About Senor Pickles

Señor Pickles is a 9-year-old chihuahua mix with plenty of energy for his age and a strong opinion about who he lets into his inner circle. He’s a small guy at 12 pounds, recently had a dental, and while a few teeth are missing, the rest are in great shape. House trained and crate trained, Señor Pickles approaches life with a lapdog’s confidence. He adores cuddling and will insist on being close—expect a little shadow trailing you from room to room. Chest and belly rubs, sunbathing, and treats rank among his greatest joys. He’s particularly fond of women but not so wild about men. Other animals are fine in his book, though big dogs can make him nervous—he knows his size and keeps his distance when things get rowdy. He’s independent enough to be left home, but you’ll be greeted with enthusiasm when you return. If you want a devoted sidekick with some chihuahua attitude, Señor Pickles is up for the job.
