Ripley - Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in Justin, Texas

Ripley is an energetic, sensitive girl who can have a hard time relaxing in the busy rescue environment. She experiences some kennel and separation anxiety and tends to stay alert when people are nearby, so shelter life can be overwhelming for her.

Once you get Ripley outside and spend some quiet time sitting with her, you start to see a much calmer side of her. She can be very reactive to everything happening around her, but we dont necessarily believe that means she has an issue with other dogs. She recently had puppies and has been through a lot of changes, so she may simply need some time, consistency, and a calmer environment to decompress.

We believe the right home could give Ripley the stability and reassurance she needs to settle in and show more of her true personality.
