Trixie: Long Haired Chihuahua

Calling all Chihuahua lovers! Our lovely Trixie is still waiting for her new family to find her. She has settled wonderfully in her foster home but it really is time for her to find a forever home of her own. Picked up as an unclaimed stray, she was initially quite standoffish, however treat her with respect and she will soon come round, particularly if treats are involved!

Trixie adores her walks and she can be quite playful in the home. She is clean in the house and settles herself down quietly at night. She adores the garden and loves running around, particularly if she spots a squirrel.

Like most Chihuahuas, Trixie will need firm boundaries, as she could easily learn to rule the roost! She responds well to positive reinforcement training and has been very well behaved in her foster home with these in place.

Trixie would be able to be homed as an only dog, or could live with another friendly passive dog. She can be left for a few hours but does like to have company. We will not be homing Trixie with young children but teenagers and over will be fine.

If you are interested in offering 6 year-old Trixie a home please complete our online Adoption Form.
