Tiny

My story

Meet Tiny !! This guy is so sweet! He’s fun loving and so tolerant. He’s so good with other dogs and loves to play. A great addition to most any family. Tiny is an approx 2 year old male. He currently weights 33 pounds and is full grown. When we agreed to take him in we were told he was a chihuahua….clearly he is not 😂 He seems like a mix breed likely some pittie in there. He has already been neutered, microchipped and updated on his vaccines. He is sadly heartworm positive however his treatment has already been started and is included in his adoption. Tiny LOVES other dogs. He has so far been a fantastic playmate for every dog he’s met. He can pretty much play or hang with any dog we’ve thrown at him. Big, small, hyper, chill, he’s so good with them. An awesome little playmate. He also loves to play with his people. He likes fetch, chase and anything fun. He plays hard then turns into a cuddly snuggle buddy. He has lived with kids and does great with them. He has also lived with cats and done great with them as well. He was given away by his family because he growled at the cats but only through his kennel and only while he was eating his food. Otherwise he was fine with them. Tiny seems to have spent a lot of time in his kennel before coming to us. He’s loving life with a more normal schedule. His training was a little behind for his age but it seems like no one ever taught him. He’s learning so quickly and has been such a good boy. When he arrived he seemed to think he was just supposed to just potty in the crate. After a few days of being let out regularly we are seeing a huge difference. He will still occasionally pee in there if he hasn’t been let out quick enough or is given to much water but he’s overall doing good with it. It’s rare for him to have a potty accident anymore. Tiny is great on car rides. He loves meeting anyone and everyone. He is crate trained he just doesn’t like to go in willingly sometimes. I think once he fully realizes he won’t be in there for prolonged periods of time anymore he will feel more comfortable with it. He’s new to leash training but not too bad. He’s doing well with a harness. Hes had no trouble sharing food, treats or toys with humans. We haven’t seen any issues sharing with other animals however he will growl if an animal comes near his crate when he’s eating. We just feed him separately to avoid any issues. He was thin when he arrived so he may feel he has to protect his food from other animals to get enough. Tiny really is a great little guy. He’s a great medium size boy with so much love to give. He is super sweet and loving. He would merge well into most home settings. Overall a truly awesome dog. ➡️Vet and home checks required. Located in Hampton VA.
