Dachshund and Chihuahua Dogs Available for Adoption in San Francisco, California

Meet Mandy — A Practically Perfect Little Lady

Mandy is a 4‑year‑old Long Haired Chihuahua–Doxie mix who checks all the boxes. Mandy is 7.5 lbs. She’s gentle, easygoing, and gets along beautifully with other small dogs — and she’s even cat‑friendly. Whether joining a small pack or soaking up the spotlight as an only dog, Mandy fits right in.

She adores her walks and will make you smile with her little “happy dance” the moment the harness comes out. Mandy is potty‑pad trained and is learning to also go outside during her walks. She’s a quiet girl who sleeps soundly through the night, content in her cozy dog bed beside yours.

Mandy is spayed, microchipped and current on vaccines.
