Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Nugget is a 6 month old, 10 lb., red/white Chihuahua/Miniature Pinscher mix. This poor baby’s owner died and he is just getting used to his new foster home. He is doing just fine; eating well, playing with his toys and running around being a puppy. He is comfortable in his crate and can stay there for long periods of time without complaining. Nugget is smart and trainable with silly, puppy energy. He already knows SIT and knows his name. He has a lot of potential but is lacking in confidence right now and is a little scared. He may be more scared of men than women and because of his fear issues we do not recommend him for a home with young kids. Overall, he appears to be generally housetrained with access to the outdoors but he has had one or two accidents in his first few days. Nugget is very affectionate and sweet and loves belly rubs and cuddling. He needs a patient, loving person to help him boost his confidence.
