My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Pooh Bear is a special senior Chihuahua looking for a forever home after being rescued from the Dallas shelter's euthanasia list nearly a year ago. Surrendered by his owner at around eight years old due to health issues, Pooh Bear had a rough start but is ready for a fresh chapter. Partially blind, he can see shadows but occasionally bumps into things, though he manages well with a routine. Pooh Bear's demeanor is unique and requires patience—he took about two months to warm up enough for scratches but can be particular about when he's had enough attention. Despite a challenging start in foster care, he's come a long way and now navigates stairs and his favorite spots with ease. Pooh Bear communicates his needs by sticking his head through the banister or getting into a crate for transport outside, then returns promptly to his favorite spot in bed. At night, he enjoys lying next to you under the blankets but prefers no touching. This stinker of a Chihuahua is now around nine years old, 10 pounds, and seeking a patient and understanding home. If Pooh Bear sounds like the companion you've been looking for, submit your application today to meet him and witness his unique personality firsthand. He's ready to leave his past behind and flourish in a loving home. No children in household please.
