My story

Little Guy is a gentle, sweet 5-pound boy whose owner recently passed away. He previously lived with his owner and his Chihuahua brother. He is shy and takes time to trust people, but he has made wonderful progress. He also has a playful side, with occasional play bows and happy circles.He warms up to dogs quickly and enjoys canine companionship. He was curious about my cat but now gives her space.He asks to go outside every 3–4 hours and has made good progress with house training, though he still has occasional accidents. He sleeps through the night but needs an early-morning bathroom break.His vet exam was reassuring except for significant dental disease. He will have a dental procedure and bloodwork next week, and most of his teeth will likely need to be removed. He occasionally makes a honking/raspy sound when excited; the cause is unknown.He needs a patient and gentle home with someone who will love him forever.

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