My story

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

Chihuahua 9 months old (born 10/1/10); 5 ½ lbs. A total lap dog (loves being held!)… loves all people. Doing well on house-breaking and is Crate-trained. Neutered, utd on all shots, on FrontLine/Heart Guard. Available to homes with no children or children older than 10. Louie has the typical “Chihuahua” personality of thinking he’s a big monster. He will closed-mouth growl (which sounds more like a gurgle) at dogs he doesn’t know. If they get too close, he does his Chi “big boy attack-n-run”. In his “home” environment, however, he is fine with his “family”. He is being socialized every day with small (9 week old) puppies, blind dogs, deaf dogs, a Schnauzer, other Chi’s, a border collie mix, a yorkie, poodle, etc. He seems to growl more at the bigger dogs but again, at home, is a loving little doll face with humans and dogs alike. Louie does love people! He is passed around at adoption events to men and woman. Anyone can pick him up and he’s fine and loving. He was surrendered to Cleveland Kennels because he is not good with children (most Chi’s aren’t) so we do not test his limits and will not adopt to small children.
