Introducing Licorice...

Licorice is a 2-3 month old 'kissy-face' Chihuahua pup with a spot of white on her chest and a bit of white underneath her jaw... Black dogs with dark eyes are a nightmare to photograph as you can see below:

They are also hard to get adopted at the shelter for humans connect to dogs via visual aspects... If you can't see a dog's eyes easily, we as humans have a tendency to stare into them harder (which in dog language is dominance)...

However, Licorice is as sweet as can be and all puppy (still), so hopefully she will find her furever home quickly... She's small at 4 pounds and shouldn't get much bigger, but 'playful' is her middle name...

I just had to post these two photos - she's not got a mean or vicious bone in her body but when she grabbed the camera strap and started to tug, it became an excellent opportunity to snap some photos of her face... LOL...

Too cute, huh?

Licorice is now spayed, up-to-date on her shots including rabies, microchipped and licensed for the County of Ventura... She is potty- and doggie-door trained... Licorice gets along well with other dogs, but as a puppy she would bother a very senior dog to an early grave - she is still VERY much a puppy with high energy levels.
