My name is Brownie and I am a male papillon/chihuahua mix born 10/9/2014.
I am a complicated fellow! I love people and cuddles, playing with other dogs, cats and car rides. If I like you, your lap will be my favorite place in the world. But I do not like being told what to do and I really do not like to be crated. Nope, I'll have none of that, thank you very much! And if you try to make me... well, I won't be the nice fellow that I usually am. But if I can lie on the couch, go for walks (I love walks!), sleep in your bed (and occasionally jump onto a table), I will be very, very happy.
Because of the lack of predictability, my foster mom says I can't go to a house with young children because they might not understand when I get annoyed. Also, I need to go to a home where crating is not necessary (either a single dog home where I can have free rein or a home where I can be confined to a space where I am comfortable).
I am also a suspicious sort, so I interrogate new people who come to my house for quite a while. They don't seem to understand my questions, though, and they always just tell me to stop barking. I need someone who understands me and loves me for who I am.
*A secure fenced in yard is required.

It took some time for her to trust hands and laps, but she is now a loving, happy little lady and a very important part of our family. Believe it or not, she has inspired us to persevere through tough times. It may seem crazy that this fluffy little chihuahua taught us about strength and grit, but we learned that if this little dog could hang in there until she got a chance to live her best life, surely we can make it through a tough day or two.
