In the shelter’s words

Est DOB ~ 2 yrs Current weight ~ 18 lbs This dog is heartworm positive but please do not rule him/her out because of it. There's a treatment that is not as hard on the dog as the one you may have heard of and it's FREE. Meet Coletta, a sturdy two-year-old 18lb Chihuahua/Dauschund mix. Coletta's personality is true to her dual breed heritage - playful, loving, curious and vocal. Squirrels are her mortal enemy and every day she shouts them out of their nests.Coletta’s energy level is medium/low. She spends half her time napping in the sun recharging waiting for someone to play with her. And the other half playing with her toys or chewing her bones. She loves chewing bones. When presented with a rawhide bone, Coletta shimmies with full butt wiggles. She also enjoys taking walks and is keen to reply to pee-mail. Coletta is fully house and kennel trained. Her kennel is her safe space. She loves people and gets along with other dogs. Her future pawrent should be aware Coletta has a dominant personality and doesn't like to share her things (toys, food, etc.). Coletta will take the opportunity to correct dogs that cross her boundaries.Coletta is incredibly loyal to her family. You'll always find her close, keeping an eye on those she loves. When you settle to watch TV, she'll climb into your lap, lay her head on your chest and stare deeply into your eyes telepathically telling you how much she loves you. Coletta offers her security services free of charge. She’ll bark at everyone who crosses the threshold. Her foster family finds it best all guests pay a treat toll.$350 adoption fee includes spay/neuter surgery, rabies and other vaccinations, heartworm test, deworming, and heartworm and flea preventatives while the dog is in our care.Like us on Facebook - search Mutts & Meows - and help even more pets find loving homes.
