Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Gizmo! Gizmo is a 9 pound Chihuahua/Miniature Pincher mix that was rescued after several months from a local shelter. His future is looking bright now and he is enjoying every moment of it! He is estimated to be around three years old and is a healthy little guy. He gets along with all types of dogs and is fine with cats. He lives in a foster home where he is the smallest dog and the largest dog is his 55lb foster brother Dexter! They love to play as you can see in the video! He is working on house training and is about 95% there! With regular breaks outside he should be 100% trained in no time! He is also kennel trained and walks well on a leash. Because Gizmo is such a little dog we are recommending he go to a home with no children under the age of 10 years of age (or possibly slightly younger with lots of dog experience). While he is a very friendly dog he is small, so sometimes he gets nervous if someone grabs him quickly or pulls at him when he needs his space. Gizmo is a total lap dog and would love to keep you company on the couch or curl up in your lap to read a good book! He already knows how to play fetch and really enjoys playing with toys and bones! Gizmo is up to date on all vaccines, neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and up to date on heartworm/flea preventative. Could Gizmo be a good fit for you?
