About Romero
Meet Romero (aka Mero, Romerito)! This charming 6-year-old Chihuahua mix weighs in at about 11 pounds. Rescued in the Southwest after his owner passed away, he has a warm, affectionate nature alongside a hint of independence. Romero is playful and curious, with a low-to-moderate energy level that's just right for his compact size. His sweet disposition shines through when he greets you with kisses in the morning, ready for breakfast and a sunny spot for a nap. He enjoys leisurely walks for about 30 minutes, lounging on the couch, and occasionally indulging in treats. Despite being a little timid at first, Romero gets along wonderfully with kids, adults, other dogs, and even cats—showing off cat-like habits like paw cleaning and sitting in a loaf position. Potty trained and good on a leash, he's responsive to his name and can be left alone without issues. Romero would thrive as an only dog or with a companion and fits perfectly into an apartment setting. His ideal home would be moderate to calm, with someone who appreciates both affection and independence. His floppy ears, wagging tail, and endearing little quirks make him an all-around delightful companion. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let’s get started.
