Good - you might just be worthy of Sarsaparilla.<br/><br/>Sarsaparilla is a chihuahua with enough attitude to power a small city. She lives life her way, and any attempts to pick her up or tell her otherwise may result in a quick reminder (via teeth) that she's not a fan of being manhandled. However, once you earn her trust (and her respect, which you will never demand, only be granted), she'll graciously honor you with lap time... at her discretion. Moving her off your lap? Good luck. Cancel your plans.<br/><br/>Sarsaparilla gets along just fine with dogs and cats - mostly because she has deemed them acceptable peasants in her kingdom. She's living with young kids currently, but trust us when we say she's dog savvy and so are they. In her ideal world, she'd be queen of an adult-only castle or maybe one with extremely dog-savvy older kids who understand the importance of personal space and consent.<br/><br/>Housebreaking? She's got it mostly mastered - when the weather cooperates. If it's rainy or snowy, however, you might find a little "oops" inside. After all, Sarsaparilla is a firm believer that queens should not suffer soggy paws or chilly breezes.<br/><br/>Leaving the house? Not her vibe. Sarsaparilla's dream is to live her best life indoors forever, venturing only into a fenced yard when absolutely necessary before promptly returning to her throne (aka your couch). She kennels if asked nicely, but honestly, she does great free-roaming - mostly lounging luxuriously while giving the other crated dogs a smug side-eye. She isn't a good candidate for an apartment with shared walk spaces, for that reason we recommend a single family home, ideally with a fenced yard for this diva.<br/><br/>Important note: We'll need to do a virtual meet-and-greet first. If you meet her in person right away, all you'll see is her spicy, "don't touch me" side - and while that is part of her charm, her true personality shines much brighter once she's comfortable.<br/><br/>If you're ready to serve (er, adopt) a tiny but mighty monarch who demands respect, gives love on her terms, and will keep you laughing daily with her larger-than-life personality, Sarsaparilla is ready to grace your home with her presence.<br/><br/>Long live the queen.<br/><br/>Sarsaparilla is spayed, microchipped, and current on vaccinations appropriate for her age.<br/><br/>Adoption Fee: $500 + applicable tax<br/><br/>Training Requirement: Obedience Level 1 Required<br/><br/>MEET ME/ADOPT ME: If you'd like to arrange a meeting or begin the adoption process, please fill out an adoption application by visiting https://www.twincitiespetrescue.org/adopt/ or clicking "adopt me! A volunteer from Twin Cities Pet Rescue will contact you within 3 business days.<br/><br/>FOSTER HOMES NEEDED!!! Twin Cities Pet Rescue is a volunteer-run, foster home-based organization.
