About Loretta

Loretta is part of Mama Reb's litter, born just two days after her mom came to the rescue as a stray. This little one is a mix of Chihuahua and Rat Terrier, showcasing a delightful blend of personality. At just 2 months old, she is healthy and lively, eagerly interacting with other dogs and enjoying her meals with enthusiasm. While Loretta is a playful pup, she hasn’t been around cats yet. Given her small size, a home with older children would be ideal for her. Adoption comes with a fee of $300, plus an additional $100 deposit for future spay/neuter, as the vet recommends waiting for the procedure to ensure Loretta’s health. If you think you can provide a loving home for this joyful little girl, please consider adopting her. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
