My story

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

Meet Blackie--our sweet foster dog from Utah Lost and Found Pets Rescue up for adoption! He's a 2 yr old Mini-Pinscher/Chihuahua mix, we think--about 15 lbs. He is the most cuddly dog ever--he would literally lay on my lap on the couch all day if we'd let him. He doesn't drool or shed, and he's super playful with other dogs at the dog park. We don't know much about his past, except that he was super skinny when we got him, and we think he was an outside guard dog before. We're working on crate-training him and he's doing awesome with it, but he's trustworthy without the crate, too, because he just sleeps when we're gone. He is in foster care because he gets anxious with new situations and people, which makes it hard to get adopted, but he took about 24 hours to warm up to us and now he has awesome recall at the dog park (we've had him only 4 days) and he is like a velcro dog at home.
