Story
Negra is a young Chihuahua mix with a gentle soul and a whole lot of love to give. Like many Chihuahuas, she can be a little nervous at first, especially in new situations, but once she feels safe, her true personality shines through. She’s sweet, loyal, and deeply people-oriented — the kind of dog who forms strong bonds and wants nothing more than to be close to her person. Negra has that classic Chihuahua sensitivity and awareness, making her very tuned in to the emotions around her. With a bit of patience and reassurance, she relaxes quickly and shows just how lovely and affectionate she really is. Negra would do beautifully in a calm, loving home where she can build confidence at her own pace and be cherished for the gentle, devoted companion she is. 💛
