Description:
Ginger and her 30 companions came from Abilene, Texas. They were in a hoarding situation and removed from the home. Thanks to the efforts of rescue groups in Orlando, they are all now safe!
We have 4 of the 30 companions from the family (not siblings). They are very affectionate and will be very easy to train as they love people so much and just want to please. Because of their size, we are hoping for a family with kids over 8 that understand small breeds.

According to www.dogbreedinfo.com, the Chihuahua is the oldest breed on the American continent and the smallest breed in the world. Native to Mexico, nonetheless it seems to have been introduced by the Chinese. It was only brought to Europe at the end of the nineteenth century. The Chihuahua is named after the Mexican state of Chihuahua where he was brought to the rest of the world by travelers. This breed is believed to have been sacred to the Pre-Columbian Indian nations. The Chihuahua is a popular, economical companion dog. Courageous, extremely lively, proud and enterprising, it gives and demands affection. Bold and saucy, it moves swiftly to avoid being stepped on. Chihuahua's are strong-willed, intensely loyal and become very attached to their owners, even to the point of jealousy. They like to lick their owner's faces. It is undeniably suspicious of people except for its owner. When strangers are present, it follows its owner's every move, keeping as close as possible. This breed may snap at teasing children, after all it is too tiny to get away. The Chihuahua must resort to his sharp teeth in self defense. It is not recommended for children. He can be noisy and may require patience to housebreak. Many owners simply paper train this breed. The Chihuahua hates the cold and may shiver, although this may be due to high metabolism as much as temperature or anxiety. It will tolerate and even appreciate a warm sweater on cooler days. They are good little dogs for apartment life. Although it is tempting to carry these dainty creatures about, they will keep fitter if taken for walks. A body harness is safer than a collar. Don't think that just because he is small he should be confined to a small space. Chihuahuas have a life expectancy of 15 or more years.

Foster Update 3/10/14:
Ginger is a sweetheart! She was shy and timid at first, but once she trusts you, she will follow you everywhere. She bonded with me quickly, and has slowly warmed up to my husband. She is still a bit standoffish with my 12 year old son, but not in an aggressive way. She just isn't the most playful dog. Sometimes she is a bit sneaky in a cute kind of way, sometimes when we have left her in the bathroom she has taken clothes off the side of the bathtub and pulled them into her bed. She once picked up my shoe out of the bedroom and put it in her bed also.
Potty training is complete!
She loves to go on walks and to be petted. She is not big on dog treats, though she'll eat soft ones if they are in very small pieces. She is a good eater of her regular food. She also likes to curl up in the dog bed with my own dog.
