Hikari’s Story
Hikari, a 2-month-old Chihuahua Mix born around July 10, 2025, has a heartwarming rescue tale straight out of a feel-good story. One day, a DoorDash driver arrived with food—and an unexpected passenger: a tiny, seemingly sick 5-week-old puppy who had wandered into her yard. The driver, knowing Mending Souls could help, brought Hikari to the rescue. Loaded with worms like many neglected strays, she received prompt medical care, including deworming, vaccines, and a recent spay and rabies shot. Now, she’s a healthy, playful pup with two different colored eyes that add to her charm.
In foster care, Hikari has socialized beautifully with other dogs, learned to walk on a leash, and is nearly potty-trained. Her tiny size (3 lbs at 6-7 weeks) suggests she’ll grow to 12-15 lbs as an adult. Young enough for proper introductions, she’s eager to join a family with children, cats, or dogs. After her miraculous rescue, Hikari is ready to trade her foster life for a forever home full of love and adventure.
Ideal Home
Hikari would flourish in a loving, patient home with owners who can provide gentle guidance for her puppy antics. A secure, small space or apartment is ideal for her tiny size, with room for play and socialization. She’s great with adults, children, other dogs, and cats, making her suitable for a variety of households with proper introductions. Owners committed to continuing her training and offering daily playtime and cuddles will find Hikari to be a joyful, adaptable companion. A suburban or urban setting in Houston or nearby will make this little DoorDash miracle’s life truly special.
