Octavia

**update 9/23 - Octavia is having surgery and will not be ready for adoption for a few weeks**<br/><br/>Octavia has a few thoughts. <br/><br/>Hi. I'm Octavia. I'm 13 years old, slightly larger than a loaf of bread, and I've officially reached the age where I've earned the right to have opinions. <br/>Apparently...my opinions got me returned. <br/>My crimes?<br/>I object to nail trims. Passionately. If you've ever met a Chihuahua, you'll know this isn't exactly groundbreaking behavior. <br/>I also refused to potty on astroturf after my family moved. Listen, I spent 13 years learning that grass means bathroom. Fake grass? That's patio carpet. I'm not falling for that.<br/>So here I am, looking for a retirement home where someone appreciates a tiny old lady who knows exactly what she likes. <br/>Here's what you do get with me: <br/>A loyal little shadow<br/>Plenty of cuddles, once I decide you're worthy<br/>A lifetime of hilarious side-eye when the nail clippers come out. (do you expect anything less??) <br/>Enough sass to keep life interesting.<br/><br/>I'm not asking for much. Just a soft bed, a human with a sense of humor, and preferably an actual patch of grass for my bathroom breaks. I'll even tolerate the occasional nail trim....eventually....after I've filed my formal complaint. <br/>At 13 years old, I deserve a family that understands that senior dogs come with a few quirks - and that those quirks are exactly what make us lovable. <br/>If you're looking for perfection, keep scrolling.<br/>If you're looking for a tiny queen with a big personality who just wants to spend her golden years loved, I'm waiting.<br/>Because after 13 years, being returned over something as simple as nails and grass is a pretty lousy ending.<br/>Octavia is spayed, microchipped, and current on vaccines and flea/tick/heartworm meds. She would happily coexist with other low key dogs. Visit our website at wagsandwigglesfw.com to apply!

Hi. I'm Octavia. I'm 13 years old, slightly larger than a loaf of bread, and I've officially reached the age where I've earned the right to have opinions.
Apparently...my opinions got me returned.
My crimes?
I object to nail trims. Passionately. If you've ever met a Chihuahua, you'll know this isn't exactly groundbreaking behavior.
I also refused to potty on astroturf after my family moved. Listen, I spent 13 years learning that grass means bathroom. Fake grass? That's patio carpet. I'm not falling for that.
So here I am, looking for a retirement home where someone appreciates a tiny old lady who knows exactly what she likes.
Here's what you do get with me:
A loyal little shadow
Plenty of cuddles, once I decide you're worthy
A lifetime of hilarious side-eye when the nail clippers come out. (do you expect anything less??)
Enough sass to keep
