PARSIPPANY — Meet Sonia! She is a 10-month old Chihuahua who is as cute (and small) as a button! She is a petite girl weighing in at about six pounds – the perfect sized lap dog!
Sonia and her siblings were rescued from a hoarding situation. They received very little socialization until they went into foster care. Sonia has been making progress every day in her foster home and will eventually blossom into a confident pup. She is still shy and wary when it comes to strangers, but once she warms up to you, she will never leave your side.
Sonia enjoys wearing sweaters and cozying up to her foster mom on the couch! She loves being held and sitting on your lap! She gets very excited to see you after a few hours of being away. She covers you in kisses and wags her little tail a mile a minute!
She sleeps through the night in her crate but also doesn’t mind sharing the bed with you! She is working on house training and leash training. It is best Sonia goes to a quiet home with kids above the age of 13.
Sonia has never been around other dogs besides her siblings so she is working on branching out and getting comfortable with others. For now, she does well with dogs who have the same laid-back temperament as her but she has been making progress towards becoming a social butterfly. Sonia would be fine in a home with cats.
It is important that Sonia continues to receive proper socialization in her forever home so she can reach her full potential. After spending the beginning years of her life neglected, she can’t wait to explore what is out there and will need a patient owner to show her the way!
