Meet Sebastian, a 9-week-old (estimated DOB March 2026) male Chihuahua/Terrier mix who currently weighs 3 pounds but is expected to grow. Sebastian and his littermates were found abandoned in Houston and rescued. Despite his small size, Sebastian has a big heart and a sweet, cuddly nature. He loves to snuggle and is looking for a family to shower with affection. He's a brave and social pup who seems to be doing well with the idea of kids, cats, and other dogs, though any resident pets should be gentle and experienced with small dogs. Sebastian is ready to bring a lifetime of kisses and adorable mischief into your home!
Ideal Home
Sebastian would thrive in a home where he can receive plenty of attention and gentle interaction. Homes with other pets should ensure those animals are experienced and gentle with very small dogs, and all introductions should be supervised. He needs a family that is home more often than not to help with his puppy socialization and training needs, as he cannot be left alone for long periods.
Ongoing Health
Sebastian is a healthy young puppy. His exact breed mix and adult size are unknown, so adopters should be prepared for puppy surprises!
Training & Support
As with all puppies, Sebastian is still learning potty and crate training. Consistent training, frequent potty breaks, positive reinforcement, and patience will be key to his success. He will thrive with structure, routine, and supervision.
