Hello, I’m Nina, a precious and sweet albeit very shy female Chihuahua/Bichon Frise mix puppy. I’m a little cautious around people and don’t like loud noises or a lot of commotion, so I’m not sure if kids are a good fit for me! I admit that I follow my foster mom everywhere, not necessarily because I want her attention, but because I want to know what she’s up to. Unless, of course, she’s giving the other pups attention—then I must be part of the action! Hee hee!
I love playing with toys and eating treats. I’ve even started taking treats from my foster mom’s hand. Yay for me! I’m still working on potty training and doing great if kept on a routine. I also don’t like the kennel or crate. In fact, I will holler a lot when I first go into the crate and randomly throughout the night, so just for the record, you have been warned! Hee hee!
I will need a dog companion and a fenced yard in my new home so we can safely explore and play together.
At home, I’m lovingly shy. I kiss my foster mom in the morning and get really excited when she asks, “Are you ready to eat?” I still have to be on two leashes when I go out in the yard, but I’m coming back into the house with less hesitation now. I love other dogs and do zoomies with them in the house. Chewing on bones, especially rubber ones, is one of my favorite pastimes. Plus, I’m a super smart girl who already knows what “sit,” “stay,” “down,” “leave it,” and “go potty” all mean. I even know how to “give a kiss”!
I’m looking for a fur-ever home with someone who will love me unconditionally, never give up on me, and patiently allow me the time and space I need to become comfortable in my own way. I have a huge heart overflowing with love that I want to share. Please be my fur-ever family. I promise we will make amazing memories together!
All my love,
Nina
Please note that some of our dogs are obtained from shelters, surrendered to our care, or released from breeders. Each animal’s bio is based on our experience of the animal within our care, an educated guess based on physical characteristics, temperament and information shared. Some of the animals come from situations where they are lacking experience in a home and confidence in humans. In turn, they require another companion dog and/or a fenced in yard in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit. Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home.
Please email [email protected] for questions regarding the dogs.
