MAJESTY - CHIHUAHUA (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Chihuahua (short coat). Thank you for stopping by to see me! Please fill out an application to set up a private meeting. Don’t let her tiny size fool you—Majesty has a personality that’s larger than life! Weighing in at just 3 pounds, this little Chihuahua is equal parts diva, cuddle bug, and fearless adventurer. She’s the kind of dog who turns heads everywhere she goes, and it’s safe to say she has never met a stranger. If you’ve ever claimed you’re “not a small dog person,” Majesty is determined to change your mind. Majesty absolutely adores people and is happiest when she’s being spoiled with snuggles, carried around like the passenger princess she knows she is, or tagging along on whatever adventure her family has planned. She’s incredibly affectionate and loves being close to her people. She also loves other dogs and truly thrives with a canine companion. Having another confident dog in the home helps her learn routines, builds her confidence, and gives her a best friend to wrestle, explore, and nap beside. She may be tiny, but she isn’t afraid to stand up for herself if another dog forgets just how little she is! Majesty is nearly potty trained and does best on a consistent schedule, especially when she can head outside with her dog friends. Because she’s just beginning to learn leash skills, she’ll need a securely fenced yard where she can safely explore and take care of business while she continues building her confidence. Like many little dogs, Majesty has a surprisingly big voice. She can become vocal when left alone, so she’ll be happiest in a single-family home without shared walls. While she doesn’t love her crate, she settles best there when her family is away and keeps it nice and tidy. One of Majesty’s favorite things is exploring the yard with her pack, always checking in and staying close to the people she loves. She’s confident, curious, food-motivated, and never turns down a tasty snack. Most of all, she’s an incredibly sweet little girl whose joyful spirit is impossible to resist. Fair warning: everyone who meets Majesty falls in love with her and wants to take her home. It’s easy to see why. She’s looking for a family with a securely fenced yard, another friendly dog to show her the ropes, and plenty of love to shower on this tiny queen. In return, she’ll fill your home with laughter, cuddles, and a whole lot of personality. Please note that some of our dogs are obtained from shelters, surrendered to our care, or released from breeders. Each animal's bio is based on our experience of the animal within our care, an educated guess based on physical characteristics, temperament and information shared. Each dog receives basic grooming when coming into rescue, but for some dogs they have not received grooming attention until recently and grooming may be required shortly after adoption. This will be at the adopter’s expense, so we encourage you to research the breed and be prepared for grooming expenses. Underdog cannot guarantee hypoallergenic or non-shedding qualities of any dogs in our rescue. Some of the animals come from situations where they are lacking experience in a home and confidence in humans. In turn, they require another companion dog and/or a fenced in yard in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit. Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home. ***Be sure to check your spam/junk folder as sometimes our emails end up there*** If you have other questions about me you can email Underdog Rescue at <inquiriesunderdogrescuemn> ADOPTION EVENTS: Adoption events are updated at the top of each dogs animals' as their foster home signs up. Check back for updates on which events they will be attending. If an event is not listed within their bio above, the animal is not planning to attend. Please understand that all of our pets are in volunteer foster homes and sometimes "life" happens and the foster family cannot make it to their scheduled adoption event. If you are traveling from a far distance to meet a specific animal, please understand we cannot guarantee event attendance. We recommend filling out an application and we will set up a private appointment. Private appointments are only scheduled after an application is submitted and approved. ADOPTION PROCEDURE: The first step in our process is to complete an online adoption application on our website: .underdogrescuemn/adoptionprocess/ Note: In most circumstances Underdog Rescue will only adopt within 60 miles of Minneapolis, MN. All of our foster animals can be seen by appointment with an approved adoption application. Contact us at .underdogrescuemn/contact-us/ if you have further questions. FOSTER CARE: All of our animals are fostered in individual homes or doggie daycare facilities. While they are in our care, they are part of our families and given lots of love. We work on training, crate-training and socialization prior to adoption, but each bio is written by the foster as they see them, in their home. Each animal's behavior is evaluated and we have a sense of its temperament and personality, but it cannot be guaranteed. We look for adopters who will give each animal the wonderful life and permanent home that he or she deserves in time and with patience. If you have an interest and ability to be a foster home, please visit our website .underdogrescuemn/foster-applications and fill out a foster application. NUTRITION: Nutrition is vital to the rehabilitation and life-long health of our pets. All of our foster animals are fed a premium diet such as NutriSource, Canidae, Orijen, Nature's Variety, Fromm, Pure Vita, Stella and Chewy's, Primal, or balanced raw diet. All adopters are required to continue providing premium diets for the life of the animal. YOU CAN HELP: Not able to foster or adopt right now? Please consider sponsoring an Underdog.
