Chihuahua and Pug Dogs Available for Adoption in Alafaya, Florida

***Bonded – Lily and Rita are bonded and must be adopted together.***

Meet Lily and Rita! Hi, we're Lily and Rita. We're just two tiny girls trying to make our way in the big, wide world and find the family who will love us forever.

Rita– I'm a 5-lb Pug-Chihuahua blend and I'm 1 years old, as well. I'm a cuddly, clever, and kissy girl who loves being near my person, learning new tricks, and hanging out with best friend Lily!

Lily – I'm a 1-year-old Jack Russell blend who weighs just 4 lb. I am a gentle, shy, snuggly, and smart girl who wants nothing more than to be loved by my humans and to stay close by the side of my best friend, Rita.

Favorite Things: Both girls love to be held by their humans, which is easy since they are so tiny. Lilly even loves to sleep in her dog bed on the human bed! 24/7, they love to snuggle and cuddle right up to their human!

Training & Manners: Both Lily and Rita are smart cookies who are eager to learn and who are housetrained if let out frequently and have even picked up a few tricks. Rita will even sit for treats now! They both walk well on a leash and are well-behaved little passengers on car rides.

Health & Care: This healthy pair are up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped, and spayed. They just need their monthly flea and heartworm preventatives, like any dog. These low-maintenance gals won't even require much elaborate grooming.

Other Animals: Lily and Rita both do well with other calm dogs of all shapes and sizes. They haven't been observed around cats yet, but her foster thinks she'd get along with them, too.

Children: These two sweethearts have not been observed around children yet.

Ideal Home: Equally at home downtown or down on the farm, these two would do well in an apartment, condo, or single-family home.

Overall: Lily's and Rita's foster thinks they'd be a great blessing for any family with a heart big enough to take them both.
