Description
Dog Breed: Pomeranian / Chihuahua / Mixed (medium coat). Lap dog anyone??? Barney is a 9 year old male Pomeranian/Chihuahua mix who is ready to find a forever home. Donât let the age make you think twice - this dude is just middle aged in the toy dog world! Barney weighs in at a whopping 14.8 pounds, perfect lap size! He is well mannered and sweet as can be. Barney came to Angels when his owner had to deal with some family emergencies and things just got a little crazy and out of control. Barney is currently in his âsummer trimâ due to some matting he had upon arrival. He also came to us with undiagnosed pancreatitis which is 100% under control now! He will need to be kept on a low fat/sensitive type food and wonât be able to partake of human table snacks, but that should keep him good as gold! Barney also has a condition known as dry eye. This could have been caused by any number of things but the solution is easy - ointment twice per day! Heâs great about getting it, and best part is that itâs not costly and not very invasive with no side effects! Barney will be sent home both with his food and his ointment!! Barneyâs previous owner said he does well in the house, was pretty well house trained but would occasionally use a pee pad if she was gone overnight. He is good with pretty much everyone he meets, but would prefer a child free home. He has been around cats and was okay with them, and if sharing a home with another dog, would probably do best with a female over a male. He walks well on a leash, is good for grooming, and rides happily in the car. Normally he has a very Pomeranian like coat, so would need regular brushing/grooming to maintain it with no mats. Barney is just a sweet pup who we are afraid might be overlooked due to his age - when really, he looks, acts, and IS a happy now healthy middle aged good boy! He just needs out of this shelter and into a lap! **Barneyâs adoption fee will be reduced due to his meds/dietary restrictions**

More About Chiranian Breed
Overview:
The Chiranian, also affectionately known as a "Pomchi," is a charming hybrid breed resulting from the cross between a Chihuahua and a Pomeranian. Originating from designer breed efforts to combine the desirable traits of both parents, this small companion dog typically inherits a compact size, usually weighing between 4-10 pounds. Their physical appearance can vary, often featuring the long, soft coat of a Pomeranian in various colors, coupled with the alert, expressive eyes of a Chihuahua. Temperamentally, Chiranians are generally affectionate, lively, and intelligent, though they can exhibit a "big dog" personality in a small package, sometimes prone to being vocal. They are highly adaptable, making them an excellent choice for apartment living and can be suitable for families with older, respectful children. Health-wise, like many small breeds, they can be prone to dental issues, luxating patellas, and tracheal collapse, making regular veterinary check-ups essential for a long, happy life.
