My story

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

Willy
Chihuahua/Italian Greyhound Mix/White & Brown
Male
7 years old
10 lbs.
Hi there! Is that a lap I see? I’d love to keep it warm for you, because I’m Willy and I’m a lovable lap dog!
I’m an incredibly cuddly little guy who loves nothing more than lounging on the couch with someone. In fact, a nice long walk and then a day spent doing the couch potato thing is my dream day! I have low to medium energy, though I do get the zoomies from time to time to keep things extra cute. It takes me a little bit of time to warm up to people, but once they sit down I will leap onto their lap!
I love other dogs and would enjoy having a canine companion at home to keep me company when you’re away. I spent the last two years living in a nursing home so I was used to having a person around 24/7. So I do get separation anxiety and howl when left alone (it’s probably best if I live in a home without shared walls). I’m working on perfecting my potty training and recently did an amazing job when visiting a friend with a yard. I’m crate trained and know the cue “Go to bed,” as well as “Sit” and “Calm down.” I’m a little fearful after all I’ve been through so I’m ready for a loving forever home to help me feel safe and loved. If you love me, I promise to love you right back!
