A little about them

Twinkie is an adorable Chihuahua mix with some very cute Jack Russell Terrier traits. His mom is a Chihuahua, and while his dad is unknown, Twinkie already seems to have inherited classic Jack Russell characteristics. He is expected to grow into a fun, active, playful companion.

At 6 weeks old, Twinkie loves playing with his siblings, exploring, and enjoying puppy adventures. His happy, curious personality will continue to develop as he grows.

Twinkie’s mother was rescued from the streets just days before giving birth, and he has been raised safely in foster care with plenty of love. He is currently in foster care in Mexico and will be ready to travel to the United States once he is old enough and his forever family is ready.

Ideal Home

Twinkie would do best with an active family excited to include a dog in everyday life and raise a puppy. He is reported to be good with cats, dogs, and children.
