About Myles
If you’ve ever wanted a dog who seems like he’s seen it all and lived to tell the tale, Myles is ready to bring you a special brand of joy. He’s a 14-year-old chihuahua with the look and attitude of a retiree who’s earned his grumpy wisdom. He has the face of someone reminiscing about the good old days—and the antics to match. Myles isn’t interested in long walks or new adventures. He prefers his meals on time, his naps respected, and his head scratched when he sees fit. He’ll bark during dinner prep—his way of making sure he isn’t forgotten. You’ll see him wandering around the house like he's searching for the remote, or coughing from his old trachea injury. None of this slows him down much. He’s not housebroken; sometimes he tries, but mostly, he figures life is too short for formality. Crates are a non-starter for Myles, but he loves sprawling on a cozy bed (sometimes leaving a surprise for you). He’s hard of hearing, his eyes aren’t what they used to be, and he’s delightfully creaky, but he’s mellow, sweet, and takes his pets like a dignified old king. Myles gets along with both dogs and cats and does best in a quiet home with someone who gets his sense of humor and his pace of life. If you see yourself with a senior chihuahua who falls asleep in the chair with the TV on, he’s the one. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
