Will work for treats
They call me : Pretzel
Predicted Breed: Chihuahua mix
Sex: Neutered male.
Approximate Age: 6 year
Weight: 7 Lbs.
Rescued from: Los Cabos, Mexico
Likes: Pretzel loves to be close to his humans, he loves head rubs and sleeping next to me as much as possible. He snuggles up in his dog bed and sleeps most of the day away and seems perfectly content. He's very food motivated (he'll try and climb up on you when eating next to him but his behavior is easy to correct with a few tries) and loves meeting new people. He also does really well in the car and really enjoys going for walks and being outside.
Dislikes: Pretzel does not like his crate and it's a challenge to get him to go in and stay in without him barking and whimpering to get out. He seems to respond well to soothing music to help him relax but would rather be free to roam the home. Pretzel does not like other dogs and would not be suitable for a home with another dog.
Ideal Home: Pretzel would do best as the only dog in the home. He is easy going and really just wants to be loved by all humans.
Attached home, Detached home, Senior home, Quiet home, Active home, Left alone during work 8+ hrs
Energy Level: Low
Experience with Kids: unknown
Experience with cats: Unknown.
Medical Needs: Pretzel is on puppy food to help him gain weight. He has grade 4 luxating Patellas in both back legs
Training Needs: He would benefit from basic training. Pretzel may not know English as he does not respond to basic commands (I have tried Spanish terms but that does not seem to work well either) but responds immediately when I snap my fingers. He's super docile and easy to care for and for the most part uses the pee pads (although gets really excited when I come home and pees on the front tile often). He is still getting used to the feel of grass on his feet. Also, Pretzel is curious about toys but so far has not shown any real interest or understanding of how to play with toys. Lastly, because he eats quite quickly I have found that using a slow feeder bowl works quite well to slow him down.
Pee pad trained, Needs basic training, Barks indoors, Barks outdoors, Walks on leash, Excitement Reactivity
From Pretzel's Foster:
Pretzel is the sweetest, most loving and gentle boy who just wants to be snuggled up next to his human(s). He loves a good head and belly rub and simply melts with physical touch. He loves to meet new people, is very food motivated, does great in car rides and walks and really seems to enjoy exploring new spaces outside. He would be such a great addition to any home that wants a gentle love bug to spoil.

They call me : Nugent
Predicted Breed: Chihuahua mix.
Sex: Neutered male
Approximate Age: 5 year
Weight: 19 Lbs.
Rescued from: California, USA
Likes: Nugent likes treats, soft places to sleep, and loves exploring outside.
Dislikes: He's not a fan of his kennel
Ideal Home: Nudent is slow to warm up to new people and will require a patient home that understands he needs slow introductions. Since he will air nip if he is scared, we would recommend a home without children or older children that allow him to come to them. He is great with other dogs. Will play a little but isn't up for non-stop play. He has met a cat and ignored it.
Detached home, senior home, quiet home, active home, left alone during work 8+ hours
Energy Level: medium
Experience with Kids: recommended only children over 12 yrs old
Experience with cats: yes
Medical Needs: none
Training Needs: He would benefit from basic training. It will be important during his training that he is in a well fenced yard or on a leash as he is very curious on what is on the other side.
House trained, barks indoors, barks outdoors, walks on leash
From Nugent's Foster:
Nugent is a wonderful dog. Smart, learns quickly and wants to please. He is house trained, not destructive and can be left alone. He loves exploring, prances when he walks and howls a little too when he hears a siren outside. A little sassy, loves cuddles and belly rubs, he's fun to have around!

Experience with Kids: Yes
Experience with cats: Yes

Training Notes: She is pee pad trained and goes out on a leash. Yolanda would benefit from basic training.
Pee pad trained, Needs basic training, Shy, Fearful, Walks on leash
From Yolanda's Foster:
She is a LOVE BUG!!! All she wants to do is sit with you and love you. She is so cute too. Because she is shy it is so rewarding when you see her come out of her shell. She wags he little tail and smiles every morning. She always is offering her belly for pets once she is comfortable. She is SO SO easy!!! I have never had a foster dog this easy!! No barking, no chewing, no marking, my kids joke that she is basically a stuffed animal!!! She must have been a mother in a past life because whenever there is a kid near her that she feels safe with she is always trying to lick them clean. Also she is sure to do her walk around after they are done eating to make sure she has cleaned up after them under the table. She would be an amazing family pet for anyone who can take the time to make her feel safe and loved.
