Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Attention! RIO here!
I am a son of DUTCHESS, my Birthday was April 22nd, 2016. I am a Havanese/Terrier/
Dachshund mix. I and my siblings are happy, healthy kids - the whole crew ;)
Our rescue is taking applications on us now we are ready for our own homes! Since we are just babies, we require a super clean environment, school age children ONLY. Clean hands are imperative, along with no shoe or wire chewing, no outdoor walks or public environments or grass that expose us to viruses like parvo.
We are tiny, only 3 to 4 lbs. Our mom doesn't look anything like us - She is reddish brown in color and looks like a Doxie. We don't know who our baby daddy was... he left the scene after he and mom partied one night... so here we are! All of us - adorable babies who were saved while we were still inside Mommys tummy in the parking lot of the Carson Animal Shelter where our family was dumping our mom and our auntie - who look like twins. We are precious and require patience, love and understanding with lots of training. We are a long term commitment and a lot of work for the first year but will reward you with love and loyalty for a lifetime! Please don't apply unless you can commit to caring for us and training us.
Thank you!
RIO
