Learn more about the Chihuahua. Learn more about the Dachshund. Ruby Red came to us very pregnant from Texas after her human mom, unfortunately, passed away. She gave birth to her 8 beautiful Rainbow Puppies on October 19th! Mom is a Chiweenie and we do not know what dad was. She is about 12 lbs! We do not know for sure how big the babies will be Full-grown but most seem to be following her lead.
The puppies were born in rescue and have been well cared for and loved. All 8 have been healthy, happy, and energetic pups! Mom has an amazing temperament and although we do not know who dad is, the puppies seem to have taken after her. The pups love other dogs and have been exposed to kids whom they loved as well. As a pack, they are very confident! They “attack” everyone who comes to see them with tons of kisses! They love nothing more than to sit with someone and soak up as much love as possible.
We have recently started separating them from each other for small amounts of time during the day. We are trying to give them some one-on-one time, get to know them individually, and prepare them for their forever homes without their siblings. In such a large pack it is easy for them to lose their identity and to depend on one another. Some are doing better than others but please be prepared for a few long nights and a lot of crying as they adjust to their new lives without their siblings.
These puppies can be a little vocal. They are good at barking and sometimes howling when they are unhappy or need something from you. Due to the weather, they have had limited time outside (however most of them do love to be out there for short periods) so we have pee pad trained them. Although there have been some accidents of course they are surprisingly doing very well.
Jett (Black) is so handsome! He has a dark muzzle and eyes to die for! When he stands up his chest puffs out and boy is he a good-looking dog! His ears are perfect and he definitely stands out looks wise amongst the pack. He is fun and playful and is all boy! He loves to be outside, he loves to carry stuff in his mouth and run around the yard so the others will chase him. He is usually the leader, always at the front of the line, and can’t wait to see what new adventures await him. Jett is very smart and learned how to climb the baby gate to escape. Then waited on the other side for his siblings to follow suit. When they didn’t he cried to go back in because he realized that may not have been a good idea. He has since then taught them all to do it so if you plan on using a baby gate get a high one. Jett is also a total lap dog once everyone quiets down he loves to be on the couch snoozing away.
The puppies have had a great start in life with no negative experiences so far. They have good temperaments like their mama and have known nothing but love from both dogs and people alike. They will require all puppy training as it is impossible to train 8 dogs at once so please make sure you have the time and patience to put into them. They are blank slates and will depend on you to make them great family dogs.
If you think Jett or any of his siblings are a match for you please apply! Jett is neutered, up to date with age-appropriate vaccines, microchipped, flea/worm treated. His adoption fee is $400
