About Little Man

Little Man is a charming 12-year-old Chihuahua mix with a big personality. Weighing in at just 7 pounds, this little guy will capture your heart in no time. He's up to date on all his shots, neutered, microchipped, and heartworm negative. Although he's potty trained, he sometimes marks his territory, so his foster mom uses a diaper to keep things tidy. While he’s kennel trained, he’d prefer to snuggle up next to you in bed. Following a recent dental cleaning that included extractions, Little Man was diagnosed with kidney disease. His vet recommends a special kidney diet and regular check-ups every six months to monitor his condition. Little Man loves cuddling under blankets and lounging in the sun. He generally gets along with other dogs, provided they aren’t too hyper, and he has even been known to befriend birds. While it’s unclear how he interacts with cats, his easygoing temperament suggests he would adapt well. This delightful senior deserves a loving home where he can thrive in his golden years. If you think Little Man could be the perfect addition to your family, apply to adopt him today! His adoption fee is $145.00.
