HI, i’m Biscotti. I am a 11 week old one and a half pound teacup Chihuahua. I am going to be super tiny full grown most likely under 6 pounds so it is important that anyone interested in adopting me has experience or knows the importance of my health and care requirements as a teacup Chihuahua. I cannot go outside not in your front/backyard or to the store or anywhere until I am 16 weeks of age! This is a non-negotiable requirement until I have had all 3 of my Puppy boosters and my rabies vaccine. 24 hours after that is completed on my 16 week vaccine Appointment I can go outside, but it is important that I am never left outside alone and unsupervised. I am the easiest target for birds of prey. I am so tiny I can fit in any size purse, but I am also so tiny that a falcon or a hawk will see me as a midday snack and will swoop down and grab me without hesitation! 😱 I was abandoned in a box at the end of a busy street with my brother biscoff, and a volunteer with the rescue picked me and my brother up covered in fleas and ticks while we were skin and bones infested with parasites, and severely dehydrated I also had part of my eye protruding out due to an unknown injury I sustained, which was probably why we were dumped in the box and left to die. It was so hot that day and we were close to giving up, but thankfully, with God‘s mercy we were found in Time and she brought us to the rescue immediately for Iv fluid treatment, deworming, a flea and tick dip, emergency eye care for myself and our first meal in who knows how long! We were absolute troopers and we knew the fight would be worth it, I could not wait to get out of isolation so I could run and play and socialize with all the other animals. We are not bonded I honestly prefer to spend more time with my rescuer than I do with my own brother, but I also prefer to spend more time with other dogs than my brother has. He is very calm and mellow whereas I am very playful and social. I love children as long as the children aren’t too rough and I like cats even if the cats don’t like me lol I love to cuddle and I live to be held I will run and play, but I’m a tiny little rambunctious puppy, so I must be kept in a safe environment because I can disappear under anything. I am the prince of hide and seek. I do have mild separation anxiety. I don’t like being left completely alone so someone who is able to be with me the majority of the day is ideal or someone who has another companion to keep me company would be ideal as well. it’s not a requirement, but just know you will have to work with my separation anxiety as I am used to my rescuer being home 24 seven to take care of me and all the other rescue friends. I will remain on puppy kibble until I am 8 to 10 months old due to my tiny size and need for more nutrients in my food but then I can transition into small bites or small dog food. If you’ve always wanted a teacup look no further because I am ready for a home of my own if you’re interested in making me part of your family, please contact my rescuer via TEXT OR EMAIL ONLY to schedule a day to come and meet me. I am approved for same-day adoption so when you fall in love with me, you can take me home same day! I look forward to meeting you!
