happy and fun companion who would love a forever home. She is spayed and up to date on vaccines.

Location: Pensacola, FLEddie Chihuahua Mix 12 pounds 3 years old Good with dogs: yes good with cats: Not sure good with kids: not sure Housetrained: Does well Crate trained: yes Leash Trained: Doing okay Eddie was hit by a car but nothing was broke (Thank goodness). He did have a small fracture in his tail that caused nerve issues and limited his walking but he is back to normal. He is such a sweet boy who is so shy and trying to figure out "dog life". He has started trusting more each day. He would do well in a home that will continue to work with his confidence and he loves car rides too. we do not allow electric fences/halo collars, runners/tethers or doggy doors  ##2761068##
