Chihuahua Dogs Available for Adoption

PLEASE NOTE: This dog is currently out of state but will be transported to Massachusetts shortly with no additional travel costs. Roughly 90% of our dogs are adopted prior to their transport up to MA and 10% are adopted locally.

Meet Penny! Penny is approximately 5 years, 8 lbs and likely has some chihuahua in her mix! In her foster home, she is doing great with house-training, has not been crated and has minimal experience walking on leash, She could go to a home with other dogs, and kids 10+. No apartments please due to barking.

Her foster says, "If you are searching for a pint sized bestie that won't get fur all over your furniture or bed Penny is your gal! She likes dog beds, blankies, and funny enough shelves with blankies are her favorite. She does not jump on the furniture and will not stay in my bed at night at all. Penny will pull at your heart strings with her bestest sad puppy face when you leave, but will always greet you with the cutest little dance and tail wag when you come home to her! She would do great in a home where she could be the main attraction! She will be your fierce lion, and your most favorite dinner date. Penny does have an opinion, and a voice. She expresses her knowledge of both regularly. Unless your neighbors are far away, Penny was not made for apartment/condo dwelling. Penny would be fine with some Fresh air therapy, but would like to keep her therapy sessions to a minimum, unless you don't mind carrying her. Now, for her sake I would like whoever picks her sweet little face, that if you are that person who likes to carry and hold and walk around with and do everything with your buddy kind of person, and don't mind some conversations, you are going to be the perfect person for her. She absolutely LOVES if you just hold her and walk around with her in your arms/arm/hand/would probably love a little puppy carrier that goes over your shoulders. Penny does just fine when introduced to other dogs, shes just not a player with dogs."

She is available for adoption in N Dartmouth on February 27th. Please fill out an application on our website at https://www.browndogcoalition.com/adoptable as a first step.
