Looking to rehome 5 YO female rat terrier chihuahua
Poppy is a 5 year old female rat terrier chihuahua
I’ve had her for her entire life and she’s never bitten nor shown any sorts of aggression signs.
She is potty trained but has been lacking on notifying when she needs to go outside, would probably be a good fit for someone on a main floor/house with a fenced in yard she can run around in bc that’s what she enjoys most.
Very playful dog and affectionate as well, she cuddles and sleeps under the covers most times.
As far as I’ve seen she is also good with kids as long as they aren’t hurting or messing with her improperly.
