Meet Dulce Female DOB: October 14, 2025 Weight: 11 lbs Breed: Parson Russell Terrier / Chihuahua Mix Spayed (Fixed): Yes Vaccines: Up to Date Microchipped Healthy & Adoption-Ready Personality, Breed Info & Expectations Dulce is a sweet, affectionate young dog with a bright personality and a heart full of love. She enjoys being around people and loves being included in everyday family life. Whether she's following you around the house, playing with her favorite toys, or curling up beside you for a nap, Dulce is happiest when she's close to her people. She has a wonderful balance of playful energy and gentle companionship. Curious and eager to explore, Dulce enjoys discovering new places and meeting new friends, but she also has a calm, cuddly side that makes her a perfect snuggle buddy after a day of fun. As a Parson Russell Terrier / Chihuahua Mix, Dulce combines the intelligence, confidence, and adventurous spirit of the Parson Russell Terrier with the loyalty, affection, and people-oriented nature of the Chihuahua. This breed mix is often highly intelligent, alert, and eager to learn while forming strong bonds with their families. They thrive with positive reinforcement, regular exercise, and plenty of companionship. Dulce would thrive in a home prepared for: Daily companionship and family interaction Continued positive reinforcement training Regular walks and interactive play Mental stimulation and enrichment Structure, consistency, and routine A lifelong commitment to her emotional and physical well-being She is still a young dog with many wonderful years ahead of her and is ready to become a devoted member of a loving forever family. Training, Adjustment & What to Expect Like many rescue dogs, Dulce may need time to adjust to a new home, routine, and environment. Even friendly and social dogs benefit from patience and consistency during the transition period. Most rescue dogs arrive with varying levels of training, so adopters should be prepared to continue reinforcing household manners and routines. Dulce is intelligent, eager to please, and responds very well to positive reinforcement training. Dulce will benefit from: Positive reinforcement training Daily structure and routine Continued socialization and exposure Mental stimulation through interactive toys and games Regular exercise appropriate for her size Patience and consistency Please remember the 3-3-3 Rule: 3 days to decompress 3 weeks to learn your routine 3 months to fully feel at home With patience, love, and guidance, Dulce will blossom into a loyal, confident, and devoted lifelong companion. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Owning a dog is a lifelong commitment that includes training, exercise, companionship, and routine veterinary care. Dulce will need: Daily walks and interactive play Routine veterinary care and wellness exams Preventative care including flea, tick, and parasite prevention Proper nutrition and weight management Continued training and mental enrichment A safe, stable indoor living environment Because Dulce has Pug heritage, she may be more sensitive to hot weather than some breeds. During warm temperatures, she should have access to fresh water, shade, and avoid strenuous activity during the hottest parts of the day. Dulce is an indoor family dog and is not to be chained or left outside.
