Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Dachshund / Mixed (short coat). Hi! My name is Peanut, and I am looking for my forever home. My elderly Hooman is no longer able to take care of me, and although I miss her very much, I am excited to meet my new family. I am a happy, sweet, affectionate girl who loves walks, car rides, toys, snuggles, and kisses. I have a gentle nature and love curling up close to my Hooman. Sometimes I bark if I hear a loud noise—it is just my doggo nature—but I calm down very quickly. I especially love sleeping beside my Hooman and even sneaking under the covers. I have been spending time with some doggie friends, and we get along very well, but I would also be perfectly happy as the only doggo in the house. I have not had much experience with small kids or other animals, but I have been meeting many new friends on walks with my foster mom, and I have been happy and friendly with everyone I meet. I am a very good girl with a lot of love to give, and I am looking for a loving, stable home where I can be cherished and cared for. If you are interested in meeting Peanut, please download the Adoption Questionnaire, fill it out and email it back to us at infofarescue or fax (310) 362-0321. You can also meet this and/or other available dogs at our weekend adoptions. [Peanut is 6 years old and weighs 18 lbs.] (2605)

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.
