Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua (medium coat). Right now, sweet, loving, little Oliver is in a foster home, in a safe, quiet environment where he can be looked after and spoiled a bit... So what have we learned about this little guy? Plucky...like when he walks into a wall and calmly turns like a bumper car. Although Oliver is blind, he adapts well and gets along just fine. He moves toward voices so his hearing is intact. He weights 7 lbs. but should be ~10-11 lbs. But it is so gratifying to see a dog put on weight. He is being fed small amounts of high-quality food a few times a day and is eating and drinking well. He sleeps quietly in his crate. Oliver has no issues interacting with other dogs in the house. He enjoys sitting in laps, exploring his surroundings, and taking naps. When we trimmed his long nails, he remained calm, with no reactions. Oliver needs to be neutered. During this procedure, his teeth should also be cleaned, and many will likely be removed. Friends of Yolo County Animal Shelter will assist with these expenses. If you wish to help him recover from past neglect, please consider meeting Oliver by making an appointment through yoloshelter/adopt. Please give him the final, forever home he deserves.

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.
