Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Dachshund / Mixed. Please read the entire description before applying. Meet Walker (and he also has a sister Willa. These two tiny pups weigh just 8 lbs at 3 1/2 months old. They are Chihuahua, Dachshund, and Jack Russell mixes who were surrendered to a shelter by a breeder after an unexpected litter. Their estimated adult weight is under 25 lbs. We originally took in eight puppies from this litter, and all of their littermates have already been adopted. We’re now working to make room for the next dogs who urgently need rescue, which is why we’ve lowered this puppy’s adoption fee to $350. This amount barely covers our expenses, but it helps us keep saying yes to the dogs on our waiting list. Walker and Willa love being held and adored. They are being raised in a caring foster home where they receive daily socialization and plenty of human interaction. Because of the cold weather, they’ve also been trained to use a litter box, which can make those first few days at home a little easier. Adoption Requirements: A fencedin backyard suitable for a small dog (no invisible fences). If your condo or HOA does not allow fencing, we may consider your application on a casebycase basis. An adult who is home during the day and able to provide the time, supervision, and companionship a puppy needs.” No crating for puppies. Adopters must use a puppy playpen, which provides a safe, contained space with room to move and reduces stress. We will share recommended options once your application is approved. Children in the home must be 7 years or older. Younger children may be considered if they have grown up with a dog in the household. Homes with no dogs or a small dog will be considered (no multidog households).All puppies are vetchecked, vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, and have received heartworm and flea preventatives and are spayed/neutered. We require a $50 deposit to place a hold on a puppy once your application is approved. This helps prevent noshows and lastminute cancellations, since preparing a puppy for an adoption appointment requires coordination with our foster homes. Your deposit is fully refundable if you attend your scheduled appointment, meet the puppy, and decide not to adopt. This policy ensures fairness to all approved adopters and helps us manage our time and foster resources responsibly.

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.
