Story
Meet Archie!
Age: senior
Weight: 10 pounds
Breed: Frenchihuahua (Frenchie/ Chihuahua)
Good with: kids (I live with two small humans and get along just fine with them), dogs, and cats (cat tested and did fine)
House trained: yes, but sometimes I mark, so I wear a belly band so I don't have any accidents, and I really don't mind it one bit. It's easy peasy!
Crate trained: yes, though I am a perfect gentleman in the home and have earned privileges so that I can be left out at night or when the humans leave the house. Crates are fine but not necessary!
Archie here! I’m a peppy little frenchie-chi mix. Look at these ears! Yes, I AM really cute. I’m not sure why no one has snatched me up yet. Foster mom says I’m a CATCH.
I’m generally pretty quiet and don’t bark much. I’m a snuggler and I can’t wait until the humans wind down for the night so I can sit with them. I also like to be held. I get along with the other dogs in my foster home, but I can get a little sassy with bigger dogs - it's a Napoleon complex, what can I say? I’m fine with little dogs. I don’t live with any cats, but I was cat tested by Albert’s and I didn’t care about the kitty.
I don’t have any known health issues.
I’ve been waiting for my forever home for so long, could it be you?
*Archie is being fostered in Madison, WI.
