Leeda - Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in Effingham, Illinois

MEET LEEDA
Some dogs act their age.
Leeda didn't get that memo.
At 8 to 9 years old, this adorable little lady still loves to play, explore, and be part of whatever fun is happening around her. She's settling beautifully into her foster home and proving that age is just a number when your heart is full of joy.
Leeda gets along well with other dogs and cats, and she's already showing everyone what a sweet, fun-loving companion she can be.
She's housebroken, though like many dogs adjusting to a new environment, she may have an occasional little oopsie while she settles in. She would do best with older children who can respect her space and help her continue feeling safe and comfortable.
Leeda is currently in a foster-to-adopt home while she finishes up some veterinary care. She still needs to be spayed and were also planning to have her eye evaluated.
What she lacks in perfect vision, she more than makes up for in personality. Just look at that face! Those spotted ears, that sweet smile, and that bandana practically scream ready for adventure.
Leeda may be considered a senior, but she's got plenty of pep left in her tiny paws and lots of love still waiting to share.
Could this little girl be the missing piece of someone's family?
