✨ Meet Morel ✨ Tall, slim, and blonde — this stunning 10 lb girl is about 3–4 years old and full of quiet resilience. Rescued from a group of 17 dogs in rural Ontario, Morel is now ready to find a patient, loving forever home where she can continue to grow and thrive. 🌿💛 She’s an outdoorsy girl who LOVES to run and explore. Still cautious with new people and surroundings, she prefers the company of women and calm, confident female dogs. She currently lives with two male dogs and mostly ignores them — but she’s made it clear she’s not a fan of small dogs or puppies and can be reactive toward them. Morel isn’t quite a lap dog (yet), but she’s learning to trust and bond in her own time. She’s independent, spirited, and deserves someone who will celebrate that. 🐾 🩺 Medical Notes: • Diagnosed with GERD – needs poultry-free food + daily OTC meds • Should be fed separately – still learning to share • Healed leg injury doesn’t slow her down, but joint support is a good idea • Would do best in a home with minimal stairs 🚗 Great in the car and usually naps during rides. She’s also making great progress with leash walking and potty training, especially with regular breaks or access to pads. 🛏️ Crate training is slow — wire crates are a no-go due to past trauma, but she’s warming up to larger plastic or wooden ones. She has a strong bark when excited or unsure — though it took 4 months to hear her first bark! She's slowly learning when to use her voice. Morel is looking for a patient, dog-savvy person or family who understands her boundaries, sees her potential, and is willing to earn her trust. She’s been through so much — but her spirit is strong and her heart is opening. 💫 📍Fostered in the GTA 📩 Apply to adopt via www.texaschihuahuarescuecanada.org
