Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Miniature Pinscher / Mixed. Adoption Fee: 550. Yvonne is a smart and playful girl who adores her toys and forms strong bonds with her people. She’s comfortable in her crate and is mostly house-trained, making her a great companion for a patient, understanding home. Yvonne prefers to move at her own pace and appreciates having her boundaries respected. She can be shy with new people at first, but with consistency and kindness, she truly blossoms. Once she builds trust, she enjoys settling in close, spending quiet time together, and soaking up gentle affection on her own terms. This active gal loves to run, play, and romp around with other dogs, and toys are definitely one of her favorite things. She’s most vocal when someone comes to the door or when other dogs are barking, and she’s unsure about cats and will bark if she sees them. Yvonne is looking for a calm, safe, and loving home where she can continue building confidence and trust. Once situated in her new home, she’ll be a loyal, rewarding companion. Yvonne is from Texas. They arrive in Minnesota on 1/10 and will need to be picked up from the Ruff Start Rescue office in Princeton, MN between the hours of 8am-Noon. Please plan for their arrival accordingly as we cannot accommodate pickups outside of this time frame. Since they haven’t arrived yet, they are available exclusively through Ruff Start’s Foster to Adopt (FTA) Program. Click here to learn more about the FTA program. Once they get to Minnesota, they might require further veterinary care. Ruff Start’s veterinary suite is located in Princeton, MN, and, as the foster, you will be required to transport your dog to and from these vetting appointments. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page. If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.

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.
