Here's what the humans have to say about me:
My story starts in Southern Indiana. I was a stray dog in a high kill shelter there. I am now living with an awesome foster family with Rover Rescue. I am told that I am a sweet and lovable little munchkin. I am the cutest chihuahua mix that is 4 years old. I have a white coat, a few dark patches and ears that stand at alert. I am not a stocky guy, but have a more slight build, weighing only 12 pounds. I love everyone I meet, but due to my small size, I will need a family with the youngest members over the age of 5. What I lack in stature, I clearly make up for with heart! Although, I have been called a momma’s boy and I am just fine with that title! I absolutely adore the females in my foster home, but I will entertain the males when the lady folk are not around. I am a great companion as I will follow you wherever you go and stay by your side. Unless an outside door is open, then I will make a run for it. Even though I ended up only 3 or 4 houses down on my adventure, I really enjoyed the chase. My foster mom is recommending a fenced yard as she wonders if this is how I became a stray, being a door darter. Otherwise, I am a dream come true. I am not yippy like those other small dogs. I am a quiet boy with not a lot to say. I am very content watching the world go by from my view out the window. I love other dogs and would be glad to have a playmate. I am a perfect house guest as I am potty trained and crate trained. My good behavior has earned me the treat of sleeping in bed right next to my foster parents. To find out more about me, please call Peggy at 815-739-2598. The $100 adoption fee includes up-to-date vetting and a certificate for a free microchip. Come meet me, Paco, and I promise I will put you over the rainbow with my powerful love!
