Papillon and Chihuahua Dogs Available for Adoption

Tinkerbell is a special kind of Diva, looking for the perfect home who will adore her and spoil her like she deserves.

She is good with other dogs but takes a little time to warm up to them and new people as well. Treats are the fastest way to her heart and a warm lap with a blanket.

She walks fast on a leash and enjoys being out, especially going through Starbucks to get a pup cup. She shows her Chihuahua heritage by barking at strangers, and choosing to potty on pads inside when the weather is rainy or too cold. She is house broken with another doggie friend to show her the way and a fenced in yard would be great for her as she does not enjoy pottying on leash.

She comes with a few outfits and beds, plus designer leash and harness to match her Diva personality.

She is good with older kids and adults and will do best in a home that has someone home more often than not. She does great gated in the kitchen when her foster family is at work but is over the moon when they return. She needs lots of love, snuggles and warm lap and a playful laid back doggie friend closer to her size.
