Rio

Rio is a 1-year-old, 19lb Chihuahua & Dachshund mix who is a little shy at first but quickly warms up to become an affectionate and loyal companion. He enjoys hiding in blankets and seeking out quiet moments of connection. Rio gets along wonderfully with cats and other dogs, though he benefits from slow introductions to larger dogs to help him feel more comfortable. He is already potty trained and crate trained, and his current foster home provides him with 24/7 crate access, which he seems to enjoy.

Ideal Home

Rio would thrive in a calm home environment where he can feel safe and secure, and he would do best in a home without young children. A fenced-in yard is essential to help him continue building confidence with leash walking in a secure space.

Ongoing Health

No specific health concerns are noted in his description.

Training & Support

Rio is still learning leash manners and would benefit from an adopter who can patiently help him build confidence with walking. Consistency and encouragement will help him blossom.
