Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Pepi is a small 5 year old chi/dachshund mix with a sturdy build and lots of energy. He loves to run around the yard, but comes back often for kisses and hugs. But he is just as content to sit in your lap and get attention. He is neutered and up to date on shots. He has a soft mouth and will politely take cookies and treats from your hand. Walks nicely on the leash and pays attention when spoken to. He would be easy to train in more advanced behavior and tricks. Pepi is a bit of a clown and is constantly coming up with new ways to make you laugh...including "burying his treats" under rugs or pine bark in the yard. Then finding them and looking again for a "safe" place for his treasure. But he does not dig or make a mess of the landscape. He is a very fastidious little guy, and is housebroken, using a doggie door and keeping is "home" very clean. He is very healthy and has years of great love and kisses to give a new companion.
Best with none or older children, and a smaller female dog would be fine. But he prefers to be the top dog, so not as good with other male dogs unless they were pretty submissive. Although he has shown no aggression with other dogs, he is more comfortable with females.
If you are interested in having a companion that will show you constant affection, and keep you laughing all the time, please consider adopting Pepi. Contact acterrier@aol.com or call 888-588-4557 to inquire about adoption. Small adoption fee to cover medical costs.
