Oswald is long haired Chihuahua who is around 10 years old. This small pup is a cautious and sensitive dog who needs a patient and understanding adult-only home. He can be defensive when handled, especially by strangers, making him better suited for someone experienced with sensitive dogs. Oswald is wary of new people and doesn’t readily trust. While he isn`t playful right now, he does enjoy calm walks and handles well on a leash. He has shown no interest in other dogs and remains tolerant when passing them. Oswald may guard his food, so his future family should be aware of this behavior. Oswald will thrive with someone who gives him time to build trust and confidence!
