Story
Peanut is a 2 year old, 12lb Chihuahua mix with a big personality packed into a little body. He is a very active boy who loves to play and enjoys going for walks to burn off his energy. Peanut is still learning his manners he will need some continued work with jumping up and house training, as he spent much of his time kenneled but he is smart and eager to learn with consistency and patience.Once Peanut gets to know you, he is incredibly sweet and snuggly and enjoys being close to his person. He can be intimidated by strangers, so he is looking for a calm, low traffic home where he can feel safe and build confidence at his own pace. With a loving, understanding family, Peanut will make a loyal and affectionate companion.His adoption fee is $250. If interested in meeting Peanut, apply at www.foreverhomedogs.org!All adoptions are $300 per dog for puppies under 1 year, $250 for adults 1 - 9 years old and $150 for senior dogs which include spay/neuter, micro-chipped and up-to-date on required shots. Senior dogs, at our discretion, are adopted out at $150 per dog because we know they will have less time with your family and may eventually have more needs as they get older. But we feel these dogs deserve to live out the rest of their lives as part of a loving family.
