BUTCH - CHIHUAHUA / TERRIER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Say hello to Butch! Butch was surrendered with another dog (Sundance) when their former owner passed away and family could not care for them. Butch is an approximately five-year-old, 19-pound Chihuahua mix; the perfect small/medium size. Butch and Sundance are buddies, but we have realized they aren't bonded and CAN go to separate homes. They are quite different dogs, but if you are looking for a duo, they are a ready-made pair. :-) Butch would make a wonderful little adventure buddy. He has a great moderate energy level and loves to go on walks. When faced with stairs, he bounded up them, two at a time and then looked back like -that was fun, let's do it again! Butch is super curious and loves to explore every nook and cranny he can get his paws in. We think he would actually be a super sturdy little hiking buddy! Butch is a sweet guy but he does have an independent streak. He's happy sniffing around on his own and may not come up to you right away. When Butch does decide that he wants some lap time, he will also give you kisses- and it is a heart-melter! Butch does well with other dogs he's met at the shelter. He can be social and slightly playful, but he's also fine doing his own thing. We don't think Butch would mind being an only-dog OR having a canine pal in his new home. Does Butch sound like the little buddy you've been looking for? Email chitownrescuegmail for more information/meet and greet appointment! Butch is previously neutered and up to date vaccinations will be included in the adoption fee.
