Turk-E (Bonded with Hammy)

Turk-E is a 2-year-old Chihuahua mix, 8 pounds of all legs with a gentle, sensitive soul. He can be a little shy, but truly blossoms when his brother Hammy is nearby. With a confident canine friend around, Turk-E gains courage and comfort.<br/><br/>Hammy is a 3-year-old Chihuahua, also 8 pounds, and built a bit more solidly. He is incredibly sweet, loves toys, and never misses an opportunity to give kisses. Hammy is the more confident of the two and helps guide Turk-E through new situations.<br/><br/>These boys are often found cuddled together, but they also enjoy lap time or cozy naps next to their people. They are crate trained, good in the car, walk okay on leash, and do well with other dogs. A home with kids over 12 would be best.<br/><br/> Medical note:<br/>Hammy is heartworm positive and has already started treatment, which is a 3-4 month process. He may be adopted now if the adopter is willing to continue treatment with our rescue's vet at the rescue's expense. Or the adopter may transfer care to their own vet and cover remaining treatment costs.<br/><br/>We would love for Turk-E and Hammy to stay together, as they clearly bring comfort to each other. However, they could be separated only if Turk-E goes to a home with a friendly, confident dog to help him feel secure.<br/><br/>If you're looking for double the sweetness, cozy cuddles, and two gentle souls who just want stability and love, Turk-E and Hammy might be the perfect match.<br/>Please apply here: <br/>https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/DBSR/Dog<br/><br/>The minimum adoption donation amount for both together is $550. If adopted separately, their adoption amount is a minimum of $345 each. <br/><br/>They are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, dewormed, heart worm checked, and on flea/tick and heart worm preventatives. <br/><br/>We are located in Bloomington, IL <br/>We do not ship, you would need to travel to pick up your babies if you live out of state. <br/>Your current pets must be up-to-date on core vaccines, spayed/neutered, and on heart worm prevention year round.
