Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Miniature Pinscher / Mixed. Little Bit came to us from a rural municipal shelter when his time was up. Thanks to a wonderful foster home, we were able to pull him and save his life. Upon intake we completed our usual vetting and sadly discovered him to be heartworm positive. We have started his treatment plan under the care of one of our trusted vets. Little Bit has so far been a wonderful, laid back little fella! We look forward to getting to know him better in the coming weeks.<br /> <br /> Okie Pet Rescue <br /> okiepetrescuegmail okiepetrescue <br /> An application must be completed and approved after a comprehensive review. Adoptions include spay or neuter, current vaccinations, and heartworm testing.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Chipin, a lively cross between the Chihuahua and Miniature Pinscher, originated in the United States as a designer breed. These small yet sturdy dogs typically weigh between 5-10 pounds, boasting a short, smooth coat that comes in various colors like black, tan, chocolate, and fawn. Physically, they often inherit the Chihuahua’s apple-shaped head or the Miniature Pinscher’s sleek build, with expressive eyes and alert ears. Temperamentally, Chipins are known for being affectionate, energetic, and surprisingly courageous, often displaying a "big dog" personality in a small package. They can be excellent companions for individuals or families with older children, and their compact size makes them highly suitable for apartment living, provided they receive adequate exercise. While generally healthy, potential health concerns include patellar luxation, dental issues, and heart conditions, inherited from their parent breeds. Early socialization and consistent training are crucial for a well-adjusted Chipin.
