She resembles a chi but she is bigger than a small chi hence we think she is a terrier (small breed terrier) and Chi mix. Basically an over grown chihuahua! ha ha We can say she is not your typical chi though! She LOVES dog friends, she loves humans and is a huge extrovert who does well with cats too! She may be a small breed under 20 pounds but at a hefty 17 pounds she is small but durable and excellent walking and hiking companion who enjoys being the life of the party playing with all dog friends, she is VERY flirty with the larger breeds and one of her good friends are Gia and Red BUT she also adores playing with smaller breeds. She matches persoanlities and a great dog if you are looking for a buddy for a resident home. She also entertains herself very well with toys tossing them around loves to grab toys. As of late February she is fostered in San Diego with a family who has young children in elementary grade and adores them, they adore her too. She is used to being fostered in a home with multiple dogs but has being doing well as an only dog. She is crate trained and once she settles in a new environemnt catches pretty quickly on house training with minimal accidents. She is not a huge barker BUT she is still a small breed dog which barking comes with the territory of small dogs. The level will depend on her new humans and how they train and correct ei do NOT allowe her to bark and she won't or at least will keep to minimum its all about structure from day ONE in a new home. She will be a great dog for almost all applicants from retirees to family with kids or working adults as long as will keep her entertained and meet her energy requirements, she is small and loves to cuddle and be a couch potato but also loves to rump around with friends and run or play around. She is a healthy dog who has an apt in mid March to be spayed (the only thing left to do since that is when vet clinic has openings) anyone interested in adopting before she is spayed can do so NOW but needs to be local to san diego to be able to drop her off to her spay apt or ARWOB volunteers can also help coordinate transport to and from the vet clinic in san diego (spay is incuded with her adoption fee of course) Submit an application to meet this beauty today! She has a great personality! If you would like to meet one of our animals, PLEASE fill out an adoption application.
