My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Chihuahua / Maltese mix; Male; 10 months; 9 ½ pounds
Roadrunner has had a rough start to life. He was rescued from a puppy mill where he was not given the love and care he deserved and because of that he has not learned to trust humans easily. Roadrunner will need extra TLC and patience while he learns what it is like to be a companion pet. If you have the time and love to devote to a sweet little pup to teach him to love again then come meet our Roadrunner. If you are interested in Roadrunner, please read the following article to understand the challenges an adopter of a dog from a puppy mill may face.
