About Timmy

Meet Timmy, a wonderful 1-year-old Chihuahua currently in a foster home. Weighing just 6 pounds, this little guy was rescued from a high-kill shelter in South Texas and is eager to find his forever family. Timmy may be a bit shy at first but warms up quickly to caring individuals. He enjoys playing with toys and gets along great with both cats and dogs in his foster environment. He's still learning about household manners, so his new family should be ready to guide him with patience as he continues crate training and works on housebreaking. Timmy needs a loving and supportive home that recognizes the commitment of providing a loving environment for his lifetime, which can be 15 years or more. This includes supervision, appropriate chew toys, leash training, grooming, and positive socialization. Those interested in adopting Timmy must be prepared for the playful, mischievous nature of a puppy. Please note, Timmy is already neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and ready to find his perfect match. Interested adopters are encouraged to apply as small breed dogs like Timmy tend to get adopted quickly. If you're ready to give him a loving home, consider reaching out today!
