MORE ON CHILLI.
This beauty queen with perfect ears is looking for her forever home! Dubbed "the perfect pocket pittie," she was named Chilli after her favorite show, "Bluey." She is 50 lbs, approximately 3 years old, and is an energetic girl who just wants to be around her people whether it's on the couch or in the car en route to the beach. She is crate-trained, dog friendly and has been good with kids while her exposure has been minimal.
Chilli's story is a mystery as she was found last Valentine's Day on the street in South LA by two DOG PPL Members who were supposed to be en route to date night. She was post-partum, scared, and separated from her puppies who were never found. They quickly learned that she had a heart condition and knowing the strain currently on the shelter and rescue system would put a dog like her at immediate risk, they chose to foster themselves. We are happy to report her surgery and recovery went perfectly and she will live a long, happy, and healthy life with her forever family. She is also spayed and up to date on her vaccinations.
Chilli requires a patient home due to some understandable initial stranger danger. The couple has been taking Chilli to group training classes and working with a trainer 1:1 to build her confidence. It has been going incredibly well and they are happy to make introductions and help facilitate an easy transition.
What You Should Know About Chilli:
In early July, Chilli underwent a successful balloon valvoplasty to repair her pulmonic stenosis, thanks to the generosity of over 150 donors. She’s now ready to live a long, healthy life with her forever family.
Housebroken and crate-trained, Chilli sleeps soundly through the night without a peep. She sometimes even resists bedtime walks, she loves her bed that much.
She'll greet you with a happy dance each morning and wait for her food while dancing with excitement.
She’s an Olympic Gold Medalist in snuggling and is working hard to perfect her leash manners. While she can get a bit excited on walks, she’s easily redirected with a treat and a kiss.
Chilli’s food-motivated nature makes her a great helper in the kitchen, but she’s never too eager to swipe anything off the table.
Though she may take a little time to warm up, once she does, Chilli is the most loving, floppy, and joyful companion you could ask for. She’s playful and curious and communicates her needs well.
She’s had limited exposure to kids but has done well with the few she’s met.
If Chilli is your soul dog, she’ll be your loyal best friend, whether you’re cuddling on the couch, enjoying a day at the beach, or heading out for a road trip. She’ll thrive in a patient, loving home and will give you everything and more in return.
Chilli is a truly special dog, and we hope you’ll fall in love with her just like we have.
