Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please complete an Adoption Request Form. This is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about our adoption process, please visit our Adoption Process page on our website at .rescuecrew. Clayton, oh Clayton. This little guy was completely shut down when we first got him. He’d just curl up in a ball in his little donut bed and disappear (I think that was the point!). But look at him now: His ears just stand straight out seeking attention. Someone come cuddle meeee! His main goal in life isn’t toys. It isn’t barking at the squirrels outside or people passing by. It’s snuggling right next to his person. And finding the best hoodie to wear for the day Clayton is a low-energy, affectionate companion who will make someone a very happy doggo owner. Because Clayton’s main goal in life is to achieve Best Snuggler status, it is recommended that Clayton go to a home with someone who is home and available to him or has another canine companion his size to keep him company. A few facts about Clayton: Clayton comes to you housetrained - no accidents! He will also use potty pads, if needed. It is unknown how Clayton behaves on a leash. Maybe you could try it out with him? Clayton doesn’t currently show any interest in toys. That is something that could develop down the road. Kennel training: He’s so low energy and so well behaved, there has been zero need to kennel this boy! Children and cats: He has not been exposed to children or cats, but thoughts are he would do fine with both.Age and breed are based on veterinarian and intake professional’s recommendation and not guaranteed as a rescue animal’s history is often unknown. All companion animals adopted by The Rescue Crew are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on age appropriate vaccinations, tested for FIV/FeLK (cats) or heartworm (dogs), microchipped, dewormed and provided with monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives prior to adoption. The Rescue Crew is a foster based rescue organization, meaning all of our adoptable pets are located in homes throughout Minnesota.

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.
