LEIA - CHIHUAHUA / MINIATURE PINSCHER / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Miniature Pinscher / Mixed. Adoption Fee: 450. Meet Leia!! We like to refer to her as Princess Leia. Why? This dog has courage and strength of character like her namesake. Despite coming from challenging circumstances, Princess Leia is so brave as she starts to trust people and understands that her new world is filled with kindness, routine, good food and treats (more specifically hot dogs!). She needed about 4 days in her own space to decompress and feel safe and after that, she wholeheartedly threw herself into our home, our 2 resident dogs, my visiting cousin and various friends. Once Princess Leia has had some time to decompress, the transformation is beautiful. She’ll start doing zoomies, rolling over for belly rubs, and snuggling up with you to show just how happy she is. And yes—it’s as heart-melting as it sounds. She likes to be outside and likes her walks with a furry friend. She is a great little dog and any family would be lucky to get her. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.

If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.
