This charming 2-year-old, 18-pound Italian Greyhound and Chihuahua mix has the long, elegant legs of an adventurer and a sweet, affectionate nature that makes him a perfect cuddle buddy at the end of the day. Astro's journey began on a challenging note when he was found abandoned on the side of a road in New Mexico. Thankfully, a compassionate Good Samaritan came to his aid, bringing him to safety. While the shelter was overflowing and lacked available kennels, they recognized that Astro deserved another chance. With the help of Farfel's Rescue, this special pup is now looking for a loving forever home.

He thrives on consistent stimulation, exercise, and affection. Enrolling in a positive reinforcement training class will not only help Astro develop great behavior but will also enhance the bond between him and his new family. Astro is up to date on vaccinations, neutered, healthy, and heartworm negative. You can adopt him with peace of mind knowing that Farfel's Rescue offers a one-week trial to ensure a perfect match.
