Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Horchata!
Horchata is a male likely Shiba Inu/ Chihuahua Mix born approximately November 2020.
He is a gentle quiet guy that loves to cuddle and snuggle.
He can be a bit shy with people when first interacting but quickly warms up. He is especially fond of being scratched under the chin and chest and takes treats from the hand very gently. He gets along well with other dogs of all sizes and genders, and currently lives with several dogs and children in his foster home-cats are unknown.
He would benefit from a home with moderate activity and other canine companions of similar size and energy. He is working on leash walking and basic commands. His best fit home is one that will continue to work to develop his skills. He is treat-motivated so training with Horchata is fun. Horchata is crate trained (but would prefer not), well-behaved, and trustworthy in the house when alone. He is continuing to work on potty training and uses a doggie door but dislikes the snow ?. He weighs in at about 12 lbs and is up to date on vaccinations, neutered, and micro-chipped. Horchata is now accepting applications for his forever best home to soak up the snuggles. We are seeking a home for him with a securely fenced yard and if there are children in the household, over the age of 5. Applications can be accessed at www.mikeyschance.com
