Diego

Diego is an 8-year-old Terrier/Shih Tzu mix who is ready to be your loving companion! While he may have seemed difficult at the shelter, his foster family discovered he simply dislikes being picked up. We're not sure why, but it's important for his new family to understand and respect this. Aside from this, Diego is a kind dog who gets along wonderfully with other dogs. He would do best in a home with older children or teenagers who can appreciate his needs.
