About Penelope & Tala - 5 & 2 YO Chihuahua X
Meet Penelope & Tala – A Bonded Pair Full of Love!
Looking for double the love, loyalty, and cuddles? Meet Penelope and Tala, an adorable bonded mother-daughter duo who are as affectionate as they are sweet.
These girls are inseparable—not just by nature, but by heart—and are looking for a forever home together.
Penelope
* 5 years old, 7.5kg
* Chihuahua X
* Confident, calm, and full of charm
Tala
* 2 years old, 5.5kg
* Jack Russell X Chihuahua
* Gentle, sweet, and loves to be close to her person
These lovely girls came into care after their previous owner had to relocate. Since then, they’ve shown nothing but love, resilience, and affection for each other—and even more for their humans.
They thrive in company and will happily cuddle up with you any chance they get.
Why You'll Love Penelope & Tala:
✔ Super affectionate, cuddly, and loyal
✔ Quiet girls – not barkers
✔ Toilet trained (just need time to learn a new routine)
✔ Good in the car – easy travellers
✔ Walk well on lead – Tala just needs some gentle encouragement
✔ Fully vetted – desexed, vaccinated, microchipped, and up to date on treatments
✔ Both girls are healthy, happy, and ready to go
Tala is still learning about the big wide world. She can be a little nervous on walks and new outings, but with Penelope by her side, she finds her courage. Penelope is her anchor and helps her feel safe in new situations.
Their Ideal Home:
* A family or individual who is home more often than not
* Indoor access is a must – they’re happiest when included as part of the family
* A patient, loving home that understands Tala may need some time to adjust as she can be anxious
* Best suited to homes with children aged 10+
These two are low-maintenance, well-mannered, and bring twice the love into any home. If you're ready to open your heart to this sweet, snuggly pair, Penelope and Tala would love to meet you!
Penelope & Tala are in foster care in Swansea Heads, NSW. Their adoption fee is $1300 for the pair. They are desexed, vaccinated, treated for fleas, ticks and worms, and microchipped.
