Lizzie

Animal Information: Lizzie is a 1-year-old Chihuahua mix weighing about 22 lbs. She ended up in an overcrowded San Bernardino shelter and was at risk due to lack of space. Even in that environment she stayed sweet and easy to handle, and she gets along well with other dogs. Thanks to a wonderful foster she is now safe in rescue. We will share more about Lizzie as we get to know her in foster care.

Foster Profile: Lizzy was a shy girl who arrived from California, who is growing into a wonderful family pet.

Lizzy's favorite activity is lap sitting. She is the most snuggly dog I've ever seen. She almost never barks but doesn't hesitate to talk to me with a low rumble when I make her stay in place while I'm cooking. She sleeps all night in her kennel and frequently retreats there for naps. Her leash training is coming along great. Her recall is good, but for now, I recommend that she not be allowed off-leash. She can be skittish and would be difficult to catch.

Lizzy gets along well with my resident dog, but she loves to be the center of attention, and she would do best as the only dog. She has not been tested with cats or children. She is a silly, playful little girl who loves playing games and entertaining herself. But she can hold her own on play dates. I have no doubt she will be a great companion and friend for anyone with a lap.
