About Lexi (On Trial 13/4/14)
Hi my name is Lexi and as you can see I am a gorgeous little girl. I am 3 years old and I am a Chihuahua x. I love the company of other dogs as I lived my life with a Jack Russell and really enjoyed playing with her. If I don’t have the company of another dog I would want to be with someone who is home most of the time because I am not used to being alone.
I am mostly toilet trained now, only having the occasional accident, which are getting less frequent all the time. I love going for walks and I am really good on my lead with a harness. I will eat absolutely anything I am not fussy at all, but I am rather partial to raw chicken meat. I also love pigs ears.
The people who are looking after me now have 5 chickens and these don’t worry me at all. I would need to go to someone with a very secure yard as I am tiny and can escape from the smallest gap in a fence.
I also love kids as I have been living with 2 older girls, but their young neighbours come over all the time to play with me. I am very active and love to run around and play with the other dogs I am staying with, But then I am also more than happy to curl up on the lounge with you. I will need to sleep inside as this is what I am used, but a separate room is fine I have been sleeping in a dog crate with my friend at my foster carers house and I don’t mind this at all.
For more information or to meet Lexi please phone foster carer Karen on 0411263304 or email plumb2a@bigpond.com (preferred). Lexi is in foster care in the Central Coast, NSW (1 hour south of Newcastle.

Adoption details
(1) The first step is to phone (preferred) or email the foster carer listed on the pet's profile (scroll to the bottom on the description). They can tell you all about the pet. They will also ask you about what sort of home you are offering in order to assess if it is a good match.
(2) Arrange to meet the pet, usually at the foster carers home or nearby.
(3) If that goes well we will arrange a property check so we can verify that your home and yard are suitable for the pet you've selected. They will ask to see photo ID.
(4) If both sides agree, then you can pay for and adopt your new family member! The two week trial begins on the day of adoption.
