Here's what the humans have to say about me:
This Chihuahua mix was found as a street stray. When no one claimed him Dusty Paws Rescue took him in as a foster. Moony is a sweet little guy, 13 lbs, estimated at 4 years old. When he's strutting around, his long tail curves up over his back.
Moony was interested in everything when he attended an adoption event, from the snacks on the lower shelves of the pet food store to the cats in their cages. The cats paid him no mind at all, indicating he doesn't give off anti-feline vibes. Moony is good with other dogs, most comfortable with smaller ones near his own size. He is friendly toward all people.
Moony may have been kept outside in his former life, as he needed to be house-trained in his foster home. The house training is coming along fine and he has learned to use the doggie door to let himself in and out. He can be left alone in the home.
Moony has been to the vet to have all his needs taken care of, including health check, neuter, vaccinations and micro-chip - he is all ready to prance into his forever home.
