My story

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

This is Walter! Walter was found as a stray covered in fleas and very thin. He is currently hw negative, neutered, utd on all vacs and preventatives, and much healthier! He walks well on a leash, is mostly houae trained and rides well in the car. Walter is a sweet sweet boy who loves to cuddle, plays fetch, loves the sunshine and wants to be wherever his human is. Walter would do best in a home with one other submissive dog around his size. He loves having a friend to play with but he is a more dominant personality. He is currently in a home with cats and other dogs, and he likes the cats...maybe a little too much. He wants them to play and chases them when they run. It would also be recommended that his future family be familiar with the chihuahua personality. While Walter is actually very friendly with everyone in our family, he does seem partial to females, he is protective of his people(and his food), and is slow to warm up to new people coming into the home. I would not recommend him for small children. All our dogs/cats are vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested, on preventions, and spayed/neutered if old enough.
