DOB 8/1/25, weight 9.5 #

Hey there, everyone! I'm Inky, a charming, self-assured, and devoted black wire-haired Chihuahua / Yorkshire Terrier mix gal who's got a huge personality despite my small size. I have an adorable underbite which helps everyone I meet fall in love with me. I like nothing better than to be nestled in my foster mom's lap - except perhaps to be treated like a big dog and to get regular exercise. That's no problem for me because I already walk well on a leash.

My former owner abandoned me on the balcony when they moved out of their apartment. I waited all alone for several days because I expected them to return for me, but they never did. Thank heavens Foster Mom has a special place in her heart for homeless Chihuahuas, so when she heard about my precarious predicament, she immediately brought me to the comfort and safety of her home. She was delighted that I was fine with the other small dogs, cats, and kids in her household. That said, other dogs scare me, so I would prefer to be an "only-dog-child." Plus I'm a fast learner - despite my young age, I'm already housetrained and crate-trained.

Now I'm ready to bring along my adorable snaggletooth smile and flagpole tail when I become the pint-sized shaggy dog of my forever family. Could that be you? Arrange to meet me! You might be able to fit me inside your purse when you take me home, where I plan to spend plenty of quality of time in your lap.
