Description
Dog Breed: Dachshund / Chihuahua / Mixed. Meet Maple a sweet 15 pound girl who is hoping for a forever home where she can sit in your lap and maybe have a friend she can romp with in the yard. At her foster home there is a male dog that she follows around everywhere and they roughhouse the day away. Maple is a mixed-breed girl. Possibly a blend of beagle, Chihuahua, and Dachshund. She also has the perfect mix of couch-potato cuddles and playful puppy energy. Estimated at 1 to 2-years-old, she’s still young enough to be goofy and fun, but old enough to settle in for a cozy nap beside you. Maple’s favorite thing in the world is being near her people. She’ll happily follow you from room to room, tail wagging, just hoping to make you smile. She is comfortable with kids, gets along well with other dogs, and hasn’t met a stranger she doesn’t want to befriend. She walks nicely on a leash and rides well in the car, though she can be a little unsure at first. Maple is mostly housebroken and does well in her crate at night beside your bed. She also quickly learned how to use a dog door. She truly thrives on companionship and affection. Before she was found as a stray, it was clear someone had loved her, but could no longer keep her. She misses her people and is searching for that forever home. If you’re looking for a loyal little best friend who will keep you company on the couch, join you for walks, and brighten every day with her happy personality, Maple may be your perfect match. She is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and will be available for adoption starting 5/17/26 through Paws Across Pittsburgh, Springdale, PA KL# 16182.

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.
