Sebastian, a charming 9-week-old male Chihuahua/Terrier mix, is ready to steal your heart! Weighing in at a petite 3 pounds, this little guy is sure to grow into a wonderful companion. Sebastian and his siblings were found abandoned, but this sweet pup is now safe and sound, dreaming of a loving forever home. He's a quiet snuggler who prefers cuddles to chaos, always happy to be held. Sebastian is a brave and social pup who has quickly become the group's number one snuggler. He is gentle, loving, and happiest when curled up in your arms.
Ideal Home
Sebastian is looking for a family committed to helping him grow into a confident, well-mannered adult. He would likely do well with children, cats, and other dogs, provided introductions are done gently and appropriately. Due to his small size, any resident pets should be gentle and experienced with very small dogs, and all interactions should be supervised. Potential adopters should be prepared for the mystery of his mixed breed and unknown adult size. Sebastian cannot be left alone for long periods; a home where someone is present most of the time is essential for his socialization, training, and care. If you work outside the home for more than 4 hours, an application will only be considered if another adult is available to care for him during the day, and a detailed puppy care plan must be provided.
Ongoing Health
There are no specific health conditions mentioned for Sebastian.
Training & Support
As a young puppy, Sebastian is still learning potty and crate training. His new family should be prepared to continue consistent training using positive reinforcement and plenty of patience. Puppies thrive with structure, routine, and supervision, and Sebastian will do best with this approach.
