Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Dachshund / Mixed (short coat). Meet Buster! What breed is he you ask? We don't know... He looks a little like an overgrown Chihuahua. He's 17 lbs so not really chihuahua size... Buster (nick named flip because he loves rolling over for belly scratches) is a very good boy who loves his people and would be delighted to be someone's companion. He is house trained, loving, and generally respectful of your stuff (though does have an interest in socks!). This adoring boy is happy to be part of your world and is eager to please. He loves snuggling on the couch and hanging out nearby while you go about your day. Buster generally spends the night in his pen and will always do his wiggle dance when greeted in the morning. He enjoys his sniffs on morning and evening walks, and will sometimes zig zag but generally is mangeable on a leash. He is not super interested in greeting other dogs on walks, but doesn't bark or display aggression. He gets along great with his in house foster sibling, Lola (45 lb pit mix),and loves playing with her. After his morning walk, he will usually snooze for a while and is happy to sunbathe nearby. He enjoys afternoon chews and toys and is always excited for his meals. Buster does ok home alone though will cry a bit when he is first put in his pen before settling down. He has not exhibited any destructive behavior or furniture chewing when left alone. Energy level- medium, happy for a long stroll but also happy for a long snooze. Cuddle bug level - high- Wants to be in your lap pretty much all the time Social butterfly level - medium - likes new people but does not jump in the lap of everyone he sees and may be shy in crowded areas. Ok with children? - Yes- has met a few children and has been a good boy Ok with other pets? - Yes - He would do well as an only pup or with a dog sibling! He does not have experience with cats. Buster may be a fit for you if you would like a canine companion who loves snuggles and isn't too big! Buster is vaccinated, neutered and chipped. His adoption fee is $450 We cover the medical to prepare the pet for adoption and the adopt donations go directly to cover those costs and range from $295-$495.

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.
