Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Italian Greyhound / Mixed. Adoption Fee: 600. Kane is from Texas. He was brought into rescue after being confiscated during an animal cruelty investigation. Kane has been thriving since entering rescue, and now it's time to find him a home of his very own! Even with his rough start in life, Kane is a sweet boy. Kane has shown his spirited personality right from the start—the first volunteer to give him a bath described him as “a little hurricane!” Kane is a happy, energetic puppy who loves stuffed toys, warm fluffy beds, yak cheese chews and wrestling with other dogs. He’s polite with all adults, cats and dogs of all sizes. He is untested with children, but there's no reason to think it would be a bad fit, as long as the children are respectful and dog savvy. Kane enjoys soaking up the sunshine whenever he can. Cold weather and wet grass aren’t his favorite, but he’s more than happy to bundle up in a cozy sweater. While his foster is away, Kane stays in a kennel, and at night he sleeps in the foster’s bed. Kane is working on potty training and does his business outside when taken out. If you think this sweet pup would be the perfect addition to your family, please fill out an adoption application today.. He can't wait to meet you! They arrive in Minnesota on 02/20/2026 and will need to be picked up from the Ruff Start Rescue office in Princeton, MN between the hours of 8:30am and noon. Please plan for their arrival accordingly as we cannot accommodate pickups outside of this time frame. Since they haven’t arrived yet, they are available exclusively through Ruff Start’s Foster to Adopt (FTA) Program. Click here to learn more about the FTA program. Once they get to Minnesota, they might require further veterinary care. Ruff Start’s veterinary suite is located in Princeton, MN, and, as the foster, you will be required to transport your dog to and from these vetting appointments. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page. *Rescue puppies are notorious for losing their birth certificates before entering our rescue. We cannot guarantee the breed or size they will be full grown.* If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Italian Greyhuahua is a captivating hybrid breed, combining the spirited charm of the Chihuahua with the elegant grace of the Italian Greyhound. Originating from designer breed programs, these small companions typically inherit a slender, delicate build, often with the distinctive large ears of the Chihuahua and the refined muzzle of the Italian Greyhound. Their coats are generally short and smooth, coming in a variety of colors. Temperamentally, they are known for being affectionate and loyal, though they can exhibit a lively, sometimes feisty, personality. They are generally good for apartment living due to their size and moderate exercise needs, and can thrive in families that understand their need for a gentle environment and consistent training. Health-wise, potential concerns include patellar luxation, dental issues (common in Chihuahuas), and sensitivity to cold due to their thin coats. Early socialization is key to nurturing a well-rounded and confident companion.
