My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Takimi!

Age: 5 years | Weight: 10 pounds
Breed: Chihuahua Mix
Dogs: Yes | Cats: Untested | Kids: No
Status: Adoptable

There is no way around it. Takimi is a ladies man! This little fellow loves his ladies and would do best in a home with a mature couple who's understanding on the time he will need to trust or with a single woman. He's very selective with the men in his life and takes a considerable amount of time to warm up to them.

Takimi is approx 5yo and would do best in a quieter household with no children. He's playful guy but also likes to just take it easy. He's currently living with another small dog with no issues but has not been exposed to cats.

This is what Takimi's foster had to say about him:
"If you want to feel you're the best, nicest , most adored & loved person in the whole wide world, then adopt Takimi!!! (aka: Taco & Moo-moo).. This sweet little boy will be your shadow once he's earned your trust & feels safe in your world. He is nervous with new people and isn't drawn to men but he was ok with the Grandpa in his original home and has warmed up to my husband, allowing him to give him treats & is comfortable sleeping on our bed.

Takimi is house trained and knows basic commands as: sit, stay, up, down, come, out & cookie (treats). He's a super, duper cuddler & loves to sit on my lap outside at night, snuggled in a blanket. He loves to sleep under the covers at night nestled behind my knees. He has no problem sleeping alone in his bed in the kitchen either.

He loves his foster brother, Wallace, an 9 yr old, 9 lb Pom-a-poo and when Takimi wants to play, the show is on with him pouncing & darting at Wallace and running laps through the house. He's also good with our 4-6 mom Pitt/lab cross foster.

Takimi is over the moon with excitement when I walk in the door with his tail just a waggin & him spinning in circles! He loves his walks and will remind you when it's time with a wee whimpering! And when the harness goes on he whimps with excitement! Takimi is not a barker but a great watch dog and will alert you to anyone at your door!

He needs a quiet home with a mature couple or single woman (no young kids) but will take take time to warm up. You will know you have his heart when he sits and stares at you and then slowly but surely his front paw will raise to you and if you extend your finger to his paw he will hold onto it. It's almost like he's shaking you're hand and saying, 'I trust you & you're a keeper!'

When you meet Takimi, he will not be the dog he truly is until he feels safe with you! If you have the love & patience to give Takimi his furever home, you won't regret it!"

Takimi is neutered and is going to the vet for his annual shots this month:)
