Tikka is a tiny chihuahua mix just under a year old. She loves to run around outside, cuddle, give kisses, and play with other dogs her size. She’s very small-around 4 pounds but with long legs. She is doing well with potty training but is not perfect. She does have quite a howl/bark when new people come over but she has never shown any signs of aggression. She is not super comfortable walking on a leash but loves to do zoomies in her fenced backyard. Tikka would do best in a home without small children as she is so tiny and fragile. She would be happy to have another small dog to play with since she has lived the last year with her chihuahua sister that she loves. She needs a fenced in backyard and does not know any commands or tricks but she sure is cute :) she would love to be in a home where the human is home a lot so she can cuddle with them. She sleeps nicely in her crate at night in front of the fireplace and wakes up ready to play and bark.
