Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Dachshund / Mixed (short coat). Meet PIP #2! Pip is a little girl with a big personality and an even bigger love for fun. She's an active, fun-loving pup who is always ready for her next play session or adventure. Pip's two favorite things in the world are her chewy treats and playing with her foster sisters. She has a very high play drive and will go and go for hours before she's ready to settle, so she'd be best matched with at least one other dog around her size or slightly larger who truly loves to wrestle, chase, and play as much as she does. A calm or low-energy dog will likely find her to be a bit too much. Pip is very clever and curious, and if given the chance, she would happily dash off to explore the world. She will need a secure, well-fenced yard and a structured environment to help keep her safe. She is little and incredibly fast, so it's important that her new family is vigilant about doors, gates, and any potential escape routs. Pip is house trained and crate trained. However, she doesn't know how to walk nicely on a leash yet. She will need someone patient and willing to teach her the basic skills and manners. The good news is she is eager to learn. With consistency, positive reinforcement, and some time, she'll blossom into an even more wonderful companion. Because of her energy level, and her current discomfort around kids, Pip needs an adult only home. She is looking for a family who has time to spend with her, will keep her mentally and physically engaged, and will enjoy her silly antics and affectionate heart. If you're looking for a lively, clever little sidekick and have a playful resident dog for her to share zoomies and long play sessions with, Pip might be the perfect new member of your family.

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.
