Chihuahua and Whippet Dogs Available for Adoption in Austin, Texas

LaLa was found as a stray in a rural town and taken to a shelter we help. We had to rescue her quickly, because the shelter was full. One of our selfless fosters agreed to bring LaLa into her home, so we were able to save her life. She has been in our care for 1 month, and now she’s ready for her forever person!

LaLa is a very cuddly girl and she loves to be held. She follows her foster around the house and would absolutely love to be a lap dog. She gives kisses and likes treats. LaLa gets along with other dogs of all ages and sizes, and she also cat friendly.

We think LaLa is a Chihuahua and Terrier mix. She is 1 year old and weighs 14 pounds. She is spayed, up to date on all her vaccinations, microchipped, and heartworm negative. If you're looking for a cuddly girl to add to your family, we hope you’ll consider LaLa.

LaLa can arrive in Chester, Virginia on June 5. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out the application found here: https://throwadogabone.org/adopt.
