Story
Fifi is a 2–4-year-old, 10–15 lb female chihuahua/pekingese mix from Mexico who has adjusted well to life in the suburbs.
This sweet girl loves snuggles, belly rubs, and giving kisses—especially on your arms! She’s smart, affectionate, and loves being close to her people. Fifi has even shown off some impressive jumping skills!
Fifi is making great progress with obedience training and already understands “sit.” She’s working on her leash skills and improving every day—she’s a quick learner and eager to please.
She’s doing well with potty training, using wee pads and also going outside. Fifi hasn’t shown any signs of separation anxiety and hasn’t been destructive at all. She’s happy to relax at home and loves curling up with her foster family for cozy downtime.
Fifi would thrive in a medium to active household where she can enjoy both playtime and relaxation. She’s fine with other dogs but would likely be happiest as the center of attention in a solo-dog home. However, she’s not a fan of cats, so a feline-free home is best.
Her future family will need to continue reinforcing the progress she’s made with training and confidence-building.
Preferred if fosters reside within the 5 boroughs of NYC. If living outside of the boroughs, must be willing to travel to NYC for transport pick-up and veterinary services. Learn more about fostering with Waggytail or about Foster to Adopt.
Vaccinated for rabies, DHPP, bordetella, and Lepto. Spayed and microchipped. Current on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention.
To apply to foster/foster to adopt Fifi, visit our website (www.waggytailrescue.org) for a foster application. It is important to fill out an application as soon as possible for consideration, and we require a complete application for you to meet an animal. We are currently unable to respond to general email inquiries as an all-volunteer run rescue. If the dog is on our website, they are still available.
Waggytail Rescue CANNOT guarantee the exact age of any adoptable dog, or final size of any of our adoptable puppies. We rely on the information provided to us by veterinarians, shelters, owner surrenders and other circumstances bringing the dog into our rescue.
