Story
Paco is a 6-year-old Italian Greyhound/Chihuahua mix weighing 10.6 pounds. He hasn't had a fair start in life; his original owners kept him confined because he barked too much and sometimes muzzled him. He also didn't get much socialization. We did our best to provide him with a home and to socialize him, but we plan on moving overseas and cannot take him with us. Once comfortable, Paco is affectionate and playful—he'll chat, show his belly, and play fetch. He's a couch potato who loves snuggling with trusted people or relaxing in his crate. He's easygoing with minimal maintenance needs but does take anxiety medication. He’s house-trained, leash-trained, and knows basic commands, including sit, come, lie down, and shake. He needs a calm owner who understands small dogs. Adoption fee covers the cost for vet visits and shots to get him up to date. Has valid rabies vaccine and all of his shots.

Story
Ruthie was rehomed to me from a lady with small kids , she has bitten them a few times so she came to me. I had only met her at the time of pickup so i only knew what she told me. She will use a pad to pee in the house or on a walk. She is snappy towards me and has bitten me twice. She is very sweet other than that. Very little training.

Story
Adopted from a rescue about 10 years ago We live in a house with a fenced in yard out in the country for most of that time. I moved to Richmond for a job and they don’t love apartment life. I think it would be better if I could be with them more but I work long hours. Sweet dogs but do bark quite a bit.
