Read Entire Post.  MUST be adopted together!!!!!!!!

 

Alexis, Sydney and Bianca are Chihuahua mixes that came to Diamonds in the Ruff Rescue MO from a HORRIBLE situation in June of 2020.  They had spent their entire lives locked in travel crates with only each other for comfort.  When they first arrived, they were terrified of human contact and huddled in a corner any time I needed to approach.   As time has passed, they have all become MUCH friendlier.  Alexis is timid, but will approach strangers and in time will climb into their lap and want nothing but love.  Sydney is a comedian.  She is initially timid as well, however once she is comfortable with you she will climb all over you, give kisses, show off her amazing acrobatic skills and all around entertain.  Bianca is definitly at the bottom of the pack.  She eats only after the other two eat.  She panics when she cannot see one or the other and does not allow herself to be touched.  She very much enjoys being in the same room as everyone, but always maintains a distance.   I have gained enough trust that when I truly need to pick her up, after a short chase typically, she allows me to hold her without protest and administer medication etc.  Long story short after all of this time of working with them the decision has been made that they MUST go together.  They need to be in a home without children and with people who understand that they will not walk into the house and jump into your lap.  They will take time to relax.  They can NOT go on walks, they all panic on a leash, so they must have a fenced yard.  They are all potty pad trained and would probably benefit from continued use until a bond is established.  If you give them the time and the space, I promise that you will not regret it.  They are three of the most entertaining little dogs that I have ever met, and once they give you their love, it is forever.
