Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Chewy is an adorable little 2 year old Yorkie/Dachshund mix who loves his toys and loves to play. He would be best in an adult home as he can be nippy in new situations. He is a lot of fun and he loves other little dogs. He would be great in a home with other dogs. Chewy was grandma's lap dog and then the kids moved in and he became very afraid and nippy. This happened when he was still a pup and we've already seen great progress with the proper reinforcement. Chewy is shy with new people, but if you give him a few minutes he's soon on your lap. He does not like to be picked up, but would rather call the shots by getting in your lap when he's ready. Experience with small dogs is a must and a home without children is required for this sensitive soul. Chewy is available now.
