Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua (short coat). Mayhem is a male blonde/light tan and white male Chihuahua, born on December 31, 2025. Cute and soulful, Mayhem might be the most incorrectly named dog there ever was. He is far calmer than his sisters and prefers to be loved by people rather than to participate in their wild shenanigans. He is pure sweetness and love. We took his sweet Mom in for the owner and our experienced foster helped whelp the puppies. After weaning, Mom will be spayed and returned to owner; it’s a responsible way to handle the situation and we are thrilled to be asked to assist in finding great homes for puppies, and spaying and returning Mom. Mayhem has only known the best care and has had his start in a loving environment. He has been started on vaccinations, deworming and proper vet care. Don’t expect to get anything done if you adopt this baby, you will both be too enamored with one another to do anything else. Adoption fee $400. This covers the cost of spay/neuter, DHPP, Rabies, Flea, tick, heart worm check, worm treatment, and microchip. To adopt, you need to first fill out an application. Go to: rutherfordcountyhumanesociety/dog-adoption-application/ We are located in Western North Carolina. Optional transport is weekly. After your application is approved, we will contact you regarding cost and delivery if you so desire.

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.
