Meet Samantha, an adorable Chihuahua/Pug mix (Chug) estimated to be 2–3 years old and weighing about 14 pounds. She has had at least one litter of puppies before coming into rescue.

Samantha is very timid and shy in new environments. She does not display fear aggression; when scared, she avoids interaction or cowers. After a few days of feeling safe, she slowly comes out of her shell and begins seeking attention and affection. She is a sweet girl learning to trust people.

Ideal Home

Samantha would thrive in a patient, understanding home that will give her time to decompress and build confidence at her own pace.

• Friendly and social dogs may help her build confidence.
• She is cat friendly.
• A very secure yard is required; she is not suited for apartment living.

Ongoing Health

Samantha is vaccinated and spayed/neutered.
