Pickles and Chico are a bonded pair, and their history has cemented their bond, so we feel it’s healthier for both to be adopted and kept together. Pickles has lived his life on the streets since he was very young. Chico came into the picture about a year ago when he was found and cared for by the duo. Their former owner cared for them and loved them and got them whatever they needed, so they come from a loving situation. Pickles is up for any adventure. He loves a good hike or a slow day at the park with endless belly rubs. Chico is full of energy and a new human will have to earn his trust, although it only takes a day or so and some yummy treats! He is less trusting than Pickles but comes around quickly and is lovely. It will take some getting used to for them, as they lived in parks and such, but they are smart and will catch on to a good thing and a comfy couch to cuddle on. Could this street-savvy, fabulous pair be what you’re looking for? They say “yes!” Pickles and Chico were great on a hike today, covering 2.7 miles and Chico was still eager to go! Pickles was done by then. Both were great in the car, with Pickles just chilling, but Chico definitely wanted to be co-pilot and have a clear view of the road at all times! Pickles pulled for the first couple of miles, but never in a lunging or chasing manner; he’ll definitely need a strong handler or more leash work. They were both non-reactive to other dogs and joggers on the path. They noticed squirrels, birds, and lizards but never went after them. Overall, it was a delightful day hike, and they are so great with each other.
