Meet Chiquita!

Hi friends, my name is Chiquita! These awesome people at Res-Que picked me up from a shelter that was helping them during their Border Collie hoarding situation in Winnemucca. Boy, I'm a lucky girl that they picked me!
I'm a Chihuahua mix and I'm 2 years old. Some nice people adopted me but they just weren't the right fit for me so I came back to my friends at Res-Que. Like my other doggy pals in the shelter, us small gals are pretty shy at first and I would really love it if my future home gave me a little while to unwind and help me out of my shell. If that's you, well then I turn into a sweet, little love-bug! Trust me, I'm well worth it!
Because my friends at Res-Que love me so much, they're going to be pretty particular about who I go to. They don't want me bouncing around too much because it's pretty stressful! Are you patient and willing to wait for me to be comfortable? Do you have a doggy pal that can show me the ropes? Or even a kitty friend? Then I just might be the amazing girl for you!
