Why You’ll Love Zeke: A total character—spunky, affectionate, and full of charm Famous underbite that wins hearts instantly Loves to ride in the car and is leash trained Gets along well with other dogs Lap-loving snuggler once he knows and trusts you Playful and active, loves time in the yard Fully vetted and ready for his forever family About Zeke’s Breed Mix: Chihuahua Chihuahua mixes are known for their big personalities packed into small bodies. Bold, expressive, and confident, they often form deep bonds with their people and thrive on affection and attention. Their intelligence and curiosity make them engaging companions, while their loyal and protective nature ensures you’ll always have a devoted friend by your side. While they may be a bit bossy at times, Chihuahuas are full of heart, making them a delightful match for someone who loves spunky, spirited dogs. Zeke’s Story & Personality: Zeke is the perfect blend of sass and sweetness. With his adorable underbite and expressive eyes, he’s quick to charm—but he does best with a slow, gentle introduction. Once he knows you’re his person, expect lap cuddles, playtime in the yard, and lots of loyalty in return. He enjoys being with other dogs and gets along with every pup he meets. However, Zeke prefers to dine solo—he should be fed separately from other pets. He’s leash trained, loves car rides, and is up for new adventures with the right human by his side. Zeke isn’t your typical pocket-sized Chihuahua, but he brings all the boldness, loyalty, and spunk the breed is loved for. He needs an adopter who understands that trust takes time. Once that bond forms, though, you’ll have a best friend who’s affectionate, funny, and totally devoted. Zeke absolutely loves to walk, and would need someone willing to commit to that for his health and benefits (and yours too!) Zeke’s Perfect Home: Patient, understanding adopter who will let him adjust Fenced yard for safe outdoor play AND/OR an adopter committed to daily walks A home with or without other dogs (as long as meals are separate) Adults or older children who respect his boundaries Someone who appreciates the bold, expressive personality of Chihuahuas Ready to Make Zeke Yours? Zeke is neutered, fully vaccinated, and ready to find his forever home. If you love a dog with character, loyalty, and a little underbite flair, Zeke is your guy.
