About Tom

Meet Tom! This adorable white Chihuahua mix puppy deserves a happy, loving home. Abandoned on the streets of Puerto Rico as a newborn, he has overcome a rough start and is now thriving. Tom is finishing his veterinary protocol and preparing to fly to the States, where he will find a forever family who will cherish him. As a friendly little guy, Tom loves being around people and is great with other dogs and children. While we can't say for sure what size he will grow to since his dad's identity is unknown, his mama is a tiny 10 to 15 pounds. With his sweet nature, he’s all set to bring joy to any home. This is just the beginning of his journey, and we hope it will be filled with love, soft beds, and full bellies. Stay tuned for updates on Tom as he approaches his new future!
