Age: 10 years old
Gender: Female
Breed: Chihuahua mix
Weight: 6 lbs
Personality: Super snuggly and total grandma vibes.
Education: Needs help with pee breaks.
Favorite Activities: Walking, Eating and Cuddling
Looking for: A companion for her golden age, where she can have bathroom breaks and lots of snuggle time. Someone patient who can help her along her dementia.
Special needs: Elle is deaf and partially blind. At night, she needs lights on to navigate and will tend to stay where it is brighter. She can follow us around, but can easily trip on items. She does not have depth perceptions - so you would need to block stairs off so she doesn't fall. She's had some sort of injury and her back legs are more stiff. However, overall she gets along pretty well. I also believe she has some age related "dementia" - she walks in big circles and occasionally will stop and stare for a few seconds. She either is walking or sleeping - I have never seen her just sit down and observe. She has so few teeth left, we can only give her soft food so we also mix water into her canned food. It can take her a while to eat. She's been underweight - so we have also been feeding her a can of wet food a day typically three meals. She is taking Prednisone (~$5.00 for 2 months. Price depends on where purchased and market value) Will need to be weaned off under the direction and care of a vet
Adoption Fee: $ 150
