GEORGE - CHIHUAHUA / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 425. George is a 1 year old chihuahua-dachshund mix with a heart as big as his love for cuddling. The moment he sees you, he flops onto his back for pets, and once you start the attention, he’ll happily melt into full-on lap-dog mode. Cuddling is his specialty, but he’s also a spirited tug-of-war champ when playtime rolls around. He is a fun little guy of about 12-14 pounds and is learning so much about being safe, trusting humans and how much love is in a home! This adorable boy is sweet, affectionate and eager to please. When meeting new dogs he can be cautious but this is true of a lot of abandoned dogs. George was found dumped at in a winery parking lot, so he just needs a little time for his fear to go away and realize he is safe. Once that happens he will be your adorable snuggle muffin! For all the scariness he experienced being on his own, George is making huge progress in his foster home but still has a few things he will need consistent reinforcement on. He is doing great with crate training and is mostly potty trained, though he’s still learning to signal when he needs to go out. He can also be a bit jumpy and mouthy when he gets excited but now knowing love he's excited to play with his fosters. Sometimes walks feel a little scary for him, but he’s also making steady progress with patience and practice. George is looking for someone who wants a loyal little shadow and a whole lot of love. If you’re hoping for a cuddly companion who greets every day with joy, George is your guy. Please submit an application as a first step at .HavenAnimalRescueNebraska if you'd like to meet him.
