My story

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

Calvin and Hobbs foster are happy to share this info about them:
Meet Calvin and Hobbs: the perfect pair of senior pups seeking their forever home! With Calvin, the spirited 10-year-old Jack Russell Terrier mix, and Hobbs, the toothless but cute, 12-year-old Chihuahua, each bursting with love and energy. Crate trained, quirky, cuddly, and leash-savvy, they're ready for walks in the park or cozy evenings at home (preferably under the blanket with you!) They are mostly potty trained when an established potty schedule is set in place, accidents seem to happen only when they stray from routine. They are very food motivated, so further training seems doable! Both would be best suited in an adult-only home with a yard to run around in. Calvin and Hobbs thrive when each member of the household shares in their care. While they can be possessive over "their person," equal time and effort from everyone ensures they reciprocate the love tenfold. Ready to add endless joy and companionship to your life, Calvin and Hobbs are eagerly awaiting the chance to become cherished members of your family. Quick facts The good: crate trained
okay to be left home alone
housebroken- if potty schedule is in ~4-5 hr increments spirited and playful, but will also sleep with you all day walks well on leash
loves cuddles and food
loyal and loving
The not so good: dog reactive on leash (mostly Calvin)
possessive over "their person, and will react if someone crosses into their person's space (mostly Hobbs)
