Here's what the humans have to say about me:
"It's dangerous to go alone! Take this!" ? You'll never have to go anywhere alone again, because Link may just be your missing link or the piece of your heart you never knew you needed. He's certainly weasled his way into our hearts and into everyone's he meets!
This 7-year-old dude with the great ears came here after his family had to move unexpectedly and sadly could no longer have dogs (his older but way tinier sister Meadow is in foster care). Link was said to be a typical scaredy chihuahua who shook like a leaf when he was nervous and was scared of other dogs he didn't know. We're so happy to report he's doing great here as an office greeter, interacting with another small senior dog and a playful puppy without issue. He grew up with kids and cats and mostly ignores the cats he's seen here. He does get a little scared at loud noises or unexpected quick movements, but overall he's a charmer, seems relaxed most of the time and is such a good boy. He's great on the leash and enjoys snapping at bugs in the grass. He's good about letting you know when he needs to go out, too. Once he knows you're a friend, he sweetly asks for attention and loves head, ear and butt scratches. And boy, does that butt get a wigglin' and that tail a movin' when he's happy! Link will be neutered soon and is up to date on vaccines.
