Meet Sebastian! This adorable 9-week-old (estimated DOB March 2026) Chihuahua/Terrier mix is currently around 3 pounds and will continue to grow. He was found abandoned with his siblings in Houston and is now safe in a foster home in Austin, Texas. Despite his small size, Sebastian has a big personality, especially when it comes to snuggles! He's a gentle, loving pup who prefers quiet cuddles over chaos and is quickly becoming the resident expert snuggler. Sebastian is a brave and social little guy who is eager to explore the world and make a new best friend.
Ideal Home
Sebastian is looking for a home that can provide him with structure, routine, and plenty of supervision. Because he is still so young, he cannot be left alone for long periods of time. A home where someone is present most of the day is ideal for his socialization and training. If you work outside the home for more than 4 hours, we would consider your application only if another adult in the household is available to care for him during the day. Please be sure to detail your puppy care plan in your application. Sebastian is expected to do well with children, cats, and other dogs, but any resident pets should be gentle and experienced with very small dogs, and all interactions should be supervised.
Ongoing Health
Sebastian is a young puppy, and his exact breed mix and adult size are unknown. Adopters should be prepared for surprises as he grows. He is currently working on potty training and crate training and will need continued training and patience from his new family.
Training & Support
As with all puppies, Sebastian will need consistent potty training, crate training, frequent potty breaks, positive reinforcement, and patience as he learns. Puppies thrive with structure, routine, and supervision.
Application Details:
- Applications start by contacting us through Wags.
- If you seem like a good fit, we will schedule a phone interview.
- This is followed by a video call with the foster home.
- Virtual home visits, personal, and vet reference checks are required to complete the process.
Transporation
Sebastian is currently located in Austin, Texas. He is able to be transported once he is matched with an approved adopter. Transport is included in the adoption donation.
