Hi! I'm Charla! I'm an 8-lb Chihuahua - Dachshund (Chiweenie) blend and I'm only 9 months old. I can be shy when we first meet, but don't let that fool you: I'm just a sweet snuggle bug who is looking for the person who will love me forever. Favorite Things: All Charla wants is to be near her human or a dog friend as much as possible. She particularly loves being held like a baby and will fall asleep in your arms. She also loves snacks and will eat her food extremely fast. She also enjoys playing fetch and will bring toys back... most of the time. Can be quiet and shy when first meet but will accepts all the love after she's familiar. Training & Manners: Charla is a quick study and is already housetrained if let out frequently. She needs a bit more practice walking on a leash: she'll walk well for a while will sit down if tired and will roll in grass a lot. Other than that, she is a good passenger on car rides and sleeps in her dog bed at night. Health & Care: Charla is a healthy girl who just needs the flea and tick preventatives that any dog needs. She is spayed and up-to-date on vaccinations. She shouldn't need too much elaborate grooming, either. Other Animals: Charla gets along well with other dogs of all shapes and sizes! In fact, she prefers having another canine companion around if her people have to leave the house. We don't know how she'd do around cats, though. Children: Charla hasn't been observed around children yet, but her foster reckons she'd do well with kind, understanding, older children (ages 8+). Ideal Home: This sweet, quiet girl would do well most anywhere, be that a condo, apartment, or single-family home. She is very quiet inside the house but will bark if her human is out of sight initially and then she will calm down. Overall: Has charming Charla stolen your heart? If you think she might be your perfect match, please visit www.poodleandpoochrescue.org to submit an adoption application. If it looks like a good fit, her foster family will reach out with more information. Her adoption donation is $500.
