About Tiny Tim

Looking for a furry tornado who will brighten up your life and fill your days with love and laughter?

Say hello to Tiny Tim (Tiny for short). He is an 8lb bundle of energy, an absolutely adorable and spirited long haired Chihuahua mix who gives off big dog energy in the cutest way. He loves to announce his arrival, or anyone else’s, with a bark built for a dog 3 times his size. With his long, fluffy cinnamon sugar coat, he may look like a sweet treat, but he's a brave and curious explorer at heart. So, if you're looking for a dog who will accompany you on all your adventures, Tiny is the perfect match. But don't worry, once you’re back from adventuring, he’ll be ready for some snuggles and pets. Tiny will melt your heart with his smile and then use that smile to make you forget he chewed your shoe. He loves his toys but also loves to chew other things, so if you don’t want to lose your favorite sweater or the remote, keep them put away.

Do not let his size fool you! He brings BIG energy and BIG personality to everything he does! In true Chihuahua fashion, Tiny is sweet, sassy, smart and absolutely thinks he’s the boss in the “best boss ever” kind of way. Originally, Tiny was part of a bonded pair but the more his confidence has grown, the more it’s clear he will thrive in a loving home with other dogs to play with. We’ve found that if he’s left unattended for too long, he will start to chew on things he shouldn’t so he should be crated when you’re not home or not able to keep an eye on him.

Ideal Home

Tiny will thrive in a home with at least one other dog to keep him engaged and active. He should be crated when left unsupervised to prevent chewing on inappropriate items.

Ongoing Health

Tiny's adoption fee of $525 includes his first 2 DAPP vaccinations, Bordetella, sterilization, heartworm test, deworming, flea preventative, and microchip.

Training & Support

Tiny is mostly house and crate trained, expecting to sleep in his crate at night and when you are away. He has access to a doggy door and large fenced yard. He has mastered "sit" and is working on "off" and "stay," though his stubbornness can sometimes be a challenge. Tiny is food motivated and eager to please. Remember, Tiny is a chewer! Keep clothes, shoes, and accessories put away to prevent them from becoming chew toys. He also gets carsick and should be crated when traveling.
