ROSE - CHIHUAHUA / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Mixed (medium coat). A woman's heart is a deep ocean of secrets, but we do know that a good chunk of Rose's heart is dedicated to `OUTSIDE!` She moves slowly enough that you could probably take the time to paint her like one of Jack's French girls, but that doesn't stop her from wanting to be in the great outdoors. On a side note, she swears that there was definitely not room for two people on that door. OTHER PETS: Rose is polite with other dogs and content to do her own thing after greeting them with occasional check ins. She would likely get along with other low key dogs, but should be FED SEPARATELY so as not to foster a potential resource guarding situation. As with all our dogs, Rose should meet any dogs she would be living with prior to adoption. [Likely (Must Meet First)] OWNER EXPERIENCE: Previous experience and patience with a dog on the mend from surgery will be helpful, as well as a commitment to slowly introducing her to a new home as she heals. [Some Experience] GROOMING: [Minimal] KIDS: Rose is a mostly laid back dog who enjoys humans and is content around other low key dogs. She is intense with her food and should NOT be bothered while eating food or playing with a chew/bone/edible type treat. Her best fit would be with humans who could respect her desire for space while eating. [10+ / Dog Savvy (Must Meet First)] ACTIVITY LEVEL: Rose loves being outside and using her nose to explore, she walks a little slowly and might not be up to long walks until she has completely healed from surgery, but she would likely enjoy quality outside time with her humans even if she wasn't getting her steps in. A blend of regular exercise and mental enrichment will help meet all her needs. [Couch Potato / Good Walking Buddy] VETERINARY CARE: Rose has a lame hind limb that will be amputated; however she loves being outside and exploring. She will need a good relationship with a vet to ensure she ages gracefully and can continue being active as long as she wants to. [Above Average] LEVEL OF TRAINING NEEDED: Positive reinforcement training will help Rose bond with her new owner as well as help her learn life skills in her new home. [Minimal]
