Description
Dog Breed: Corgi / Chihuahua / Mixed (medium coat). At 9 years old and 16 lbs., Wheezy was surrendered to the shelter when her owner became ill and could no longer care for her. To say she was scared is an understatement. Wheezy was very happy to get out of the shelter with us and simply cuddled up for a nice ride home. Wheezy is good with both dogs and cats. She is well-behaved in the home and can be left home without being destructive. The best news of all, she is housebroken. She is a great girl who is looking for a second chance with a family of her own. Wheezy has been vaccinated, spayed, microchipped and had a dental done where they needed to remove several of her teeth. Wheezy has recently been diagnosed with Cushing disease which is being treated with daily medication. OUR RESCUE WILL COVER THE COST OF HER MEDICATION. She is doing great with it and will make a wonderful pet for a lucky family.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Chi-Corgi, a delightful hybrid resulting from the cross between a Chihuahua and a Pembroke Welsh Corgi, is a relatively new designer breed gaining popularity. Originating from the desire to combine the Corgi's charming personality with the Chihuahua's smaller stature, these dogs typically inherit a mix of traits from both parents. Physically, they are small to medium-sized, often featuring a Corgi-like body with shorter legs, a foxy face, and varying ear sets – sometimes upright like a Chihuahua, or floppier. Their coats can be short or medium, coming in a wide array of colors. In terms of temperament, Chi-Corgis are generally intelligent, playful, and affectionate, though they can possess the Corgi's assertive streak or the Chihuahua's tendency towards being a "lap dog." They are often adaptable to apartment living and can be suitable for families with older children, but early socialization is crucial. Regarding health, they may be prone to conditions seen in their parent breeds, such as patellar luxation, dental issues, or back problems due to their elongated bodies, making regular veterinary check-ups essential for a happy, healthy companion.
