My story

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

READ FULL ADOPTION POST

Hey world, we’d like you to get reacquainted with our Twig. He was briefly adopted out, and it didn’t work out. But that’s okay. This adorable guy had a rocky start, but he's been blossoming in the care of an amazing foster and her pup. Twig's past is a mystery, while we know he was abandoned and emaciated…what he went through prior had to be bad. He is scared of being hurt by those he doesn’t know, and he cowers with fear when a voice is raised. He's got a heart as big as his loyalty, and he's fiercely protective of his chosen humans, kind of like a pint-sized chihuahua with a heart of gold.

Now, Twig's looking for a special human with a PhD in "Rescue Dog Rehab," preferably a widow or a lone ranger – no kiddos or party animals please. We're talking about a tranquil, zen-like household here, folks. But here's the magic of Twig: when he loves, he loves with all his heart. You'll never find a more loyal and devoted dog. We say that a lot, but we truly mean it with Twig. His love is nothing short of inspiring.

We’ve had him working with a trainer, and he's come a long way. Once he trusts you, you'll see just how sweet and loving he can be. His adoption process will include a few meet and greets with him and the trainer for a smooth transition and to provide you with the tools to understand and support him. Here's the cool part - he's great with other dogs, so if you've got a four-legged friend, they'll be instant BFFs. He is crate trained and housebroken. He can get bored and can occasionally chew, so toys are a must! Twig's hobbies include cuddling, soaking up the sun, earning treats like a pro, and going on car rides. He's a laid-back dude, always happy to be by your side.

So, if you're a compassionate, patient, and experienced dog owner, ready to open your heart to Twig's quirks and all, reach out to us and help share his story!
