Shorty

Shorty is a 6-year-old, 6 lb long-haired Chihuahua with a gentle soul and a heart that blossoms beautifully once he gets to know you! He's a love bug at heart who becomes deeply devoted once he trusts you. Shorty prefers calm, gentle people and has a soft spot for women. He is potty trained and pee pad trained for easy indoor and outdoor routines, and crate trained but also trustworthy when left out for short errands. This dog-friendly sweetheart thrives with canine siblings and is likely cat-friendly thanks to his calm, submissive nature. Shorty is a lower energy companion who enjoys a peaceful, cozy lifestyle. He has a submissive and gentle temperament and needs patient leash training and a family willing to give him time and space to blossom.

Ideal Home

Shorty would thrive in a home that offers calm energy, patience, and consistent routines. He is not demanding, pushy, or high-octane, making him a perfect companion for a quieter household. He would do well with adopters who can provide soft introductions to new people and regular potty breaks.

Ongoing Health

All assessments regarding breed and age are conducted by licensed veterinarians.

Training & Support
