Taquito and his siblings (fondly referred to as our "Taco Tuesday Litter") were surrendered to Paw Placement along with their momma when they were just a few days old. This little family has been living the good life in a loving foster home, and these pups have never known anything but love and kindness. Mom is a 7-pound long-hair Chihuahua and dad is a short-hair Chihuahua. Though these pups can still be a bit shy when meeting new people (due to the current restrictions in society, socialization is more difficult), they've met quite a few new people and always warm up within a few hours. They absolutely love dogs, and would all love to go home with a doggie playmate or two. They also live with cats and are comfortable and respectful of kitties.

These babies are rambunctious, affectionate, playful, energetic, sweet and cuddly. They are just beginning to work on their house training and, as with all young puppies, will need continued training in their forever homes.

Please note: socializing dogs, especially young dogs, is critical to their development. Puppies need to have positive experiences with new people, places, sounds, dogs on a WEEKLY basis to ensure they do not grow into insecure, fearful or even aggressive adult dogs. Please consider this when adopting during this pandemic. Socialization is currently more difficult, but it isn't any less important, so please be sure you can fulfill this need in a new dog before committing to adopt.

If you are interested in adopting, please complete an adoption application. Because expect a large number of applications for this litter, and are still understaffed due to COVID19, we will only be able to email those applicants that are approved to schedule a meet and greet. Thank you in advance for your understanding if you don't hear back from us regarding your application.
