Approximate DOB 5/25/2025 – Will be about 8-12 lbs as an adult Toffee along with his siblings Taffy and Tootsie were part of a large hoarding case(Chihuahuas, Miniature Pinschers, Dachshunds, and Toy Fox Terriers). Their mom was a tiny Chihuahua about 6 lbs but we do not know which dog/s was/were the dad/s. The largest dog from this case was about 14 lbs. We don't expect any of the babies from this litter to get over 14 lbs. These babies are very outgoing, sweet, and playful. This little guy has more of a Dachshund body and is very small. Working on house training. They are currently in an x-pen with puppy pads, their bed, toys, and their food and water. They seem to use one corner of their puppy pads in the pen so that is good. These babies have also started going outside to potty pretty regularly and are doing great. Toffee has a long body and little legs with large perked ears. He is very outgoing, playful, and very sweet. He should have a very active family that can help him burn off all that energy. He loves toys and is very treat motivated but his favorite thing is exploring and following his favorite person around all the time. He has been raised with children, dogs, and cats in the foster home and loves everyone he meets. He is an absolute gem who will make a wonderful addition to any family wanting a sweet little boy that loves to snuggle up after a day of exploring. Spayed/neutered, microchipped, and current on all vaccinations - Fee $275 We do welcome out-of-state adoptions. Adopters would need to be able to come out to meet/adopt the pet.
