Story
This boy is one of 32 we rescued from Louisiana, where animal welfare protections are almost nonexistent. Puppies there are often born into neglect — chainedup mother dogs, dirt yards, no food, no vet care, and no one looking out for them. Many are dumped, abandoned, or left outside in dangerous conditions.
Vinny is 2 years old and weighs just 18 pounds, but when you first see him you might think he’s still a puppy. He’s small, lightly built, and has those adorable longer legs that give him a youthful, bouncy look. His ears stick out to the sides, making him even more endearing. The shelter lists his breed as Miniature Pinscher and Chihuahua, and while that definitely fits his size and personality, we honestly thought he was a tiny Lab mix when he first arrived. He has that sweet little lablike body, gentle expression, and soft, loving nature that make you do a doubletake. We also see a touch of Rat Terrier in his structure and coloring. Vinny is a calm, wellbehaved boy who has been nothing but gentle and easygoing since arriving. He hasn’t been here long, and we are working on house training. All he wants is to be held and loved. This precious boy is truly someone you have to meet — once he’s in your arms, you’ll understand exactly why he’s so special.
