Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Monkey, a 5 to 6 year old precious Chihuahua. Monkey was found as a stray with no sign of responsible ownership. I call him my little Chunky Monkey as he weighs a little over 6 lbs., and could stand to lose a little weight. I don’t know how long Monkey lived as an abandoned stray, but due to his lack of care, his bones in his paws are not normal, the Vet thinks he may have been born that way. He also has bad knees and Grade 3 Luxating Patella, but he is not in any pain and gets around just fine. Monkey is also missing some teeth, but after his dental, his teeth are pearly white now. Monkey loves to curl up next to you on the couch, he doesn’t care for too much activity, probably due to his knees. He is looking for a low key home with a family that would love and care for him forever, preferably a home with no kids as he just likes to chill. Too much activity seems to stress him out, and he gets along with other dogs, but shows little interest in playing, not sure how Monkey is with cats.
Monkey is neutered, up to date on shots and microchipped, if you would like to open your heart and home to Chunky Monkey, please give Amy a call at 702-768-5856 or complete an interest application at www.ahome4spot.com.
