Here's what the humans have to say about me:
We saved Lestat from one of the worst shelter we have ever been to. Not through any fault of these, they get about 50 to 100 dogs in a day. They are right near the borders of Mexico and spaying and neuter is not seen much down there. So that being said there are dogs running around everywhere. The shelter is trying the best they can to get it under control and have gone from 100% kill to 85% thanks to rescue coming in to help save lives. We drove 36 hours round trip to save Lestat and 20 other dogs. We do have a video of us coming back with a minivan full. This is the second time we have gone down to help. Lestat is very unique in colour. We think he is a long haired Chihuahua mix. Anything else is kind of a mystery and one of those he is what ever you want him to be. He is very sweet and loving and great with other dogs and kids. He has not had any issues with cats either. He is fully vetted meaning, fixed, had 3 x parvo/distempers shots 3 weeks apart, bordetella, rabies, micro chipped, heartworm negative, dewormed and on monthly prevention.
