Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Dachshund / Mixed. Clara is a very sweet, happy pup who is ready to share her love with a forever family. It took her a little time to feel safe, but now that she has opened up, she’s all about affection and cuddles—on her own terms. She prefers coming to you for attention rather than being approached, but with patience and trust, her confidence continues to grow. Clara enjoys treats and is learning how to play with her foster sister, which has been a joy to watch. She is house trained and doing very well with her routines. Leash training is still new for her—right now, she tends to freeze when a leash is put on—but with gentle guidance and encouragement, she will learn at her own pace. With her sweet personality and gentle spirit, Clara will make a loving and loyal companion for a family willing to give her the patience, time, and love she deserves. Stop by our weekly adoption events on Saturdays from 12-4 pm at 372 Townline Road in Mundelein, IL 60060 to meet our adoptable animals in person. Follow us on Facebook for additional updates and sneak peeks of new dogs! .facebook/reachrescue

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.
