Milky Way is a charming Chihuahua boy who weighs about 8.6 lbs. Born on January 10, 2026, he's a playful, happy, and affectionate dog who loves to run and be part of the action. He's generally quiet and doesn't bark much, but his sweet personality speaks for itself. Milky Way is friendly with dogs, children, men, and women, making him an easy addition to many households. He sleeps in an open crate at night and is comfortable using it as his safe space. Like most young dogs, he is curious and enjoys chewing, so he will need patience and guidance as he continues to mature. Milky Way's journey began in difficult circumstances, but thankfully, he was rescued and is now safe and loved, searching for a forever family to give him a lifetime of devotion.
