Juno - Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in Corvallis, Oregon

Hi there! My name is Juno, and I'm a 7-year-old Chihuahua with 11 pounds of love, loyalty, and just the right amount of personality. If you're looking for a little companion who enjoys the quieter side of life, I think we should meet.

Life has taken me on a bit of an unexpected journey. I originally came to my current person as a foster after a family member could no longer keep me. When it became clear my first family wasn't coming back for me, my foster happily stepped up. Unfortunately, health issues now mean they can no longer care for me either. None of this is my fault-I'm simply hoping my next home will be my forever one.

At home, I'm an easy roommate. I spend most of my time relaxing indoors, but I also enjoy exploring a securely fenced yard. I sleep in bed with my person because, honestly, that's one of my favorite places to be! When my human needs to be away, I'm trustworthy enough to have free run of the house for up to about five hours.

I walk nicely on a loose leash and enjoy taking in the sights and smells without dragging you down the sidewalk. I've lived peacefully with cats and have done very well with them. I haven't had the chance to spend time around children or other dogs, so I'd be happiest in a calm home where I don't have to figure all of that out.

One thing you should know is that I like my meals to myself. I'm protective of my food, so it's best if everyone simply lets me eat in peace. It's an easy thing to manage, and I appreciate people who understand my boundaries.

My dream home is a relaxed, quiet place without children, where I can be someone's little shadow, warm the bed at night, and remind you every day that the best things really do come in small packages. If you're ready for a devoted little friend, I'll be waiting.
