lady bug

Looking for a tiny dog with a larger-than-life personality? Meet LadyBug!This pint-sized potato is built more like a loaded baked potato than a marathon runner, and she’s perfectly okay with that. Her favorite hobbies include supervising the house, collecting belly rubs, perfecting the art of snuggling, and convincing you that she definitely hasn’t been fed… even if she ate five minutes ago.LadyBug loves her people, gets along great with dogs of all sizes, and somehow has the confidence of a Great Dane packed into one delightfully chunky Chihuahua body. She’s sweet, affectionate, easygoing, and always ready to curl up next to you—preferably under a blanket.She’s not just adorable—she’s smart, too! LadyBug knows “sit” and “down,” responds to her name, and is always happy to accept praise (or treats… especially treats).If you’ve been searching for a tiny, lovable sidekick with a round belly, a huge heart, and enough personality to fill the whole house, LadyBug is your girl!.Lady Bug arrives in New England on 6/27 and is scheduled for bilateral patella surgery on 7/6. Her Fosrer will get her on the way being recovered and she will be ready to head to her forever home.Name: Lady BugBreed: Chihuahua/Crossbreed (Breed mix is not guaranteed-no DNA testing done).Sex: FemaleAge: 3 years (estimated)Weight: 18.0Spayed/Neutered: YesVaccinations: Up to dateHeartworm: Negative on recent testingMicrochipped: YesBASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS: Good with Children: UnknownGood with Dogs: YesGood with Cats: UnknownAdoption Fee: $550.00 $100-150 additional mandatory quarantine fee for Massachusetts residents.Location of dog currently: Cape Cod MassIMPORTANT INFORMATION - Paws New England is a foster-based rescue; our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south & New England.
