Bessie, chihuahua

Bessie is a charming female chihuahua dog currently residing at SNIPSA Inc.

Bessie gets along well with other dogs and cats. SNIPSA Inc., however, wants to place her in a home without small children. She's been vaccinated and spayed.

Notes from Bessie's caretakers:

With those big ears and even bigger eyes, Bessie pulls you in right away. Her adopters will need to know that it will take some time for Bessie to feel fully comfortable in her new home. We know that after getting into a routine and knowing you will always be there for her, Bessie will wiggle her way into your heart and your lap. She just needs that special family that is willing to truly help her work through being a rescue dog and finally becoming part of a family.

Weighing in at a whopping 105 pounds… it’s Champ! Champ is pretty low-maintenance.

Champ is house trained, leash trained and will crate like a champ though he has not needed to be. He will make a fabulous protector with his deep bark at the window every time the mailman comes by.

Howdy, I’m Harley. I’m a sturdy guy who loves to play, eat, and cuddle. I really like wrestling, being silly and relaxing nearby other doggy buddies or a lovable human.
