My personality

My story

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

Hi there, my name is Linus and I’m a handsome little black Chihuahua mix about 2 years old, only 12 lbs and I’m a loverboy. I’m shy when I meet people but warm up quickly and I’m always grateful for pets and snuggles even when I’ve just met you. I’m great with other dogs and enjoy being the leader, and I know how to get treats out of a wobbly puzzle toy. I enjoy being active, going for walks to the park, going for rides in the car, or just playing in the yard with my doggy friends. I am housebroken and well-behaved, sweet and affectionate, and I don't mind sharing kisses. I was lost and alone in San Marcos Texas when the animal shelter brought me in. It's a very nice shelter that rarely euthanizes dogs but 4 Little Paws Rescue fell in love with me and brought me to a foster home, knowing I could find a wonderful life somewhere on the East Coast. Inquire about me today and make me yours!

* 4 Little Paws is based in CT. We adopt in many different states along the East Coast. Transport costs are included in the adoption fee. If you are located outside the states we typically adopt to, we have options to get the dog of your dreams to your location.

Additional adoption info

Please DO NOT apply unless the entire family / household is on board with adopting one of our dogs. We must receive an application for you to move forward in the process. Thoughtful direct emails are welcome and will be answered. However, an application is still a necessary step. We want to make sure we find our dogs a perfect fit with a family so both the dog and the family are happy. We keep our dogs with fosters once we get them out of shelters for a little bit to learn and understand their personalities. Our relationship with families doesn't stop at adoption! We are always available for any follow up questions and are happy to be a resource as you and your new pet settle into a routine.

More about this rescue

We are a small group devoted to saving dogs from the multitudes of high kill shelters in Texas, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina and California. We specialize in saving small to medium breed types and re-homing in the North East where there is less unwanted dog overflow and a high volume of qualified adopters.
