About Sully

Sully believes evenings are for two things: zoomies and concerts. First, he tears around the house with a goofy expression on his face. When his favorite song comes on, he tips his head back and howls along as if he's the star of the show. After his performance, he flops into bed and sleeps soundly. At three years old and weighing 17 pounds, Sully is a vibrant Chihuahua ready for adoption. He loves his flirt pole, but hikes, parks, and car rides are also great adventures for him. After some fun outside, he’s just as content curling up next to you on the couch. Sully gets along with other dogs but doesn’t necessarily need a canine companion at home. He’s great in a working household, happily settling in while his humans are away and saving his energy for playtime. Sully is reliably house trained and takes care of his toys like they’re treasures, not chew toys. Because he has a lot to say, Sully would thrive in a house rather than an apartment, and he prefers a home without young children. If you’re looking for a dog who can join you on hikes, make you laugh, and then snuggle up for some downtime, Sully might be the one for you. Sully is available for transport to the Greater Philadelphia area, covering Eastern Pennsylvania, Southern New Jersey, and Delaware. Pickup details will be arranged upon adoption.
