Description
Dog Breed: Dachshund / Chihuahua / Mixed (short coat). George Youngster is a 7 year old dachshund and chihuahua mix (chi-weenie). He is black and tan and weighs 12 pounds. George came to Diamond Dachshund Rescue with his daddy (Skipper Drei) and sister (Princess Emerald) after his beloved human dad passed away. While that was a big change, George has shown everyone just want a resilient, sweet soul he is. George is a very low -key, affectionate companion who loves nothing more than resting right beside you and soaking up scratches, He is calm, gentle and genuinely happy, one of those dogs who just makes a room feel warmer. He gets along great with other dogs in his foster home. He lives happily alongside another small dog and while they don't rough-house or play, they coexist peacefully and comfortably. Potty training? Completely handled. George will bark at the door to let you know when he needs to go out. no accidents in the house. He also loves his walks. The moment he spots his harness he transforms into a puppy again, tail wagging, ready to go. Once outside he is gentleman, no pulling, no reactivity, just an easy, enjoyable stroll. George sleeps on his dog bed and is happy there, but he absolutely appreciates being invited onto the couch or big bed for some qualilty cuddle time; he's just prefers to do his actual sleeping in his own cozy spot. He is wonderful with all humans; adults and kids alike, no exceptions. Bath time is a non-issue and he is enthusiastic about treats. George would thrive in a clam home where someone is around to give him company and the occasional scratch session. A home with another mellow dog would be a bonus, though not a requirement. We don't have information on cats since his foster home doesn't have any. Please see FAQs for current adoption fees. DDRTX only adopts in Central/South Texas.

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.
