Cherry’s Puppies Chihuahua Mix Portland, OR

We don’t know what it is, but there’s something in the water in Fresno right now. We’ve been called on to take in pregnant momma after pregnant momma and as a medical rescue - well, that’s part of what we do.

Plus, these four sweeties momma also had a cherry eye (a prolapse of her eyelid gland) that needed help, so clearly this was another litter for us. Cherry (the mom) is a very sweet 10 lb blond chihuahua mix. We have no idea who the dad is, so it will be fun to see what these pups look like as they grow.

With names like Maple, Magnolia, Sequoia and Aspen, you might be expecting Dobermans or Mastiffs but nope. These are chihuahua-mix babies that likely won’t be more than 15 pounds. But anyone who’s ever loved a chihuahua knows that their personalities are bigger than the biggest of redwoods, so maybe that’s just perfect after all! Every puppy in this litter is well socialized, playful, cuddly and friendly.

Cherry’s little trees will be 8 weeks old on August 6 and ready to go home then! They will have had 2 rounds of distemper vaccines, a bordetella vaccine and their microchips. All the pups will need vaccines every 3 weeks until they are 16 weeks old. 200 dollars of the adoption fee is a refundable deposit for the spay or neuter at 6 months old.

Aspen and Sequoia are boys and Maple and Magnolia are girls. Obviously they deserve their own forever homes. But is it yours? Apply to adopt at www.stumptownstrays.org
