Story
Angel is a very loving dog she is a bit shy, but she loves attention. She is not a very hyper dog she's very mellow chilled so I think that she would be in a home that's good for a kid that's a bit older I think if she's around little kids she'll be scared. She is a deer head chihuahua she's 3 years old she used to be my mom's dog but my mom was unable to care for her so I took her in but because of the dogs that I already have I'm not able to really give her the attention that she needs.
