Lupe Rio

My story

Lupe is a Chihuahua-Dachshund mix with a big personality! He can be introverted and protective, preferring a quiet home where he can relax and enjoy his favorite snacks. Though he can seem to be a bit grumpy when he first meets new people, he's just scared. Once he knows he can trust you, he’s a loyal companion who likes to hang out right next to his human. He just needs some patience and love. Lupe is very reliably potty-trained and will go to the door when he wants to go out. He gets along with other small dogs when they are properly introduced. Lupe has a loud bark so would not be ideal for a shared-walls situation. He likes a fenced-in yard but would be happy with leash walks. He prefers female dogs to male ones, but with a strong human leader he will adapt to having a fur brother. Lupe is smart. He watched another foster who had to be crate-trained because of chewing issues, go into his crate after each trip outside and get a treat. So, Lupe decided us to show that he is crate-trained as well! He enjoys his treats! 11/21/24, 12/21/24 CG
