Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Dachshund / Mixed. Hi there! My name is Frankie and I am a chiweenie. We will post age and weight as soon as we get the info from our vet. I am a FRIENDLY guy! I love cats and dogs of all sizes. I'm good with kids too. I warm up to men after I meet them and realize they will not hurt me. My foster Mom thinks I was likely abused by a bad man at one time. I love attention and will want to be with my people all the time. I am scheduled to be neutered soon. I have to be honest and tell you I still want to mark some but that will decrease once I am neutered. I just need a family with a little patience as I learn. Do I sound like a great guy for your family? Fill out an application and let's get together! $300 adoption fee to help defray Frankie's vet bills.

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.
