Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Dachshund / Mixed (short coat). Meet Sparkles! Sparkles is an approximately four-and-a-half-year-old female Chihuahua mix, weighing 9.5 pounds. She is adoptable through Chi Town Rescue in Phx. Sparkles has an interesting story of how she got to the rescue. She was actually taken in by a homeless man who knew Sparkles and her two puppies were in a bad situation. The homeless man got in touch with a local TNR cat group who reached out to us at Chi Town, and fortunately we had space to help Sparkles and her two puppies. Sparkles is a sweet mama dog who is happy to meet a new friend. She may be just a bit shy at first, but will soon be crawling in your lap for love and attention. Sparkles has a nice moderate energy level and is happy to run around the yard for a bit before cuddling up for pets. Come meet Sparkles and we are sure you will fall in love with her little low-rider legs, mismatched ears, and sparkling personality! Sparkles' adoption fee includes spay surgery, vaccinations up to date including Rabies certificate, and microchip.

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.
