Nadette is a darling 12+ year-old, 7-pound Chihuahua mix with the sweetest soul and a personality that will keep you smiling. She absolutely loves curling up in your lap or snuggling beside you on the couch, and if you gently scratch under her chin, she completely melts with happiness. While she’s a champion cuddler, she also enjoys leisurely walks and happily trots along by your side like the perfect little companion. Nadette has been living peacefully with both a small dog and a cat in her foster home and would do well with calm, respectful pets in her forever home. She sleeps quietly in her crate at night, though she would be thrilled to upgrade to a cozy spot in your bed if you’ll let her. Nadette can be a little skittish when people reach down toward her suddenly and prefers gentle, patient handling, but once she trusts you, she is incredibly loving and affectionate. Because of this, she would do best in a home without young children. Although Nadette may not know commands like “sit” or “stay,” she is wonderfully easy to live with and has lovely manners. She has been excellent during vet visits, calmly allowing ear cleanings, nail trims, and vaccinations, and she is also a fantastic little travel buddy who naps peacefully in her car bed during rides. Nadette is truly endearing in every way and will make a devoted, loving companion for someone looking for a gentle senior pup to adore. She is microchipped, spayed, and up to date on all vaccines. Her adoption fee is $200. All Second Chance Dog Rescue dogs are spayed/neutered, are up to date on vaccines and have microchips prior to adoption. Adoption fees vary depending on age of dog. Fees help Second Chance Dog Rescue cover spay/neuter costs, vaccinations, medical treatments, food and supplies. Please go to .secondchancedogrescue and complete an application today! All dogs live in private foster homes until they are adopted.

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.
