My story

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

Meet Rocky!

Howdy good friends, my name is Rocky! I'm just a little guy and only weigh 10 pounds as a senior. I'm the sweetest toot you'll ever meet. I get along with dogs my size, but I'm a bit intimidated by the bigger dogs, and puppies are a bit too much for me. I'd like my dog friends to be more of my speed. But I would also do fine with no other dogs in my new home, you know, so I can get all the attention and pets! I would do fine with respectful kids, too, not ones who are too rowdy. I also do well with cats, taking naps with them throughout the day. I'm a good boy and use potty pads if I have to go potty, but I'm sure learning to go outside to do my business would be fairly easy. I just want to make my humans happy.

I do really well being left alone, and I'm not destructive in any way. But if you want to take me with you wherever you go, I do really love car rides, and meeting new people isn't scary to me in the least. I enjoy a good snacky, so a pup cup would be right up my alley! My most favorite thing is just to be by my humans. In true Chihuahua fashion, I'll vocalize when you leave me, and I'll let you know when I hear an unfamiliar noise, so apartment living wouldn't be ideal for me. Are you looking for a cute little lap dog that you can take with you everywhere? Then I'm the guy for you!
