About Honey

Honey is a delightful 11-month-old Chihuahua, weighing about 15 lbs when fully grown. Currently, she’s developing her skills in a loving foster home. This energetic pup has a friendly disposition and is noted for her playful spirit. While she has lived with dogs before, her specific interactions are still being assessed. With kids, she's affectionate but is still fine-tuning her play manners typical of a young dog. Honey enjoys her crate and seems almost house trained, which is a great start. Her love for food and toys keeps her engaged, and she eagerly greets everyone with kisses and cuddles. Once she fully recovers from her spay surgery, regular adventures to dog parks or similar outings would suit her perfectly. Honey is working on commands too, showing promise in her training. If you think you can provide Honey with the loving home she deserves, now’s the time to apply!
