If you happen to overlook him, he'll let out an adorable squeaky cry to remind you that he's waiting for cuddles. This charming little guy embodies the endearing traits of senior Chihuahuas. August is quiet and affectionate, happiest when snuggling up next to you or tucked beneath a cozy blanket. His bark is more of a sweet squeak, adding to his irresistible charm.

He'd fit seamlessly into a home with respectful children, making him an excellent companion for families. While he prefers to avoid stairs due to his age, being only 6 pounds means he's easy to scoop up.
