This spunky little 8-month-old chi mix may be small, but her personality is BIG! She’s a compact bundle of energy and affection who will keep you smiling with her playful antics.

Chiquita was originally found as a stray with her two sisters—likely dumped—but thanks to kind-hearted rescuers in Minnesota, she made her way to safety and into a shelter. She was adopted once, but returned, and now she’s still searching for her forever home.

Let’s be honest—she’s a Chihuahua mix... so yes, she barks! That just means she’s not a “shared walls” kind of girl. But beyond that, she’s pretty close to perfect.

What makes Chiquita special:

Loves playing with other dogs (a doggie sibling would be a dream!)
Total cuddle bug—she’ll snuggle right up next to you at night
Melts hearts when she lifts her little front paws asking to be picked up
Generous with kisses and love

She’s still very much a puppy, which means she can get a little nippy when she’s excited—especially when she hasn’t seen you in a while and just has to show you how much she missed you. With some continued training and consistency, she’ll grow out of it.

She’s doing well with potty training, too—just remember, with a peanut-sized body sometimes comes a peanut-sized brain, so she may need gentle reminders.

Chiquita is full of love, personality, and charm. All she needs now is someone willing to give her a little patience, a lot of love, and a place to call home. Interested in adopting this lovable animal? Please go to our website www.wagsmn.org and fill out an Adoption Application. Once the application is processed, a Wags representative will contact you, answer any questions you may have, and set up a time/location for a meet and greet! A home visit is required prior to adoption.

Thank you for choosing to adopt!
