Chihuahua and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption

She is seriously the easiest girl … kids, cats, people, car, leash, crate, cuddles, independent, quiet, loving and the perfect size !!!! Apply today to adopt Miss Mikela …. (Fostered in Rockland County NY)

Meet Mikela: Your New Best Friend!

Introducing Mikela, tall and leggy girl with a heart full of sweetness! This dark beauty truly has it all: she's quiet, gentle, and excels in the car and on the leash. Mikela adjusts effortlessly to new environments and gets along wonderfully with both cats and dogs—though she can be quite wary of vacuums (and honestly, who isn’t?).

Mikela is a charming Chihuahua mix; her exact lineage is a mystery, but what we do know is that she is house-trained, crate-trained, and absolutely adores everyone she meets. Spayed, vaccinated, healthy, and happy, she was born in June 2025 and currently weighs in at a perfect 14 pounds.

Mikela would thrive in a home with another dog or one where she can socialize and play with her furry friends, as she enjoys the company immensely.

Currently being fostered in Congers, NY, Mikela is ready for meet and greets with approved families.

The Chihuahua is a small breed famous for its confidence, loyalty, and big personality, despite its tiny size. Originating from Mexico, these dogs are known for their large, expressive eyes and alert, curious nature. Chihuahuas make excellent companions, forming strong bonds with their owners and displaying a protective nature. They come in a variety of coat colors and patterns, with both long and short coats, making them a diverse and adorable addition to any family.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
