About Scruffington:
Hi, my name is Scruffington and I am a loving 2 year old chihuahua/terrier mix. I get very excited when I meet new people! I love to jump up and lick them so they pay attention to me, and I can get excited and bark at others on walks. I generally do well with dogs, but I can get jealous when other animals get more attention or food than me. This has caused me to have issues with the cat in my foster home, and I try to lunge at her but have never bitten.
I am in the process of learning to sit, but I know that I get treats when I do. :) My humans are my favorite entertainment and I am constantly wanting their attention to play, chase and give me pets. If you stop paying attention to me I will probably lick your legs, hands, or face. My current foster family has a big front window I love to watch squirrels from, and I am a good boy who doesn't usually bark while observing. Once I am eventually worn out, you'll find me curled up under the blankets.
My ideal home would be one without other animals so I can have the spotlight. I love to chase squirrels and play, so having a family who likes to be outside would be amazing! I care about my humans and don't like being put in my crate for long periods of time. Please let me cuddle with you all night! I can't wait to meet you!
Scruffington is fixed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations for his age.

Twin Cities Pet Rescue (TCPR) is a small, 501c3 nonprofit, companion animal rescue organization. TCPR does not have a facility and is 100% foster-based. TCPR rescues dogs, cats and small animals of all breeds; rescuing them from city impounds, puppy mills, and other situations of abuse and neglect. Once rescued, all animals receive veterinary care ranging from spay/neuter, vaccines, microchips, and basic testing to specialty eye surgeries, pet dermatology care, and various other specialty treatments. Once an animal is rescued by TCPR, it remains in a foster home until adopted, no matter how long that might take.
TCPR often rescues animals that are considered “less adoptable” by other rescue organizations, as they are often the ones overlooked and truly left behind; and in need of the most help. These animals might be overlooked due to their age, health status, special needs or breed. TCPR works to help as many animals in need find their furever families as we can, especially helping those animals that need help most.
