Gabby is a 6-year-old sweet and cuddly female chihuahua who will melt your heart:
In a nutshell, this little peanut is a loveable sweetie pie! Gabby likes being pampered and spoiled and prefers to spend as much time as possible on your lap being pet. As much as she is cuddly, she is just as playful and enjoys to wrestle. One of her greatest traits - she doesn't bark much! Gabby gets along with other dogs, but most of her encounters were all with larger dogs and none her own size. She has had no exposure to cats. Children are AOK in her book - from toddlers to older kids, she likes them all. She seems to prefer women and is a little leery of men at first, but after a few minutes of kindness she forgets her initial hesitation. What a smart little cookie - in a short time she learned to sit and roll over during play time with the kids in her foster home. She "heels" when going for walks and loves to lay down and roll over so her belly can be rubbed. Gabby is quite tolerant, even when being dressed in sweaters when it's cold out to go for walks. At this time she's not fond of being in a crate for long periods of time when her foster family is away, but it's best she remained crate-trained until she is fully housebroken. Her tiny bladder seems to need to go out and emptied every couple hours to keep from having accidents. Overall this petite princess is super friendly and very calm and will make such a wonderful addition to a loving household who wants a pet and companion to dote on.
Gabby’s adoption fee is $200 which includes her spay, vaccines, fecal and heartworm tests, microchipping and registration. Contact the Romeoville Humane Society by email at romeovillehumanesociety@yahoo.com or phone (877) 813-7300 for more information on Gabby or to set an appointment to meet her.
