Here's what the humans have to say about me:
MEET BUDDY: Buddy is a true chihuahua, he is independent and his personality makes him feel bigger than he actually is. You can usually find Buddy wherever the action is. He enjoys being held, but on his terms. He likes to be near his people, loves to eat, has moments of being playful with other dogs and can tend to be vocal when he doesn't get his way. Being the independent gentleman his is, Buddy is not overly affectionate but appreciates a warm home, a soft couch and a family that has the time to take care of his special health needs. Buddy has a mild heart murmur, arthritis, and early kidney disease that is easily managed through diet, something we would like his adopter to continue. Buddy doesn't do well with larger dogs and would prefer spending his retirement in a home with smaller dogs only. He is 16 years old and 8 lbs.
Due to his age & health, Buddy is considered an “Adoptable Hospice dogs” and IS AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION. He is maintaining his current health status as of October 2019. We are looking for a special someone for this small super senior. If you love to pamper, nurture and have the time to support his health through a holistic approach (with our guidance), this little gentleman may be meant for you!
