About Brookie

Dachshund / Chihuahua
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Female

Brookie Dachshund Chihuahua Mix �� ChiWeenie �� 2 Years Old �� 20 lbs (and working on it) �� She / Her Bubbly, Brookie ChiWeenie has a personality so vibrant it genuinely takes up the whole room, which is impressive for a dog who is roughly the size of a loaf of bread. She is bold, expressive, affectionate, and absolutely convinced that she is the most interesting thing happening in any given space. She is usually right. She arrived with a little extra cushion, currently sitting at 20 pounds on a frame that will look and feel its best somewhere around 13 to 15 pounds. This is not a flaw, it is a fitness journey, and Brookie is ready to take it on. She loves to walk with the kind of enthusiasm that makes you want to step up your fitness a bit more. She is looking for a partner who will show up for her daily, and in return, she will show up for you in every way a small, devoted dog possibly can. The transformation that comes with consistent walks and a healthy routine will be one of the most rewarding things you have ever watched happen. Brookie is warm, engaged, and deeply interested in the people she loves. She has the Dachshund's famous loyalty and the Chihuahua's sharp, curious intelligence, which together produce a dog who is always watching, always learning, and always ready to be exactly where you are. The Dachshund side of Brookie comes with one loving heads-up about her back. Dachshunds and their mixes carry that signature long, low frame, which is undeniably adorable and also means their spines appreciate a little extra consideration. Jumping on and off furniture repeatedly adds up over time for this body type, so a set of pet steps or a small ramp next to her favorite sofa or bed is a simple, affordable way to keep her comfortable and protected for years to come. Think of them less as an accessory and more as just part of the furniture, because for a ChiWeenie, they really do become that. It is also worth knowing that Brookie would do best in a home where she can live her daily life on one level, ideally with ground floor access or an elevator nearby. Long daily stair climbs to an upper floor are harder on her build than they look, and setting her up in a space that works with her body rather than against it is one of the kindest things you can do for her long-term health and happiness. Brookie's adoption fee is $450, which goes directly toward her vetting. She is ready to find her person, lace up, and get to work on the best chapter of her life. ��| A note on her health journey: Brookie is healthy and happy at her current weight, and her ideal range of 13 to 15 pounds will be reached gradually with consistent daily walks and appropriate portion feeding. Your vet can help you build a simple, safe plan. The payoff, in energy, mobility, and back health, will be enormous for both of you.
