Additional info:
Chai and Machi are fun, joyful and sweet puppies that love to play and cuddle. They behave as puppies, naughty and playful but love cuddles and human interaction. It's best to have them burn their energy so they are not bored. They love plush toys mostly but enjoy all types of toys. These girls are so sweet and will fill your heart with love. They need to be taught new things as they are puppies but will learn quickly. They are smart and so funny. They are very motivated by treats, toys and positive reinforcement so training will come easy to them!

Rescue story: Chai and Machi were found in Puerto Vallarta outside of a grocery store. A person was trying to get rid of them. They were just 2 months old or maybe even a bit younger. They were full of ticks and fleas and worms, but got the right medication and are as healthy as ever.
