Story
Little Johnny has such a big personality! This little rat terrier/dachshund mix fella only weighs about 10 pounds and can easily be picked up with one hand, but he makes his presence known. He’s a good alert pup and will run with the big dogs, as much as his little legs will let him. This little guy is not afraid of anyone or anything.
He was born around the beginning of August 2026, and was found dumped on a dirt road with his sister June. Surprisingly, he is not much of a chewer, especially for a puppy. We have noticed that he might not be a hug fan of kids, but he has grown up with cats and is fine with them.
Johnny is crate and house trained, sleeps through the night, and loves lounging in the sun in his x-pen. He loves being held, though he likes to run, so will ask to get down after a few minutes. But he stays close by in the yard. Johnny has had age-appropriate shots, dewormer, and flea/heartworm prevention. He will be neutered before going to his new home. We don’t get many small dogs in foster, so if you’ve been waiting on a smaller breed dog, now is your chance!
