Here's what the humans have to say about me:
***ADOPTION PENDING***
Introducing Beowolf! With such a big name for a little dog, he responds to Beo (BAY-oh).
Beo was an owner surrender who was loved by his dad (and grandma) for the past 8 years, but as their family grew, Beo couldn't stay (for NO fault of his own).
Beo came to CCDR right before the holidays and his first few days were busy with an initial vet checkup and then he had a dental cleaning two days later. We don't believe that Beo ever had his teeth professionally cleaned, so he had a lot of buildup on his teeth, and four of his bottom front incisors were pulled since they were already loose. Beo did very well during his two vet visits and he was friendly with every person and dog he met along the way.
Beo was described to us as being "affectionate, house and crate trained... great with other dogs, children and strangers" and he is living up to that description. He is quiet and polite and has a cute little whine that he uses to ask for something.
Beo was previously an only dog, but he’s been getting along very well with his three new foster siblings. We also introduced him to cats, and he showed very little interest in them. He is such a ‘live and let live’ little fella!
Since Beo was previously accustomed to high-rise apartment living, he is really enjoying being off-leash in his foster family's fenced yard. He likes exploring and prancing around and enjoys running with a tennis ball (he needs to work on the fetch and bring back part).
Beo likes lots of attention and wants to always be with his person and will follow you everywhere. He gets a little antsy, at first, in the car and alone in his crate, but he does settle in and enjoys the view or takes a nap.
We're told that Beo is a mix. We're not sure if some Dachshund or Terrier might be part of this little (14-pound) Chihuahua's DNA, but whatever the composure of his genetics, he sure is adorable and well-behaved! In fact, his foster family says that “Beo is the best-behaved foster dog that we’ve ever had!”
Beo will certainly be a devoted companion to an individual or small family. He’ll most likely do best in a home as an only dog, where he’ll receive endless attention, or with one other dog who will pal around and play with him. Beo is being fostered in York, PA and his current veterinarian is in Ellicott City, MD. Please apply if you live local enough for Beo to join us when we conduct your home visit.
