Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Dachshund / Mixed (medium coat). Hi Iâm Gertie! Iâm a 9-year-old spayed female Dachshund mix weighing around 20lbs. I was found in Loveland as a stray, and when no one came looking for me there, the nice lady who found me brought me up to Frisco to find a new loving home. I am a very sweet and social gal who enjoys the company of dogs and people! I would describe myself as easy-going, I enjoy easy strolls through the neighborhood and just being included in what is going on. Please come and meet me, I know you will fall in love and give me a wonderful home!

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.
