Story
Sherlock is an 11-month-old Chihuahua mix weighing just 7.3 pounds, currently waiting for his forever home at Butte Humane Society. With his adorable brown and tan coat and bright, happy personality, this little guy is sure to steal your heart! Sherlock is very friendly and outgoing, always eager to meet new people and be part of whatever is going on. He has a sweet, lovable nature and truly enjoys being close to his humans, especially if that means being picked up and cuddled. Being held is one of his favorite things, and he’s happiest when he’s in your arms. He’s also very food motivated and eager to please, already showing off his skills with a solid “sit.” With his love for treats and positive attitude, he has great potential to learn even more. If you’re looking for a small, affectionate companion who will happily tag along for fun and snuggle up afterward, Sherlock might be your perfect match!

Story
Meet Pippino! Pippino is a young male Pomeranian mix with a moderate energy level and a sensitive heart.

This pet is in a foster home. Please call to schedule an appointment. Meet Robert! Robert is a sweet Pomeranian/Chihuahua mix with a fluffy coat and a charming personality. He loves cuddles, short walks, and being a lap dog.
