Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Miniature Pinscher / Mixed. This little ~6 year old man definitely has mannerisms of a Chi and Min Pin, as well as some cat tendencies. He will let you know when he is done being pet. He does not have to be the center of attention, but if he’s trying to get your attention, he will make himself known either by making raptor noises, barking, or planting himself right on your lap. He is a little cautious at first, but does not choose a single person, he is an equal opportunity love receiver. He loves to run around and take in his surroundings but does prefer to keep a small comfy circle. Places he goes back to to sleep, places he relaxes, even enjoys relaxing in his crate. He loves to give dog kisses and will be a perfect couch partner for his human .He’s still figuring out toys… if they make noise, then he’s not fan, he’s scared. He’s also not sure what to do yet with sticks. Great with Dogs, but def no cats, or if you wish to introduce, the cat needs to be dog savvy (would introduce on leash only). PLEASE NOTE: All your current pets must be spayed/neutered, vaccinated and on heartworm prevention to adopt from Polka Dogz. We only adopt in Florida. All adoption fees go to help all the dogs in the rescue, some of which require extensive medical care. Thank you for caring for the greater good. Adoption fee is $250 and you can adopt me at .polkadogz.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Chipin, a lively cross between the Chihuahua and Miniature Pinscher, originated in the United States as a designer breed. These small yet sturdy dogs typically weigh between 5-10 pounds, boasting a short, smooth coat that comes in various colors like black, tan, chocolate, and fawn. Physically, they often inherit the Chihuahua’s apple-shaped head or the Miniature Pinscher’s sleek build, with expressive eyes and alert ears. Temperamentally, Chipins are known for being affectionate, energetic, and surprisingly courageous, often displaying a "big dog" personality in a small package. They can be excellent companions for individuals or families with older children, and their compact size makes them highly suitable for apartment living, provided they receive adequate exercise. While generally healthy, potential health concerns include patellar luxation, dental issues, and heart conditions, inherited from their parent breeds. Early socialization and consistent training are crucial for a well-adjusted Chipin.
