My story

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

Meet me at the mobile adoption event on Saturday, November 16th at Woodlands Pet Food & Treats San Rafael from 12-3pm (unless adopted before 3pm). An onsite sign-in sheet will open one hour before the event.

Fezzik is a tiny Pomeranian or long haired Chihuahua mix who was found as a stray in the Central Valley. He is as soft as a cotton ball and will definitely grow into a gorgeous fluffy floofer. He's tiny - maybe 4-5lbs, and a bit shy around new people I think he hasn't had much exposure to kind hands but he still is drawn to people and opens up within a few hours He's done very well with an older, 15lb bossy chihuahua - he understands when he wants to play and when he needs to back off, and is always rolling on his back to try to get his new friend to play. I think he would love an older sibling around his size.

Fezzik is a typical playful, happy puppy. He loves soft chew toys and has discovered a tiny soccer ball that is his prized possession. He's medium energy when he's not sound asleep. He's doing great with crate training and potty training - he stays in an xpen overnight and when unsupervised and uses potty pads in the xpen as a last resort, but is starting to hold it longer and longer until he is taken outside. He's not very vocal but will occasionally join in an alarm bark with his foster siblings. He's a world class snuggler.

Because he is so tiny I don't think a home with young children would work unless they are VERY gentle. I also think a very chaotic home might be too much for this little guy.
