About BLT’s Breed:
Our best guess is that BLT is a Chihuahua mix. Chihuahuas are tiny dogs with bold personalities, known for their loyalty, confidence, and affectionate nature. Despite their small size, they often act like big dogs, making them spirited companions who bond closely with their families.
An ideal home for a Chihuahua is one that provides gentle handling, consistent routines, and lots of companionship. They thrive in apartments or houses alike, as long as they are kept safe, warm, and not left alone for long periods. Because of their delicate size, they do best in households where interactions—especially with children or other pets—are calm and respectful. With love and patience, Chihuahuas make devoted little companions who bring big personality to any home.

All About BLT:
BLT is super friendly and outgoing, always ready to play hard and then nap just as hard. He adores everyone he meets and has the best time romping around with his mom, Goldie, and his sister. His name has a sweet story—his foster mom shared her grilled cheese sandwich with BLT's mom, Goldie to help her feel safe and loved, and from that moment, BLT was named in honor of that special bond.

BLT’s Highlights:
• Playful and energetic, loves hard play sessions followed by cozy naps
• Social butterfly, loves people and enjoys playing with his mom and sister
• Adorable antics, always happy-go-lucky and full of puppy charm
• Special name story, inspired by a moment of trust and love with his mom

BLT is a joyful, affectionate pup who’s ready to bring laughter, cuddles, and endless fun to his forever family.
