My story

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

Chihuahua mix, 5 years old, adopted from a shelter. We were told he was found on the streets rummaging. Duke is a short haired breed, they said he was inbred and the limp he has is a deformity. He requires a Glucosamine tablet every day, he likes the chewy kind and takes it with no problem. He's skittish at first but once he's comfortable he's more than happy to sit at your feet. He gets along well with other dogs, cats, and kiddos. Don't want to get rid of him but we're not always at home and he keeps having accidents in the house, he's crate-trained but he'll go potty in his crate. In this Texas heat it's too hot to leave him outside all the time, it's cruel. I'd like to see someone who's able to be there for him, if you have a nice yard with lots of shade---even better. He loves being outside and sunbathing. I still have all his original paperwork from the shelter and shot records. He's not a needy dog, just has potty issues.
