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

Description

Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 450. A gadget, a doohickey, a watchamacallit, a thingamajig...What are all these synonyms for? GIZMO!! That's me! And I'm on a mission to find my forever person. I am a handsome 2 year old terrier mix boy. At 7 pounds, I am full grown! Not to brag, but I have so many great things to share about myself that it's hard to choose where to start! I'll begin with telling you how much I love people. I am definitely a glass half full kind of guy--I trust everyone! I see the good in all humans. I love to be close to my people, snuggling is one of my favorite activities. They call me 90% lap dog! It'll be so easy to have me in your life; I'll let you touch my paws, my mouth, my ears, and I'm totally cool with it. Vet visits will be easy peasy Gizmo squeezy! That's the saying, right? I do love to spend time with my humans, but at night I might want to sleep in my own bed sometimes. I am not picky about food or toys--I'm very much a go-with-the-flow type of guy. I'm still working on potty training, but don't worry, I got this. I have a natural sense of right and wrong, so I won't be getting into much trouble, if any at all. I'm just a good boy! Whatever the energy of your home and pack is, I can adapt and match it. Got high energy speed racers zooming around and rough housing? I will run like the wind and tussle happily! Or maybe your home is slow and peaceful. I would love to snooze and chill and snuggle in that case! I am crate trained too, so no need to worry about me alone at the house when you're gone. I mean, I'm a good boy anyway, but just saying! I would be happy to have a pet sibling, but I can hold out on my own just fine. Like I said, I'm adaptable! Adoptable, even. If you've never had a dog before, I would be a great first time choice. I will make it easy for you and make you fall in love with being a dog mom or dad, guaranteed. So if you've been looking for the bestest bite-sized boy, look no longer! Reach out to my foster mom and come meet me before someone else does! I can't wait to meet you and love you. If you are interested in adopting/meeting this pup , please complete our online adoption application that you can find here: .starfishanimalrescue/adopt/dog-adoption-application . Your application will be reviewed by our team and if it is a good fit, we will send to the foster family to set up a meet! The adoption fee of $450 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe breed, since our pups all come from shelters we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed! *please note that we are a foster home based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.
