About Jacinta (Chihuahua) in Crystal

Jacinta is waiting for you at No Dog Left Behind in United States. Hello my name is Jacinta (Tina for short) and I’m looking for my perfect home! I’m a 2.5 year old, 11 pound little girl, with lots of love and attention to give. My favorite thing in the world is to cuddle up next to my humans on a comfy couch or chair. I love to be scratched, especially on my face and head. I also enjoy a short play session of tossing a toy and getting some zoomies out. I’m pretty low energy and don’t really require daily walking. Because I’m a little timid I sometimes like a walk but sometimes I get scared and don’t really want to go far from home. I think over time I could get more used to the leash and everything outside and might enjoy more of a walk. But only if it’s nice and warm out! I really don’t like the cold, rain, or snow. I may have a little harder time going potty outside when the weather is not my favorite. I could benefit from having a little covered area outside to potty under. I’m currently doing a great job of consistently going #1 outside but I sometimes struggle to go #2 on a consistent schedule. So sometimes I may go #2 inside. Something I’m great at no matter the weather is my kennel! I love having my own kennel area to go in and out of when I want. I do great sleeping quietly in my kennel when I’m home alone, even for extended periods like a work day. I’m also pretty quiet overall! I will sometimes bark when people come to visit or when I hear another dog barking. As far as other pets go I seem to be fine around cats, but I would probably do best with cats that are comfortable around dogs. My info coming into foster care says I’m good with dogs but I haven’t met any dogs since staying in my foster home. I haven’t met any kids yet but most likely I’d be a little scared around younger kids and would prefer older calmer kids. I also haven’t spent a lot of time in the car besides my short drive home. I seemed to do okay but I may need some practice and good expe
