Chiquita Litter COH - Chihuahua and Terrier Dog for Adoption in Inglewood, California

The Chiquita boys COH are 10 week old Chihuahua & Terrier Mixes who are ready to leave their difficult beginning behind and find families they can grow up with. They came alongside their mom, Chiquita, from a hoarding situation, and now they’re discovering what it feels like to have choices, attention, and people cheering them on.

Puppyhood for these boys means learning the household routine, investigating every corner they can reach, getting acquainted with their toys, and turning ordinary moments into reasons to wag their tails. They’re good with kids, dogs, and cats, too.

They’ll need adopters ready for the fun—and responsibility—of raising a puppy, from training and socialization to all those little everyday lessons. In return, you’ll have the chance to watch one of these boys become the dog he was always meant to be.

If you have room in your home for a puppy and room in your heart for a new family member, one of the Chiquita boys would love to meet you.
