About Cider

Meet Cider, a charming little Chihuahua born on June 28, 2026, weighing about 3.5 pounds. This playful white-and-apricot pup stands out with his adorable blue eye, adding a touch of flair to his undeniable cuteness. Cider loves playtime, snuggles, and mealtime. He's a foodie at heart and truly enjoys every meal! He's learning how to be potty trained and manage stairs—typical puppy milestones, so he's still a work in progress. Right now, he's all about fun and is still figuring out the leash situation, focused on mastering collar-wearing with his brothers instead. Although he's 3.5 pounds now, we suspect he'll grow into a larger Chihuahua, around 8-10 pounds, but that's just a guess. This sweet, silly, and snuggly boy excels at convincing you he's in need of snacks—even right after eating! Cider is neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, and ready for his forever home in Bloomington, IL. Please remember, if you live out of state, you must travel to meet him.
