JUSTIN - CHIHUAHUA (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Posted Breed: Chihuahua (short coat). Adoption Fee: 200. Meet Justin!!! He is looking for his fur-ever hero to adopt him. We think he is about 10-12 years old and would need a home that understands his needs. He's a very shy senior who has probably had a tough life prior to arriving at the shelter. He was skipped over by many rescues and adopter due to his shy and defensive behavior. Justin is more of a ladies man we think and would prefer a no kid, female only home. He does not like to be picked up or put on leash so he can be a challenge. He does like to sit on his blankets and enjoy some sunshine near the window. Justin requires a diet that includes some lunch meat mixed into his kibble.. yep turkey needs to be included if you want him to tolerate kibble.. hot dogs work too. I am assuming his life as a stray or unkept chi chi meant he was thrown scraps and developed a taste for the people food. We know we are looking for a unicorn of an adopter but felt this kid deserves a chance off the streets/shelter to have a real home.. He is located in Cave Creek, AZ for meet & greets. He is using potty pads and an x-pen but will go in a kennel if needed for traveling in and out of an enclosed dog run. Again.. he will not tolerate leash walking so you will need a place contained to make potty breaks better for all involved. Adoption Fee is $200. He has been vet checked, neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.
