About Vivian

Meet Vivian! Vivian arrived as a new mom, carefully guarding her two-day-old puppies and giving them excellent care. Now that her pups are grown, this small, 2-3 year old Chihuahua mix is ready for a home of her own. Vivian is about 11 pounds and a bit timid, especially in new situations and around unfamiliar people. Outdoors can be overwhelming for her, and it seems she spent little time outside before rescue, so she currently prefers using pee pads indoors over trips outside and will need gradual support during housetraining. She loves snuggling and is a quiet companion—not much of a barker at all. In her foster home, Vivian gets along well with other dogs but can be food-protective. She is working on gaining weight after coming in very thin, and she remains affectionate throughout her recovery. She gets along with dogs, cats, and children. Vivian is spayed, microchipped, and her vaccinations are up to date. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
