Chihuahua and Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Millcreek, Utah

Meet Pixie Stix!
Pixie Stix is an adorable, 14-pound Chihuahua/Terrier mix who is almost 5 years old and as sweet as her name suggests. This happy, affectionate little girl loves nothing more than getting your attention, soaking up pets, and exploring the backyard. She can be a bit reserved at first, but she warms up quickly and isn't fearful--just a gentle soul who likes to take a moment to get to know you.

In the home, Pixie Stix has excellent manners. She's fully house trained, does fine in a crate (though she may bark at first), and is mostly quiet, but she will whine and bark when she needs something. She hasn't had much leash experience, but she's willing and would benefit from regular walks to help her trim down a bit. In the car she wants to sit in your lap, so a crate or a way to secure her is best., She gets along with dogs of all sizes, and mostly does her own thing. Cats, however, are a little too interesting for her--she wants to play and doesn't always pick up on their boundaries--so a cat-free home is recommended.

Pixie Stix enjoys lounging, exploring the yard, and being close to her people. She would thrive in a home where she gets plenty of attention and companionship. Whether she's your one-and-only or joining another friendly dog, she'll fit right in. Her signature move is staring up at you with her irresistible puppy-dog eyes, asking for love, and she truly shines when she's spending time with her humans.

If you're looking for a sweet, easygoing companion who just wants to be loved, Pixie Stix is ready to wiggle her way into your heart.
