Why I need a new home

Human health issues (e.g. allergies, sickness)

My story

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


Buddy, blonde male Chihuahua.
Birthday 5-20-2017, 7 years old. Adopted from shelter 12/2018. Very well behaved—especially for a Chihuahua (everyone comments on this).
*NOT good with kids of any age! Not kidding. We think he was dropped off at the shelter because of this.
Great with cats. Great with Big Dogs. NOT good with other small dogs.
His love languages are food and lap snuggles. His hope is to find a single/couple that will allow him in their laps or on the couch. We do not allow that due to severe allergies and he takes this personally. He hates to go potty in the rain, so he tries to fake it then come inside. He is house-trained, but if he has “faked” will pee when pet. His alerts for potty needs are subtle. He will appear to ask for petting and then back away or stand by the door. He will give a few notifications but if you wait too long he will go potty inside —wouldn’t you?
He loves baths as long as he can stand up on the edge.
He loves to wear his jackets and sweaters.
