About Peanut

Peanut is a shy, neutered male Chihuahua looking for his forever home. He came to the shelter along with several other dogs after their owner could no longer care for them. At around one year old, Peanut enjoys the company of other small dogs, but we don't know how he interacts with children or cats yet. Currently, Peanut is not house trained or leash trained, which means he might need a patient adopter to help him learn these skills. His curly coat adds a touch of charm, and with some time and love, he's sure to flourish in a new environment. If you're interested in providing Peanut with a loving home, please reach out to the shelter to arrange a visit. Adoption is a journey, and Peanut is ready to start his with you!
