About Petrie!

Petrie is a darling little Chihuahua mix puppy, born around April 24, 2025, and currently weighing 8 lbs. He's sweet, playful, and smart, with a love for romping around the house and yard playing chase with his dog buddies. Petrie adores stuffed toys, happily emptying the toy box to make a pile of his favorites, and he also enjoys bully sticks and other chewy bones. He's a charming pup who will keep you laughing with his silly antics and is patiently waiting for his forever family.

Ideal Home

Petrie would thrive in a home with a yard, as he's an alert barker and not suited for apartment living. He enjoys the company of other dogs and would benefit from a friendly canine companion to romp with and keep him company. While he is respectful of dog-savvy cats, he might chase shy kitties if they run. Due to his shyness with new people and potential to be overwhelmed, only dog-savvy, respectful children over 12 are recommended. He would also prefer to not live with overly dominant dogs, as they can intimidate him.

Ongoing Health

No specific health conditions or procedures were mentioned in the description.

Training & Support

Petrie is crate trained and doing well with house training. He's also learning to walk politely on a leash. He can be shy with new people and may be intimidated by overly dominant dogs. Petrie would do best with a person who has the time, patience, and willingness to help him adjust and feel comfortable in a new home. He would also like someone who is home the majority of the time, or at least not gone for long hours daily.
