Male Dog, Chihuahua
Chihuahua / Mixed (Short Coat)
Description:
Meet Blanco! This spunky, small (only 7.8 lbs!) and loving adult Chihuahua mix is looking for a new home after being surrendered by his family of over 5 years. Blanco is still learning that not all humans are scary, so he’ll need a patient family willing to give him time to settle into his new environment and routine. Once Blanco realizes he can trust you, his true playful personality shines! He loves going on walks and hikes, and gets the cutest short bursts of playful energy before snuggling up on the couch for belly rubs. He is truly the perfect balance of adventure-seeking and homebody. Blanco’s foster family is helping him overcome his separation anxiety, making progress with gradual alone time, treat distractions, and positive reinforcement. He finds comfort in the company of his foster brother (a 3-year-old resident dog) and often follows him from room to room when home alone. Blanco would thrive in an adult-only family (or one with older children) who is home most of the time. He would love another mature dog sibling to help continue to build his confidence and keep him company when home alone. His playful and affectionate personality has brought so much joy to his foster family. With a patient family who understands how confusing these changes can be for a dog, Blanco will continue to thrive and be the most loving companion! Grateful Dogs Rescue incurs substantial veterinary and other expenses in rescuing our dogs. In order to recoup some of these costs, we request a tax-deductible donation for each adoption. The suggested donation for Blanco is $300. If you are interested in adopting Blanco, please complete our online adoption application at https://www.gratefuldogsrescue.org/adoption-process/ . One of our volunteers will get back to you. Adoptions are local, confined to the SF Bay Area. See our other available dogs at https://www.gratefuldogsrescue.org/available-dogs/
