Introducing the delightful Maria! 🌟 This 9-week-old Chihuahua-Lab mix (well, that's our best guess!) is on a mission to steal your heart and bring a little sunshine into your life! Weighing in at just 5 pounds of pure joy, this little nugget recently traveled all the way from the streets of Puerto Rico to the loving embrace of the DMV area. What resilience, right? 🚀 Maria's foster family can't stop raving about her vibrant personality. They say she’s the perfect blend of spunky, playful, and cuddly! Picture this: one moment she’s zooming around exploring her world like a tiny explorer on a grand adventure, and the next moment, she’s curled up on your lap, soaking up all the love and warmth you can give. 💖 She’s not just a pet; she’s an experience — endless entertainment wrapped in a bundle of affection! This adorable little lady is current on all her vaccinations and preventatives. If you’re curious about her future, we anticipate Maria will grow to be about 20-25 pounds, based on her present size and her mother’s stature. While she’s a little too young for spaying right now, don’t worry! Justice for Paws will cover her spay surgery costs when it’s time for her to take that next step into adulthood. 🐾 If you're on the lookout for a loyal companion who packs a big personality into a small frame, this little survivor, Maria, might just be your dream come true! She’s ready to leave her tough beginnings behind and step into a world filled with love, comfort, and exciting adventures. 🌈 So why wait? Want to make Maria part of your family?
