Dutchess

Introducing Dutchess: The Royal Highness of Cuddles At a regal 5 lbs, Dutchess may be small, but she rules with a mighty paw. This 7-year-old black and tan Chihuahua believes her rightful place is in your arms, on your lap, or tucked under a blanket right next to you. Personal space? That’s for peasants. Dutchess is here to be your best girl—or your girl’s best friend—whichever title suits your lifestyle. She loves other dogs but doesn’t need them—after all, she’s perfectly happy ruling a one-human kingdom. When the weather turns chilly, she demands (politely, of course) to be dressed in her finest cozy sweaters. Fashion and function? Dutchess understands both. Snuggly, sweet, and 100% devoted, Dutchess is ready to bring some royal-level love into your life. She’s spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, and has tested negative for heartworm and tick disease. Are you ready to welcome this pint-sized queen into your castle?
