Here's what the humans have to say about me:
This is Vinny. We think that he is a Chihuahua/Dachshund mix male. Little Vinny came to us as a found stray. After properly reporting him as a found dog, no owner has come forth and we are moving forward to try to find little Vinny a good home. Our vet thinks Vinny is about 2 yrs old and only weighs about 7 lbs. We noted that this little fellow loves to be held and is very comfortable around children. He is pretty friendly with other small breed dogs as well. He also might do just fine in a home with cats; a meet and greet might tell us how he might do with your current pets.
Vinny is crate trained and keeps his crate clean and dry. While running around in the house, he uses a bellyband while he works on his housetraining manners. Note: check out www.bellybands.net. Vinny is also learning how to walk on a leash and he rides fine in the car as well.
Vinny is neutered, microchipped, and current on vaccinations. If you are interested in adopting Vinny, we ask that you visit our website, www.friendsofcanines.org and click on Adoption Process and fill out an adoption application. Vinny's adoption fee is $150. Thank you for considering a rescued pet.
