My story

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

Meet Deno, our delightful senior Chihuahua, who is nothing short of a little bundle of joy! With his sweet disposition, he fits right in with both cats and dogs, and his love for people is boundless. Deno thrives on companionship and adores being by your side, whether it’s snuggling up for a cozy nap or following you around the house, always eager to join your adventures.

This little fellow (6 lbs.) has a big heart, and although he has a heart murmur, it doesn’t require any medication at this time. With a bit of medication, he’s living his best life and takes his seizure meds like a complete champ—just pop them in a pill pocket, and he’ll think he’s getting a tasty treat!

Deno is not just a loyal companion; he’s also a quiet and gentle soul, who rarely barks. He enjoys his food but would thrive on a controlled feeding routine to keep him healthy and happy.

His age, size and health wouldn’t mix well with young kids. His ideal home would be with a single person or couple. If you’re looking for a loving buddy to share your life with, Deno is your perfect match! He’s ready to fill your days with warmth and affection—don’t miss the chance to make him part of your family!

Deno has been neutered, is current on vaccines, has tested negative for heartworm and is microchipped.
