Meet Sebastian, a 9-week-old male Chihuahua/Terrier mix who is as charming as he is cuddly. Weighing in at a petite 3 pounds, Sebastian is a bundle of love ready to fill your home with joy. He was found abandoned with eight other puppies and is now thriving in a foster home in Austin, Texas. Sebastian's sweet, quiet nature makes him a champion snuggler, preferring gentle affection over boisterous play. He's a brave and social pup who we believe will do well with children, cats, and other dogs, provided they are gentle and experienced with small breeds. Because of his tiny size, any resident pets should be carefully introduced and all interactions supervised. Sebastian's parentage is unknown, so adopters should be prepared for a bit of mystery regarding his adult size and breed mix.
Ideal Home
Sebastian is looking for a family that can provide a nurturing environment for a young puppy. He would do best in a home where someone is present most of the time to help with his socialization and training. If you work outside the home for more than 4 hours, we require another adult in the household to care for him during the day. Please be sure to outline your puppy care plan in your application.
Ongoing Health
Sebastian is a healthy puppy but as with all young dogs, he will need ongoing care and attention.
Training & Support
Sebastian is still learning about the world and is working on potty training and crate training. He will need consistent training, frequent potty breaks, positive reinforcement, and plenty of patience. Puppies thrive with structure, routine, and supervision, and Sebastian is no exception.

Transportation
