Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Dachshund / Mixed (short coat). Meet Darla! This sweet girl was rescued from a less than ideal situation. She and her sister Sally were mainly kept outside in the backyard with little to no contact with the owners. As a result, Darla is a little under-socialized. Darla is a very affectionate and sweet girl. It takes her a little time to warm up to a new person, but once she trusts you she will be your best buddy. She loves being with her people and likes to be near you all the time. She is friendly with other dogs though she can be a little jealous about sharing the attention of the humans in the home. This is already improving with some simple training techniques. Darla likes taking walks and is becoming more confident every day. We would love to see her in a home with a patient person who is dedicated to helping her continue to blossom. She will do best in a home without young children - the unpredictable movements of children can spook her a little. Darla is vaccinated, spayed and chipped. Her adoption fee is $450 We cover the medical to prepare the pet for adoption and the adopt donations go directly to cover those costs and range from $295-$495. Thank you for stepping up to save a life! To expedite to meet with this dog, please go to our site at .savinggreatanimals and fill out an application. We look at the first applications to arrive, so we hope to hear from you soon!

Breed overview
Overview:
The Chiweenie, an adorable and increasingly popular designer breed, is a delightful cross between the spirited Chihuahua and the charming Dachshund. Originating in the United States, these small companions inherited a unique blend of traits from their parent breeds. Physically, they typically possess a long, low body reminiscent of the Dachshund, combined with the often-large ears and expressive eyes of the Chihuahua. Their coats can vary widely in color and texture, from short and smooth to long and wiry. Temperamentally, Chiweenies are known for being loyal, affectionate, and surprisingly energetic. They often exhibit a playful and sometimes stubborn streak, making early socialization and training beneficial. Their small size makes them well-suited for apartment living and families with older children or individuals seeking a devoted lapdog. While generally robust, potential health considerations include issues common to their parent breeds, such as patellar luxation and intervertebral disc disease, making regular veterinary check-ups important for their long-term well-being.
