LEIA - CHIHUAHUA / MINIATURE PINSCHER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Miniature Pinscher / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 450. Meet Leia! When you think of Texas, you think of BBQ, The Cowboys, live country music and hot temps. Leia left all of that behind to come to Minnesota to look for a new life and her new family. Despite past challenging circumstances, Leia is so brave as she starts to trust more people and understands that her new world is filled with love, kindness, routine, and good food. But she is no pushover, and it takes a bit for her to trust you and come out of her shell. But once she does, you have a happy, affectionate, tail wagging, zooming around, playful furry companion. She is quiet but will bark if she is in the mood. Leia likes to be outside and likes her walks. She is pee pad trained and does go outside to do her business. A consistent schedule would quickly turn her into a potty-trained rock star, of that I have little doubt. Most importantly, Leia would do best in a home with another dog. Her past life included many dogs, so she feels the most secure and happy with another dog around. So, if you are looking for an adorable, zippy, affectionate, furry little companion for your family, Leia checks all the boxes. Leia is from Texas.
