Tulip - Chihuahua and Rat Terrier Dog for Adoption in Aledo, Texas

Meet Tulip!
Tulip is a sweet Chihuahua mix with a gentle, endearing personality. She may be a little reserved when she first meets you, but once she feels comfortable, she's happy to be by your side.
Tulip loves being with people and will happily follow her person around. She does well with dogs of all sizes and is a lovely, easygoing little companion.
Tulip was saved from a high-kill shelter after she was at risk because she wouldn't walk on a leash. We suspect she may have experienced some leash trauma in her past. She does well being picked up and is much more comfortable when she can be carried rather than forced to walk on a leash. With patience, kindness, and someone willing to help her build confidence, we believe Tulip can continue to blossom.
