Colby | 4-Year-Old Chihuahua | Tiny Boy, Big Personality Don’t let his small size fool you—10-pound Colby is packed with personality and charm! This caramel-colored cutie has settled in beautifully at his foster home and loves being near his person. While he’s not a traditional lap dog, he’s perfectly content snuggling up beside you and resting his head on your arm like the sweet boy he is. Colby’s got a few adorable tricks up his sleeve, too! He’s known for his crowd-pleasing “beg” pose and loves to show off by dancing on his hind legs for treats. It’s his own signature version of a high five. While Colby has warmed up to one of the lady dogs in his foster home (he loooooves her!), he’s not a big fan of larger dogs and would do best with fellow Littles or as your one-and-only. He does well with slow introductions and takes his time getting to know new people and dog friends(typical Chihuahua, right?). He’s not super into toys right now, but Colby is definitely motivated by food and affection. He knows basic cues like “come,” “sit,” “no,” and “off,” and he’s working on politely accepting treats and keeping all four paws on the ground when saying hello. He’s crate trained and almost fully house-trained, especially with a consistent routine. Colby’s ideal home is calm and low-key, with older children and patient adopters who understand the quirky, lovable nature of Chihuahuas . With a little time and a lot of love, Colby promises to reward you with loyalty, cuddles—and plenty of charming high fives. If you and the dog are a good match then we'll connect you with our dog's foster parents to chat more in-depth. If both you and the foster agree that the dog is a good fit then a meet and greet is scheduled. We require applicants' dogs to meet ours to ensure they get along.

Our adoption fee covers the following: Spay/neuter Microchip DAPP vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog. Rabies vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog.
