About Esther

Esther is a sweet chocolate Chihuahua ready to steal your heart with her gentle kisses. She might be a bit shy at first, but once she feels secure, her charming personality begins to shine through. This little girl loves to cozy up in her crate for sleep or snuggle with her favorite human, and you might catch her peeking out from under the blankets when it’s time to rest. She enjoys squeaky toys and chicken treats, but her favorite activity is showering her loved ones with affection. Esther is friendly with other dogs and small children, showing her delightful nature. However, she faces a challenge—the outdoors can be intimidating for her, and she is still working on her potty training. She holds her bladder well during the day and needs a patient adopter who can help her build confidence outside, taking small steps to make the great outdoors feel safe. If you have a soft spot for timid pups and the dedication to help them flourish, Esther is eager to become a cherished member of your family. Just prepare for an abundance of cuddles and love from this adorable chocolate beauty!
