Hi! It’s me Houston again. I’m feeling a little sad today, I can’t understand why I am still waiting?! I think I’m pretty adorable if I do say so myself. Isn’t there anyone out there that wants me?
I am a special boy you see, I got my name when I was rescued from Houston, Texas during Hurricane Harvey by Yorkie911 Rescue, Inc almost 2 years ago. I was so adorable that I was adopted quickly. Sadly, over the last couple years in what I thought was my forever home, I began behaving badly and my family didn’t want me anymore.
I am 2 years old and think I am a Chihuahua Lab Mix. I weigh about 25 pounds, am completely housebroken, crate trained, and know all my basic commands. I love belly rubs and really enjoy a good massage. I do have some fears, because it seems I never really learned to really trust you humans, but I am slowly learning and getting a little better at just being a dog.
I love walks, but am a bit reactive to people and their dogs I may see along the way. I also try to chase all the squirrels and bunnies in the neighborhood, but whoever walks me knows how to redirect me in these situations.
I also love the Edible Nylabone Sweet Potato bones; they are my favorite afternoon snack, and I love all the homemade meals and treats they make here at Paws Give Me Purpose. They make me feel really special here, and tell me how wonderful I am every day.
I just need some guidance, and I really do not require Sanctuary. Don’t get me wrong, I do like it here at Paws Give Me Purpose, but I really would love to have my very own forever family. I have been told that I will make a wonderful companion in the right home, and I agree, so I am searching for a best friend, for the real love of my life.
I prefer a calm environment and just want to be around my people and have them devote their time to me. I could possibly live with one other doggie sibling my own size at the most; big dogs frighten me and too many dogs overwhelm me.
For those of you who have been following my story, you know that I have been through so much trauma and change in my young life that I really just want a home with a mommy and daddy that will understand me, love me and cherish me forever. I am really very sweet and affectionate once I get to know you, and love climbing into a lap and getting spoiled.
If you want to be my mommy or daddy, I promise to love you forever! I’m a really good boy, won’t someone please give me a chance; I guarantee you will fall in love when you meet me!
Since Paws Give Me Purpose is a Sanctuary, and normally do not handle adoptions, applications to adopt me will be processed by Yorkie911 Rescue.
