About Margo

Meet Margo, a charming Chihuahua mix searching for a loving forever home! Currently thriving in a foster environment, she may have limited use of her back legs, but that doesn't slow her down.

This independent girl likes to take her time building trust, so she appreciates a patient adopter who can give her space. Although she's not overly cuddly initially, she's very food motivated and is friendly with both dogs and cats. Margo will let you know when she’s ready for some attention, and she's known to be vocal when it's time for her meals! While Margo is house trained, she may need the occasional pee pad or diaper as she learns to navigate her environment. If you're willing to help her build confidence, she’ll reward you with her affection in her own sweet way. Be prepared to bring along a photo ID and proof of address if you're interested in adopting!
