Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Trooper is a tiny, pint-sized ball of happiness! He is estimated to be about 9 yrs old and weighs in at a whooping 4.5 lbs! A scruffy little mix of Yorkie Terrier and Chihuahua, this guy would love to be toted around in your arms, or be in command of your army of garden gnomes in your backyard. Trooper is a great companion animal. He loves to sit on the couch and chill out, he is great at Jeopardy, but hates Wheel of Fortune. Trooper is great with other dogs and other animals. He likes the company of other dogs (big or small), but does not necessarily play with them, just more likes being around them. Trooper would do best in a home where someone is home more often than not and/or where he has access to a fenced backyard where he can explore, sun himself and relieve himself during the day. Trooper prefers running around in an open yard or dog park to get his exercise, as opposed to leash walks. With a yard to run in, he would barely even need a formal walk! (He does walk well on a leash, but would rather be free to sniff & explore.) He is a low maintenance little guy who is looking for a lotta love!
