About Mini Coop

Mini Coop is a charming long-haired Chihuahua, around 4 years old, and full of personality. He thrives on affection and can be quite shy at first, but once he feels comfortable, his loving nature shines through. Although he’s currently living with dogs and children in his foster home, he does have some possessive tendencies with other dogs, so a careful introduction is best. Due to his fragile size, a home with small children may not be ideal. Mini Coop is not fully house-trained yet and wears a belly band indoors, but he is crate trained. The right adopter will appreciate his unique needs and help him flourish in a loving environment.
