Meet Gina, a delightful 7-month-old Chihuahua with a personality that far outweighs her small stature! Weighing just under 10 pounds, Gina is bright, expressive, and full of charming quirks. She has a hilarious habit of "smiling" and doing little dance moves when she's excited, and her wiggly tail is a constant source of joy. When she's not busy entertaining, she's happiest curled up in a lap, soaking up all the attention she can get.
As a Chihuahua, Gina embodies the breed's spirited and affectionate nature. She loves playing with dogs her size and is incredibly social, thriving on human companionship. She's also a smart cookie, already crate trained and potty trained, which is fantastic for a young pup! While Chihuahuas can be energetic, Gina prefers being carried or handled over long leash walks and is still building confidence in that area. Her ideal home will appreciate these small-dog quirks and offer patience as she continues to learn.
Gina is looking for a loving home where she can be a cherished member of the family. She's good with dogs, cats, and kids, making her a versatile companion. A patient adopter who understands her preference for cuddles over extensive walks and is happy to have a little shadow by their side would be perfect. Gina was rescued from a freezing week in Houston, and now she's ready for a warm, secure home that will never let her feel cold or alone again.
