About Chispita

Chispita, affectionately known as Chippy, is a delightful 14-year-old Chihuahua ready to bring joy to your home. Weighing in at just 10 pounds, this small but mighty girl is looking for a loving family to share her golden years. After a lifetime with one family, she found herself needing a new home due to their small children. Chippy enjoys the company of older children and other dogs. She loves going for walks and especially relishes lap time, often choosing to burrow in cozy spots like her crate or beside you in bed. Despite having limited vision in her right eye, she navigates well; just approach her from the left side. This sweet senior is fully potty trained, happy to go outside or use a potty pad when needed. All she asks for is gentle care, a warm lap, and a loving family. Will you be the one to give Chippy her next chapter? Click apply to start the adoption process.
