About Fiona

Fiona is a charming three-year-old, 10-pound Chihuahua looking for a new best friend. Recently, she found her way back to rescue because her previous owner became ill. Despite this change in circumstances, Fiona is ready to give and receive love once again. A bit shy at first, she will appreciate a patient touch as she warms up to new people. Once she trusts you, you'll quickly see how much love she has to share. She’s dog friendly and strikes a nice balance between playful and calm, enjoying energetic playtime but also wonderful cuddle sessions. Fiona is fully pee pad trained and is very well-behaved, having always had free roam in her previous home. She may need some encouragement to potty outside but adjusts well to new routines. A crate is new for her, so she thrives in an environment where she feels safe and loved. Fiona has a sweet temperament, a stunning silky coat, and deeply bonds with her favorite humans. She’d prefer a home where someone is present more often to provide the attention and companionship she adores. After experiencing the heartbreak of leaving a loving home, she longs for a family that will cherish her equally. With a heart as big as her tiny frame, Fiona has so much love ready for someone special. Could you be the one to offer her the happy ending she deserves? What are you waiting for? Apply today!
