About Paprika

Meet Paprika, a charming Chiweenie with a stunning red coat that matches her lively personality. Weighing in at just 8 pounds and one year old, she truly embodies the playful spirit of her mini dachshund and chihuahua heritage. Paprika adores playing with toys, running outside, or having a good chew on her Nyla bones. She's both housebroken and crate trained. To ensure a successful adoption, Paprika requires a fully fenced, secure yard and another small, playful dog to keep her company, as she thrives around her fellow canines. Initially shy, she may run away at first, but after a few days, she blossoms into a cuddly companion, seeking out lap naps and sweet moments. Because of her timid nature, a patient, adult-only home would be ideal. Paprika is fostered near Volo, IL. The adoption fee is $325, which covers her spay surgery, wellness exam, vaccinations, heartworm testing, and more.
