My story

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

This old man, needs a home, full of love and not alone, with a Knick Knack, paddy whack, give this dog a bone, this old man is ready to come rolling right into your home! That's right, it's a modern Muttville remix of your favorite nursery rhyme! Not to worry though, we haven't switched it up too much - Knick Knack himself is a Muttville classic - an incredibly handsome chihuahua and sweet senior bean looking for a loving lap and gentle hands to give him pets and care for the rest of his days. With a wag-wag of his tail and a heart of gold, adopt this senior, make him yours to hold!

Here's some notes from his foster:

Meet Knick Knack!

This sweet, laid-back senior chihuahua is on the hunt for a forever home where he can shower his new family with love and snuggles. With a heart full of affection and a passion for life's simple pleasures, Knick Knack is the perfect choice for anyone in search of a gentle, low-
maintenance companion.

Why You'll Love Him:

Cuddle King: Knick Knack adores napping by your side, in your lap or on your bed.

Low-Key Lifestyle: He enjoys leisurely grass walks, basking in the sun, and plenty of naps.

Dog & Kid Friendly: Knick Knack is wonderful with children and other dogs-he's truly a
social sweetheart!

Well-Behaved: Potty-trained, although he does appreciate many outdoor breaks.

Brave & Adaptable: Despite being partially blind, Knick Knack navigates his world like a
champ. He does need a ride going up and down stairs.

Knick Knack is the sweetest little guy with a laid-back, gentle personality that makes him so easy to love. He absolutely loves being in laps and spending time with humans, making him perfect for anyone looking for a calm, easygoing companion. If my partner and I didn't already have a dog and a baby on the way, we would swoop him up!

At night, he'll cozy up next to you in bed, resting his head on you like a true cuddle bug, so his future owner should be ready for lots of snuggles! His favorite things in life are simple - he loves walking through the grass, lounging in the sun, and sneaking in as many naps as he can.
