About Rocky bonded with Bella

Meet Rocky and Bella, the sweetest bonded pair you’ll ever encounter. Rocky, a 9 lb male Chihuahua mix, welcomes affection with open paws, quickly rolling over for belly rubs. Bella, a 7 lb female Chihuahua mix, is a bit shy at first but will warm up in about five minutes, choosing to snuggle close for comfort. Together, they are a dynamic duo, thriving on love and positive reinforcement. These little cuddle bugs shine brightest when their family is around, making a home where someone is present most of the time ideal for them. They connect easily with multiple family members, although kids aged teenage and older would suit them best. Both are crate-trained and on their way to being fully potty trained, though they would appreciate a fenced yard as they tend to be apprehensive with leash walking.
