Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua. Age: 8 years Size: 5 lbs Estimated breed: Chihuahua Tori was found as a stray in a rural area, completely infested in fleas and anemic. She was never reclaimed, so we brought her to safety and will find her the best forever home! Tori is 8 years old, weighs a whole 5 lbs soaking wet, and is mostly toothless. She's one of the sweeter varieties of the chihuahua breed, allowing gentle pets from anyone and content with being picked up and carried around. She shares her foster home with a larger senior female dog and a cat, and she basically ignores them both. Her preferred companion is her human! Tori is sweet, gentle, and kind. She's seeking a quiet retirement home with a person who wants a low-key, low-energy lap dog! To adopt Tori, please apply on our website! .nirvanaanimalrescue/adoption-application Tori's adoption fee is $200, which covers her vaccines, monthly heartworm and flea/tick prevention, and microchip. Tori is spayed. Please note we cannot guarantee the age or breed of any of our dogs. All of our dogs are working on their crate and house training. PA Kennel License #18366

Overview:
The Chihuahua, a captivating breed known for its diminutive size, boasts an ancient and somewhat mysterious origin, with most theories pointing to Mexico as its birthplace, potentially descending from the "Techichi," a small companion dog of the Toltec civilization. Physically, they are easily recognizable by their small, compact bodies, large expressive eyes, and erect ears, appearing in both smooth and long-coated varieties, showcasing a vast array of colors and markings. Despite their tiny stature, Chihuahuas possess a big personality; they are often described as spirited, alert, and fiercely loyal to their owners, sometimes displaying a bold and confident demeanor. While their small size makes them exceptionally well-suited for apartment living, they thrive in homes where they receive ample attention and mental stimulation. They can be good family pets for older children who understand how to interact gently with a small dog, but their delicate build makes them less suitable for boisterous toddlers. Regarding health, Chihuahuas can be prone to certain conditions like patellar luxation, heart problems, and dental issues, making regular veterinary check-ups crucial for their well-being.
