Kia - Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in Tucson, Arizona

Looking for a serene companion with a heart of gold? This sweet 7-year-old Chihuahua mix has overcome incredible odds after surviving a gunshot wound while pregnant—and though she tragically lost her babies, her spirit remains unbroken. Kia is the ultimate gentle soul, overflowing with gratitude simply to be safe and loved. Her big, sappy eyes will melt your heart in an instant, though she sometimes needs just a little reassurance to know it's okay to ask for the human affection she deeply craves.

Fully spayed, microchipped, and up to date on all her vaccines, Kia is completely ready to move into a quiet forever home that matches her calm, peaceful energy. She gets along wonderfully with humans and dogs of all sizes as long as they respect her serene vibe (cats are still a mystery for now!). Calm and impeccably well-mannered, she has done great without needing a kennel and loves nothing more than being cradled in your arms, though she'll just need a little patient time to learn her new potty routine. If you have room in your life for a resilient, loving shadow, Kia is ready to fill your home with warmth!
