My story

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

Awww, look at this handsome ‘llil chubster! Fredrick is a gleeful 8-year old, 23-pound Chihuahua/Dachshund mix who loves ALL humans almost as much as he loves life itself! Fredrick truly believes he is an actual person…and while he is totally capable of being independent, he’s at his happiest when he’s got someone else to hang out with.
Ricky - a nickname he clearly responds to - is great around other dogs, and he seems fond of kids too…even young ones. He yearns to be pet all the time, and taking this social butterfly out for a walk is never just a two-minute deal because Ricky expects affection from everyone he meets. Rick’s so friendly, he will plop himself down, next to a total stranger, and roll over for a belly rub.
Ricky shows virtually no interest in toys, but dangle a treat before his eyes, and his face lights up like a Christmas tree! Yummmmm-o! It doesn’t take much to make Ricky happy. Ricky’s tail is always wagging and he acts like the most cheerful dog on the planet.
Completely housebroken, Ricky’s does all his bathroom business outside and is always ready, willing, and able to go for a walk. He has superb leash manners and oftentimes, merrily skips along the sidewalk on his way to the park. He has been learning the commands sit and down, and is calm and attentive while receiving training and instruction. He has no use for pee pads or crates, as he is 100% trustworthy and non-destructive in the home. He thinks all toys and treats were meant for sharing and he’s fine if you want to play with, or take a taste of, anything that’s his. What a sweetheart this fella is!
Ricky is a mellow, non-reactive love machine who wants nothing more than a family to chill with, humans to snuggle with, and a cozy place to call home. Like fine wine, Ricky is aged to perfection! He’d make a fabulous BFF for anyone who values the companionship, loyalty and love that a senior dog has to offer.
