Foxy - Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in Houston, Texas

Meet Foxy, a pint-sized survivor who earned her name by literally out-foxing a baby copperhead snake! She's now a total fan favorite in her foster home, and everyone is going to miss her terribly.

Foxy loves shadowing her foster dog siblings and acting as a personal bodyguard to her 3-year-old human foster brother. After a busy day of supervising, she is an absolute dream in her kennel and sleeps through the night without a peep.

She's doing fantastic with her training! She is working hard on housebreaking and does great with frequent potty breaks. She does currently have razor-sharp puppy shark teeth, but she's smart and easily redirected-just pop a chew toy in her mouth and your fingers are safe.

The only major rule for Foxy's new home is that she cannot be left outside alone. If you've seen The Proposal where Sandra Bullock has to battle a hawk for the family dog, you know exactly what we're trying to avoid! Because she's still small, she needs a human sidekick for all backyard adventures. This resilient, sweet, snake-defeating girl is so ready for her forever home!

Foxy is a Female Chihuahua that we estimate to be born around 3/21/2026. As of 6/3, she weighed 3.2 lbs.
