Crustina Aguilara was rescued on March 16th with three other small dogs in Texas. She was underweight and dealing with mange, but she's healing well and showing her true self more every day. She's about three years old, weighs eleven pounds, and has a soft brown coat that matches her gentle personality. Crustina is calm, quiet, and low-key. She keeps to herself and avoids chaos. Her favorite place is on your lap, and she is very clear about that. Her new home must want a lap dog, because that is her full-time job. She loves food and will do just about anything for it. Training should come easily, though she does not take treats gently, so fingers need to be watched. She keeps her kennel clean and isn't interested in toys. A cozy bed and a warm human are all she needs. She's fine with or without other dogs and has not met kids yet, but would probably be okay. Crustina is easygoing, affectionate, and happiest in a calm home where she can feel safe and spoiled. Cristina Aguilera is from Texas.
