History: Chaparrita was rescued from the street while she was in labor. She had 11 puppies and has been a wonderful mother, but is now looking for her forever home.
Amazing Qualities:
Chaparrita means "petite," and this sweet girl has a big personality despite her name. She loves attention and affection, and clearly knows how good a scalp massage feels. After raising 11 puppies, she's more than ready for someone to spoil her.
Best Home:
Chaparrita would be a wonderful match for a family looking for a loving companion. She gets along well with children and loves affection. She is a bit nervous around other dogs, so a home where she can have some space from other dogs would be the best fit.
