Frida Pawlo

Frida Pawlo (AKA Frida Kalo) is a 2-year-old, 11lb Chihuahua mix as smart and colorful as her name suggests—a true little muse in a tiny package!<br/><br/>Frida was found as a stray with her one-week-old puppy and brought to the Downey Animal Shelter. With no microchip and no one coming to claim her, Shelter Hope took her in and placed her in the safety of foster care, where she lovingly raised her pup like the devoted mama she is.<br/><br/>Now that her puppy has found a forever home of her own, it’s Frida’s turn to shine! <br/><br/>Frida is sweet, observant, and incredibly affectionate. She absolutely adores being in your arms and will happily leap into them for some love. Whether she’s cuddling close or keeping a careful watch on her surroundings, Frida is always tuned in to her people. She’s great with kids, and loves to play with other dogs and toys. She is also clever, and quite springy too! She would do best in a home with a tall secure fence.<br/><br/>Now fixed, vaccinated and microchipped, Frida is ready for her second chance. If you're looking for a loyal, loving companion with a big heart and an even bigger personality, Frida Pawlo is your girl!<br/><br/>More from her foster:<br/>Little Miss Frida first and foremost is the sweetest snuggle bug. If you sit down she will be on your lap within moments. She is mostly potty trained and understands uhuh. She is learning to be crate trained for when no one is home as it is essential for her. She has been known to chew on things that are not hers and will also take any opportunity to eat food left out. *Now for the good stuff! She is attentive so she can easily be trained. Very food motivated. Frida loves to tossle with other dogs and chew on toys. She will chase after toys but no return. She does not seem to be prey driven as she has not even looked twice at our free ranging chickens. You do not need a doorbell as she will tell you when someone is around. She also leaps while running. It's really cute. Did I mention what a sweet snuggle bug she is? Oh and those expressive eyes that quietly call you to pet her. She is amazing.<br/><br/>—----<br/><br/>Looking to Adopt? Submit a Rescue Questionnaire!
