Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Chiquito here, or call me by my nickname, Chico (yeah, I know, it’s not very original, but it works…) Yo, some things you need to know about me, folks, I’m hairless. Yep, that’s right, hardly any fur. It has it’s positive side -- not too much shedding (yeah, I do have some hair), but the downside is I need coats in the winter and I need to be careful not to get a sunburn – OUCH! So let me tell you my story: had a wonderful family, they had some hard times and had to let me go. While I was getting myself “fixed” (man, I don’t even like to remember that day…) they discovered I had a fractured jaw (no memory of how that happened fortunately). But bad situations sometimes lead to happy endings, so onward and upward, folks. Turns out some human rescue found out about me (I’m pretty sure they go by M.A.I.N) and decided to help me get all fixed up. They did and I’m now 100% (minus two little important parts that I don’t want to talk about ever again!) So here’s the thing, I thought my life was going straight downhill after my “fixing”, but you know what, I was dead wrong. Life is great. Gee, I’ve been out on hikes (yeah all five pounds of me) and I got my teeth all cleaned up too! Who knew life could be this amazing. I even get to cuddle up with my humans on a daily basis and go to the dog park and hang out with my buddies. For me, this has been an amazing ride, but I need to keep going till I find my forevers. Wonderful as my foster is, she needs to make room for the next pooch, so here I am, ready to go. You will love me. I promise.
I am spayed, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped and come with my County license. My adoption fee is $175.
