Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua (medium coat). Meet Dane, an adorable 4-year-old, 8-pound chihuahua with a tender little heart that’s still learning how to trust the world .Dane can be a bit conflicted at times—he’s fearful and unsure in new situations, yet he also secretly wants connection. He may be hesitant to approach at first and might keep his distance when you walk into the room. But give him a little time and a gentle approach, and you’ll see his sweet side peek through. Before long, he’ll be taking treats with those tiny, careful nibbles, and showing you he truly does want companionship. He’s currently sharing a room with other small male dogs and has been doing well with them. A calm, patient adopter will be the key to helping Dane blossom. With kindness, consistency, and space to feel safe, this little guy has the potential to become a loyal, loving companion. If you’re someone who understands that trust takes time—and you’re happy to let Dane set the pace—he just might be the perfect addition to your home.

Overview:
The Chihuahua, a captivating breed known for its diminutive size, boasts an ancient and somewhat mysterious origin, with most theories pointing to Mexico as its birthplace, potentially descending from the "Techichi," a small companion dog of the Toltec civilization. Physically, they are easily recognizable by their small, compact bodies, large expressive eyes, and erect ears, appearing in both smooth and long-coated varieties, showcasing a vast array of colors and markings. Despite their tiny stature, Chihuahuas possess a big personality; they are often described as spirited, alert, and fiercely loyal to their owners, sometimes displaying a bold and confident demeanor. While their small size makes them exceptionally well-suited for apartment living, they thrive in homes where they receive ample attention and mental stimulation. They can be good family pets for older children who understand how to interact gently with a small dog, but their delicate build makes them less suitable for boisterous toddlers. Regarding health, Chihuahuas can be prone to certain conditions like patellar luxation, heart problems, and dental issues, making regular veterinary check-ups crucial for their well-being.
