Story
Tiny little Foxie is about as cute as they come! She's a young (1 yr old) long haired chihuahua weighing in just under four pounds. What she lacks in size, she makes up for with her fun-loving personality and overall sweet disposition. She is a perfect little companion, who will snuggle up with you on the couch as long as you'd like. She also loves to play with toys. Foxie is a dog that needs just a little while to settle in, and then it'll seem like she's always been there. She loves having a routine, and will roll right into yours. She gets along great with people, other dogs and cats, and even has a turtle in her foster home! Requirement for Foxie's forever home include: * she needs at least one other dog small dog for companionship; other larger dogs in the home are fine, but she's too nervous to play with them. And she loves to play! * Little kids make her nervous, although occasional supervised visitors would be fine. Her adopter should have no children under the age of ten; any older kids need to be respectful of her tiny size. Aside from those must-haves, Foxie would love a home where she gets to go on adventures, including leash walks and errands out-and-about in town. She enjoys meeting new people and with her tiny size, would be easy to take with you wherever dogs are permitted. With her personality, she'd rather be with you than alone, so a stay-at-home or work-from-home person would be wonderful as well. That said, her adopter should plan on providing her with a routine that will help her feel stable and safe, as well as encourage her independence so she doesn't develop separation anxiety. Foxie is still working on her house manners. She will use potty pads and will potty on leash walks as well, which is part of the reason we recommend regular leash walks to get her into a good routine. She is being fostered in Sebastian, FL, and is spayed, vaccinated, chipped, and heart worm negative. If you think your home is a good fit for Foxie, we welcome you to apply.September 23, 2023, 5:34 pm
