About Phantom

Meet Phantom! This sweet Chihuahua mix embodies her name with a quiet and gentle demeanor. At just 1 year and 3 months old, she is a playful and snuggly companion who prefers a calm, cozy home over a busy environment. With a lean, athletic frame, she weighs around 20 lbs, making her fully grown and an ideal size for cuddling on the couch. Phantom brings a confident and happy spirit to her home. While she may be a bit shy in new settings, she warms up quickly, especially for treats. She absolutely loves to snuggle, curling up in her foster mom's lap whenever she can. A wonderful work-from-home buddy, she enjoys her toys and a comfy spot to relax. Smart and eager to learn, Phantom is crate trained and sleeps neatly through the night. She's potty pad trained and has started leash training, though a bit more practice would benefit her. She's great with other dogs and enjoys socializing with those of a similar size. It's adorable how she jumps for treats and affection, bouncing like a little bunny! Phantom does have a low-grade luxating patella, which is manageable with Cosequin and currently doesn't require surgery. If you're ready to welcome this charming little girl into your home, apply today! Phantom is fostered in Pflugerville, TX, and is adoptable throughout Texas and the Northeastern States.
