Description
Dog Breed: Dachshund / Chihuahua / Mixed (short coat). Meet Pimbi – A Tiny Pup Learning to Trust Pimbi is a little guy with a big journey behind him—and an even brighter future ahead. Now safe in his foster home in NJ, Pimbi is starting to discover what love, comfort, and companionship truly feel like. When he first arrived, everything was new and a bit overwhelming. While he can still be cautious at times, Pimbi has already made wonderful progress and continues to grow more confident each day. It’s been so special to watch him begin to open up and let his personality shine. Pimbi is doing really well in his foster home—he gets along great with both the resident dog and the kids, which has been a huge step forward for him. Having friendly, gentle companions around seems to help him feel more secure, and he’s learning by example that the world isn’t such a scary place. Once he feels comfortable, Pimbi’s sweet and playful side comes out. He enjoys interacting with his doggy friends, loves tasty treats, and is slowly learning that gentle hands and affection can be a good thing. Pimbi would thrive in a calm, patient home that will continue to let him move at his own pace. A confident dog sibling could be a wonderful bonus, helping guide him as he builds trust. Older, respectful kiddos would also be a great match for this sensitive boy. He’s already come so far, and with a little time, love, and consistency, Pimbi is sure to blossom into a devoted and loving companion. Pimbi is up to date on vaccines, and Wag On Inn will arrange for his neuter at The Spay and Neuter Center of New Jersey in Holmdel. Adopters must live within driving distance of Holmdel, NJ. His adoption fee is $450. All Pimbi needs now is someone to believe in him—and he’ll do the rest. Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training prior to adoption. After all these dogs have been through they deserve a loving, committed home. CLICK HERE TO FILL OUT AN ADOPTION APPLICATION!

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.
