More about ACORN (& ANCHOVY)

Acorn and Anchovy are a charming pair of Chihuahua’s who are a closely bonded. They can often be found curled up next to one another in a comfortable bed enjoying a nap.

Both Acorn & Anchovy do find the outside world daunting and can find new situations and environments worrying. They are slowly growing in confidence each day and are looking for new owners who can take a patient approach to their care and allow their confidence to grow at their own pace.

They are looking to be the only dogs in the household at this time as the pair can find other dogs worrying and still are learning to interact with other dogs. However they would benefit from having some calm walking dog friends to help with their ongoing socialisation and act as a role model.

This adorable pair will require a private garden where they can explore in their own time with no outside pressure, this will also help to build up their confidence.

Acorn and Anchovy haven't shown much interest in toys, but food is the way to their hearts. Food and a warm lap is what this pair are looking for.

Both dogs have had some problems with their eyesight which has been treated by the Battersea Clinical Team. New owners will need to speak to a Battersea Vet before rehoming.
