p;rsquo;t allow him indoors. Realizing the situation wasn’t going to change, his owner decided to surrender him to rescue so he could have the life he deserves. Tyson came into the rescue overdue for medical care but was fortunate to test heartworm negative despite having lived outdoors without protection. He was already neutered but needed updated vaccines, diagnostics, and major dental work. Now, he’s thriving in foster care and showing everyone what an awesome little dog he is. Tyson is naturally social with both people and dogs. He enjoys being part of a pack but would also be perfectly content as an only dog soaking up all the attention. He follows his foster parents from room to room and loves being near his humans. Don’t let his “senior” age fool you, Tyson still has plenty of pep! He walks at a fast clip, zips from room to room, jumps onto the bed with ease, and happily plays with toys. While he loves to snuggle and nap, he’s no couch potato. He enjoys a few short walks each day, may bark occasionally, but responds well to verbal correction. Tyson’s foster family describes him as extremely cuddly and says that he fancies himself a lap dog. At night, he sleeps in bed with them, often burrowed under the covers, as any self-respecting Chihuahua would. This charming little guy is house-trained, crate-trained, and greets visitors with ease. Sweet, loving, and full of personality, Tyson is ready for his forever home. He’s going to make some lucky adopter very happy. Apply today!
