Sebastian, a 9-week-old male Chihuahua/Terrier mix, is a tiny bundle of affection who loves nothing more than a good snuggle. Found abandoned on the streets of Houston with eight other puppies, Sebastian is now safe in a foster home in Austin, Texas, and ready to find his forever family. Despite his small size, Sebastian has a big heart and a gentle spirit, making him the perfect companion for anyone seeking a loving best friend. He's a brave and social pup who, with appropriate introductions, is expected to do well with children, cats, and other dogs. However, due to his delicate size, any resident pets should be gentle and experienced with very small dogs, and all interactions must be supervised. As his exact breed mix and adult size are unknown, be prepared for a bit of mystery and many delightful puppy surprises!
Ideal Home
Sebastian is looking for a family that can provide a stable and loving environment. He needs a home where someone is present more often than not to support his socialization, training, and care. If you work outside the home for more than 4 hours a day, an application will only be considered if there is another adult in the household available to care for him during the day. Please be sure to clearly outline your puppy care plan in your application.
Ongoing Health
Sebastian is a young puppy and currently healthy.
Training & Support
Sebastian is still working on potty and crate training. Consistency, frequent potty breaks, positive reinforcement, and patience are key to his success. Puppies thrive with structure, routine, and supervision, and Sebastian will need a family committed to helping him grow into a confident, well-mannered adult dog.
