Miko is a one-year-old Chihuahua mix who’s had a tough start—he lost his original human and ended up at the shelter, but now he’s looking for a fresh start. He’ll need a home that can work with his wariness of strangers: Miko barks and puts on a show when meeting new people, but give him space, patience, and a pocketful of treats, and he’ll open up before long. Once you’re in his circle, you’ll have a loyal little shadow—Miko loves being by your side and doesn’t like to be left alone for too long. He’s great with his small foster siblings and especially enjoys playtime with his sister Daisy. You’ll find him happy on a leash and eager for outdoor walks. Because he can be vocal, Miko isn’t well suited to apartment or condo living. He’ll do best with older kids who understand his quirky side and a family that wants a close companion.
