A little about them

Meet King, a loyal 2-year-old Chihuahua who thrives with patience, consistency, and time to build trust. Once you’re part of his circle, he’ll happily follow you around, curl up beside you, and become your devoted little companion.

Ideal Home

King is looking for an adult-only, single-dog home with someone who understands shy or fearful dogs and will let him build trust at his own pace. His adopter should enjoy daily walks and a quieter lifestyle. King has a human bite record from early in foster care, when he was scared and overwhelmed in a new environment.

Ongoing Health

King has intervertebral disc disease, a spinal condition in which a disc bulges or ruptures, and takes pain medication. His adoption fee includes his neuter, microchip, and vaccines.

  • Excellent house manners
  • Food motivated and eager to learn
  • Knows his “place” cue at mealtime
  • Enjoys long walks and sunshine
  • Sleeps through thunderstorms and fireworks
