Biography
Mocha is a female chihuahua mix who is 7 months old and weighs 14 pounds. She is a shy girl who has some anxiety. She might tremble a little bit, but once she gets to know her owner and the people around her she will slowly open up to you. As for other animals, with dogs she is the same way. You have to make sure the other dog doesn’t scare her as she might be very frightened or go into defense mode, but that doesn’t mean she’ll attack it just means she wants to be left alone. As for cats, she seems okay with them but I’m unsure. For the most part she is a sweet and very caring dog. She is also very calm and makes very little to no noise and rarely barks, only when something startles her. More often she growls as a replacement for her bark and will whimper when you leave her sight or she wants to be near you. At the current moment she doesn’t play a lot with her toys or with others due to her anxiety. The same goes for if you want to take her outside for a walk or to go to the bathroom. She will walk and run with you, just be careful as she sometimes suddenly stops, but will continue when you encourage her. Taking her to the bathroom is very difficult as she only likes doing it on her training pads. She will most likely do her business the first time not on the pads and pick that as her spot where she wants to go moving forward. It’ll also take quite a while until she does her business so be prepared for a lot of waiting.
