About Squirrel
Squirrel is a sweet and sensitive Chihuahua mix, boasting a beautiful coat of red and brown. At 2 and a half years old and weighing 11 pounds, he embodies a gentle spirit, still navigating his way in the world after a challenging past. This little guy takes time to warm up, especially to men, so he needs a patient family who can provide a safe space for him to decompress and flourish. Once he feels secure, his playful puppy side starts to shine through, revealing his lively personality. Squirrel is already potty trained, which is a big plus! Given his sensitivity to excessive handling, he thrives best in a home where his adopters understand dog body language and can respect his need for space when necessary. With a nurturing environment, Squirrel has the potential to transform into a wonderful companion who’ll bring joy and love to your life. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
