Adopt a Chihuahua (short coat)
Ollie/TN the Dog needs a home
Ollie is a young, probably under 2 yrs old, male Chihuahua weighing in under 8 pounds. Ollie came to us terrified from the shelter. He really was unsure of most people he met his first day out. Boy has he made a turn around! In less than 1 week we saw a major turn around. This little boy is the most affectionate and happy pup with those people that he likes, he is still a Chihuahua afterall... they do only like who they like!
He is thriving in his foster home and really enjoying play time with all the other pups, he loves stuffed animals and running in the yard! As most Chihuahuas do, he loves laying in the sun outside! As much as Ollie likes to go go go he is also a fantastic snuggle bug! He loves to be close to his person when it's time to relax. Ollie's foster mom says he would make a perfect match for someone looking for an adventure partner in a small package! Ollie is not yappy at all, only barking to alert his person if he hears someone at the door or during play time if it gets really rambunctious.
Ollie is going to need a home with a fenced yard, or at minimum a very active adopter that would be open to regular trips to the dog park and/or long walks. We aren't joking when we say this boy loves to run!! We feel he would probably enjoy a home with another smaller dog for him to play with (but that isn't a requirement), we haven't tested him with large dogs or cats yet.
Ollie appears to be crate trained and we are fine tuning his house training skills. He is neutered, current on vaccines, microchipped and heartworm negative!!! All in all he is a great little dog that would make a nice companion for a variety of people!
