Meet Nellie, Nip, and Ned, 4-month-old Chihuahua Mix Puppies

The puppies will be available for adoption from their foster home on March 6.

Nellie, Nip and Ned are 4-month-old chihuahua mix puppies.

Nellie and Nip weigh about five pounds, and Ned is four pounds at the moment, so the best guess is that they will be under 10 or 12 pounds when they are all grown up.

Right now, the trio are getting all their puppy medical care brought up to date so that when they are ready to go home, they will be neutered/spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped.

They have typical small dog personalities - hold me, serve me, and feed me. They would do best in homes without small children and have adults willing to treat them as kings they think they are.
