Gnocchi - Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in Salisbury, North Carolina

Hi there! My name is Gnocchi, and I am an 8-week-old female Chihuahua mix. I may be the size of a large bug or small guinea pig, but I have a BIG personality!

I am silly and love to play with other dogs, so I would do well with another dog in the home or as a single dog. Since I’m a puppy, I need training with basic obedience, potty training, and leash walking. I have lots of spunk and am very sweet. I can be a little shy at first (I mean, the world is HUGE), but once I’m in your lap, I will curl up and give you the sweetest puppy dog eyes you’ve ever seen.

If you’re ready for a little Gnocchi in your life, I’m your girl.

**Important**

I've had my first round of puppy vaccinations and deworming. I will be spayed and microchipped when I am old enough, both of which are covered by my adoption fee and will be scheduled by the sanctuary.

The cost to adopt is $250, and the adoption process begins with an Adoption Application that is located at: www.faithfulfriendsnc.org/adopt

Once your completed application has been reviewed the humans will contact you with questions and/or set an appointment for you to meet me. Thank you! Please read all guidelines before sending in an application. Do not reach out to the sanctuary about the status of your application, we will contact you if we are interested in setting up an appointment.
