Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, I’m Luther, a very well behaved, loving, Chihuahua mix. I can’t tell you about my past, but because of it, I can be fearful in new situations. If you’re patient and take things slowly, you’ll win me over in no time, and then you’ll have my complete loyalty! At about 3 years old, and 14 lbs., I can give you whatever you want in a dog. I have energy if you want to run and play and I really enjoy my fenced yard. It’s much roomier than my kennel! While I’m kennel trained, I really don’t like to be there. And yes, I’m so smart, I figured out how to open my kennel door; easy! When my foster mom got home one day, I greeted her at the door, but didn’t try to run out. I had brought one of her slippers from the bedroom to the couch to keep me company while she was gone, and I didn’t tear it up! She thought that was really sweet. I really am a sap for a lap. I’ll sit with my foster mom for as long as she will hold me while she shops on line, or just relaxes. If you’ve been looking for a dog whose favorite place is near you… I’m your guy! I hardly ever bark, get along with both the 2 legged and 4 legged members of my foster family, including the resident cat, and I’ve never had an accident in the house. I walk well on a leash when I’m in a soft harness, and will do almost anything you want with gentle encouragement, enthusiastic praise and, of course, yummy treats! I’m an awesome little guy! Just ask my foster mom! I’m hoping that soon I’ll find my forever home, where I’ll be safe and loved. If you can give that to me, I’ll be your new best friend, so please be sure I make it home for the holidays! ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED. CONTACT US AT 615-661-5333 or ccrnewengland@gmail.com
