About Asia

Asia is searching for her very best friend to lounge with. This affectionate little lady loves her naps and has a knack for finding cozy laps. In May, Asia had one of her back legs removed, but that hasn't dampened her happy spirit. She's content with little walks to sniff around and roll in the grass, though she isn’t one for big adventures. Asia gets along well with other small dogs and enjoys playing with her foster grandma's puppy. While she does okay with kids, she prefers a calm environment without small children due to her aversion to quick movements. Asia is mostly potty trained, having only had a few accidents, and she happily sleeps through the night right next to her foster mom, which is her favorite spot. Stairs can be a challenge for her; she might struggle with larger sets but doesn’t mind being carried when needed. At around 5 years old and weighing 10.5 pounds, Asia is a charming chihuahua terrier mix. She is fully vetted, on monthly prevention, and looking for a loving home to call her own.
