Chihuahua Dogs Available for Adoption in Albuquerque, New Mexico

Amber and Petey are a bonded mother and son and need to be adopted together. They are rescue dogs from southern New Mexico and we estimate Amber’s age at 6.5 years and Petey at 4.5 years. They are very affectionate and love to cuddle with their foster parents. They are also very intelligent, active, playful and fun-loving. They are house-trained and doggy-door trained. Amber and Petey need a home with a secure back yard (with high walls), and should be the only dogs in the home. They get along with male dogs, but Amber is a bit aggressive with other female dogs. If you would like to adopt both of these sweet, active, playful dogs, we look forward to receiving your application.
