My story

I am in a foster home and not at the shelter. If you are interested in adopting, submit an adoption questionnaire by email. Learn more hereThis dog is available to meet by appointment only. This sweet 6-year-old Chi/Terrier mix is a gentle soul with a playful heart, ready to find a loving family. Abbott started out a little unsure at the shelter, but in foster care, he’s truly blossomed—cuddly, curious, and learning new things every day! Abbott is a total lovebug who enjoys belly rubs, cozy blankets, and quietly following his people around the house. Though shy at first, Abbott warms up with a little time and becomes your biggest fan, full of kisses and tail wags. He enjoys games like hide-and-seek and puzzle toys, and he’s discovered how fun neighborhood walks can be (squirrel watching is a favorite pastime!). Abbott’s treat-motivated, eager to please, and even likes having his paws cleaned—how charming is that? He’s potty-trained, sleeps through the night, and enjoys a calm, predictable routine. Abbott is happiest around other small, confident dogs and would thrive in an adult-only home with a canine buddy to help show him the ropes. He's currently working through some separation anxiety, so he’s looking for a patient adopter who can help him build confidence when home alone. Are you looking for a sweet snuggle buddy for you and your small dog(s)? Click here to learn how to adopt and submit your adoption questionnaire. April 23, 2025, 4:47 pm

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Abbott, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
