About Keller

Meet Keller, a delightful and playful three-year-old Chihuahua who weighs nine pounds. This energetic little guy spreads joy every morning with his sweet kisses and a wagging tail that seems to shake his entire body when he's excited to see you. Keller loves to curl up as a cozy little spoon during naps. With his friendly nature, Keller gets along wonderfully with children and eagerly welcomes new faces. He’s made friends with everyone he’s met, including dogs, and is quick to engage in playful antics after a friendly sniff. He’s house trained, sleeps through the night, and is getting better at his leash skills—though he has a knack for wrapping it around anything in his path. Keller already knows commands like ‘come.’ He has a zest for life, enjoying fetch, squeaky toys, and long walks in the bustling streets of New York. Yet, he also knows how to relax on the couch, appreciating the comfort of a soft bone or some loving pets. Keller adapts quickly to new environments, even winning over the crowd at his foster's dog-friendly gym. Keller would thrive in an active home with a family or couple. He could happily live as an only dog or with a furry sibling, and he’s well-suited for apartment living. Ready to bring this little bundle of joy into your home?
