Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua. Meet Libby! Libby is a tiny little Chihuahua lady with a whole lot of personality packed into her approximately 5-pound body! At 10+ years young , this petite princess is looking for a quiet, patient home where she can finally relax, feel safe, and blossom into her best little self. Now, we won’t lie to you—Libby can be a little spicy ️ when she’s feeling unsure, so she is looking for a home with no children . She needs people who understand that trust takes time and that the best relationships aren’t always instant! Libby is dog and cat friendly , so respectful furry roommates are perfectly fine with her. She could also stand to gain a little weight, and canned food is the way to this tiny girl’s heart—it’s the only food she’ll eat , so her future family will need to keep her stocked up on the good stuff! ️ Libby also has bilateral luxating patellas , meaning both of her kneecaps can slip out of place. At her age, she’s compensated for this condition for a very long time, and we feel that putting this senior girl through orthopedic surgery isn’t in her best interest. She gets around in her own little Libby way and is looking for a family who will love her just as she is. ❤️ What Libby really needs is a peaceful home, patient humans, and someone willing to give her the time and space she needs to feel comfortable. She’s not looking for chaos—she’s looking for her safe place. ✨ Libby is: 10+ years old Approximately 5 lbs Dog friendly Cat friendly No kids, please Can be a little spicy ️ Has bilateral luxating patellas Needs a quiet and patient home Only eats canned food Spayed Microchipped Vaccinated Heartworm negative Adoption fee: $200 Libby may be tiny, spicy, and a little set in her ways—but she’s also a senior girl who deserves a soft landing and someone willing to let her blossom on her own timeline .

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.
