SIMBA *ARRIVING 3/9* - CHIHUAHUA / RAT TERRIER / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Posted Breed: Chihuahua / Rat Terrier / Mixed. Adoption Fee: 450. Say hello to Simba! He is a very sweet boy who loves loves loves to cuddle. Simba doesn't believe in personal space, his life goal is to be as close as possible to his humans. He also does a great impression of a parrot by sitting on your head! If a human isn't around to cuddle with, he can be found hanging out on the couch by himself, although he would prefer his humans be home ALL the time with him. He currently isn't very interested in playing with the other dogs in the home, observing the fun is fine for him. He gets along with other dogs, just isn't interested in playing. When his foster family isn't home is kenneled. Simba is mostly potty trained and is doing great with a consistent schedule. Simba currently lives with big and small dogs, cats and adults. He has not met any children under ten. He is skittish around playful dogs and would be most comfortable in a calm home. Simba is from Texas. They arrive in Minnesota on 3/9/2024 and will need to be picked up from the Ruff Start Rescue office in Princeton, MN between the hours of 5:30pm and 8:30pm.
