RODEO - CHIHUAHUA / RAT TERRIER / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Rat Terrier / Mixed. Adoption Fee: 550. Rodeo is a cutie patootie with a tiny Texas booty! She is a sweet and gentle soul who needs a little time to come out of her shell. She’s a shy girl at first, but once she gets to know you, her personality shines. Rodeo adores cuddles and belly rubs, and will happily snuggle up with you on the couch (or in bed if you’ll let her!). She is amazing with children as long as they are respectful. She has been so gentle and tolerant of my five year old. She’s got a bit of a watchdog spirit and will let you know if she hears or sees someone outside—just her way of keeping an eye on things! She will keep the bunnies and squirrels in your backyard in check. If you're patient, kind, and looking for a loyal little companion, Rodeo might just be your perfect match. Rodeo gets along great with small dogs and could thrive in just about any environment, as long as she has the time and space to settle in at her own pace. Rodeo was treated for heartworm disease and will remain on activity restrictions for several weeks. It is important for heartworm treated dogs to remain on heartworm prevention lifelong.
