Meet Betty!

Meet Betty! 💕 Betty is a 10-year-old Chihuahua who has clearly been through a lot. While we don’t know her full story, it’s obvious she hasn’t always been treated with the kindness she deserved. She can be nervous at first and may cower or flinch when someone reaches for her, but once she realizes she’s safe, her sweet little personality starts to shine. Betty came to us from the local shelter weighing 14 pounds, but she has been working hard on her diet plan and has already lost 2 pounds! She also had rotten teeth and a lump on her tail, so the rescue made sure she received a much-needed dental and tail surgery. Betty does have mild luxating patellas, so she is best suited for short, easy walks and a lower-key lifestyle. Once she trusts you, she will be your loyal little shadow. She loves sleeping under the covers, curling up on your lap, and giving the gentlest little kisses. Betty is not the type of dog who will instantly be everyone’s best friend. She needs a patient, understanding home that will give her time to build trust at her own pace. We are looking for an adult-only home where she can finally feel safe, loved, and cherished the way she always should have been. She is being fostered with other dogs, a cat, and teenagers, and she does well with all of them. Like many Chihuahuas, Betty also has a sassy side, but it only makes her more endearing. If you think you could be the perfect fit for Betty, please fill out an application on our website. Home check and adoption fee apply.
