Zoya is a tiny chihuahua boy who is estimated to be 10 years old. He was dumped on the side of the road and very scared when he first got to his foster mom’s house. He has since put on a little bit of weight and made himself right at home underneath any available blanket. 

He is shy/scared around new people and will growl however he only has 3 back teeth left as a result of his dental but he thinks he is intimidating :) he loves to play with his chihuahua foster sister and I think he would be happy to go to a home with another tiny dog. He appears to have some joint issues from the way that he walks sort of sideways but it’s adorable and he still gets around just fine. He needs to be in a home where everyone is very cautious of his fragility. He is less than 5 pounds with very skinny legs and can be squirmy when picked up. He prefers to bury himself under the covers for most of the day but does play with toys too :) he has a very loud howl is he sees a squirrel he doesn’t like or if a stranger comes too close to him. He is potty trained but with such a tiny bladder he has gone in the house a couple of times. 

Please know that his foster mom is obsessed with him and will happily keep him should he not get a ton of interest so please only apply if you love love love him ️☺
