About Rogue

Rogue is a 4-year-old male Chihuahua, weighing about 6 pounds and living up to his name with a personality that's equal parts mischief and charm. This pint-sized pup embodies the classic Chihuahua 'tiny tyrant' reputation, having been raised with little to no boundaries. Prepare for a challenge if you want to keep your fingers intact; he will need dedicated training to help curb his fiery attitude. That said, Rogue has a sweet side as well—he is fiercely loyal, cuddly, and tends to stay glued to your side when he chooses to be affectionate. Expect some theatrical antics and plenty of drama from this little guy. Rogue might growl if you try to take charge, but he’s wonderfully social with most dogs, a fan of car rides, and surprisingly good on a leash. In fact, he’s known to walk on his hind legs to beg for attention or a snack. Due to his spirited attitude, he needs an adult-only home where experienced dog owners will appreciate his quirks. If you're drawn to unique challenges and have patience, Rogue could be your perfect match. His foster mom adores him, and it’s likely you will too. To start the adoption process, reach out via email.
