SASSY THE CHIHUAHUA - CHIHUAHUA / JACK RUSSELL TERRIER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Jack Russell Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: $175. Sassy is a sweet and spirited Chihuahua–Jack Russell Terrier mix, just over two years old and weighing in at a petite 9 pounds...though her personality is much bigger than that! She’s looking for a quiet, loving home where she can stretch her legs, soak up affection, and be part of someone’s everyday life. she’s full of spunk, loves squeaky toys, and isn’t afraid to tell you how she feels. She’s currently being rehomed by her owner due to ongoing cancer treatment and, while deeply loved, has been spending too much time in a crate. Her family wants her to have the joyful, active life she deserves. Sassy would thrive in a calm, adult-only home or one with gentle teens. She should be the only pet, at least for now, as she’s fearful of other animals and will bark or try to avoid them. She can be shy with new people at first but warms up quickly. She’s not a fan of vet visits (she takes meds beforehand to help stay calm) and does best with gentle handling, especially when it comes to her feet. But at home she’s a cuddle bug who loves to burrow under blankets and nap in your lap. If you’re looking for a loyal, quirky little companion who’ll adore you endlessly and keep your lap warm every evening, Sassy just might be your girl. Sassy is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, current on heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, crate trained, and trained to use puppy pads.
