Penny - Chihuahua Dog Available for Adoption in Portland, Oregon

MEET PENNY (AKA "FLEA" AKA "FWE-FWE") - THE ULTIMATE VELCRO DOG!

Warning: This 8-pound package of pure love may cause severe attachment syndrome!

Meet Penny, a precious pocket-sized princess who earned the nickname "Flea" not because she's pesky, but because once she attaches to you, good luck getting her off! (We already had a Penny, so Flea it is – though her fans also call her "Fwe-Fwe" because, let's be honest, everything about this girl is adorable.)

What you get with this tiny tornado of affection: Your very own shadow (seriously, bathroom breaks included), A 3-year-old professional cuddler with a PhD in Lap Warming, The world's smallest co-pilot (car rides = her favorite adventure), A social butterfly who makes friends with other dogs (after proper introductions, of course)

The fine print:


Weighs less than a gallon of milk but has the heart of a lion
Comes fully loaded: spayed, vaccinated, and dewormed
Traveled all the way from Texas to Oregon for love (talk about commitment!)
Unknown compatibility with cats and kids (but honestly, who could resist this face?)


Penny doesn't want much – just to be YOUR everything. Walking buddy? Check. Netflix companion? Double check. Personal foot warmer? Triple check.

Ready to be someone's whole world? Penny's been waiting since May 17th to find her forever person!

Apply today – this little love bug won't last long!
