Baby, a purebred Chihuahua, likes to sit next to a vent at her De Soto home, owner Regina Hasty said.
“She likes to sit with her feet by the heat vent or with the air conditioning on,” Hasty said.
She said Baby endured some cruel treatment before Hasty adopted her from the Humane Society.
“She was a stray and she had BBs in her. She’d been shot,” Hasty said. “The BBs are still in her.”
Baby, who appears to be about 7 years old, is happy in Hasty’s home, where she snoops around the house.
“She’s nosy,” Hasty said. “She will get into everything. She’s got to know what’s going on.
Baby does not mind living with Hasty’s other dog, Charlie.
“Charlie is a Chiweenie, a mix of Chihuahua and dachshund,” she said. “He’s 11. She gets along well with Charlie. She’s friendly.”
Baby has some quirks, Hasty said.
“She’ll run around in circles if she has to go to the bathroom,” Hasty said. “She’s a very weird dog.”
