My personality

My story

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

Kivo is a little 10 pound 5-year-old chihuahua mix boy that was a stray and never claimed. He's now looking for a family and home of his very own.

He is a curious little boy and can be tentative at times but once he warms up to you he will stick to you like Velcro. He also graduated with honors from lap warming school, which may come in handy this winter.

If you would like to provide Kivo a loving home, here is a link to our application that you can print out, complete and email (ocadoptions@aol.com) or text (585-752-2588) back to us as a jpg. http://www.friendsoftheocas.org/uploads/3/4/7/0/34700641/interest_application.pdf

Give us a call or send us a text if you have any questions.
