Story
Adoption Area: East Tennessee Riblet needs: -Professional belly rubber -Patient owner who will give me time to warm up to you -Children over 12 -Calm and quiet home -If there is a cat in the home, needs to be a dog-savvy cat as he may chase Hi, I'm Riblet!! I am an adorable 3 yr old, 11 lb male Chihuahua mix and I somehow became homeless. Luckily, Small Breed Rescue was able to bring me in and I'm hanging out in a foster home waiting for my forever place. My foster mom tells me I'm pretty perfect but new owners will need to be patient and give me time to get comfortable. I think 3-6 hours should be enough! Within a week you will see my full, happy, goofy self! I love to play fetch by myself or with you and snuggle on the sofa during down time. Foster mom is teaching me all sorts of things about being a good boy. Things like not marking my spot in the house and sleeping in a crate. We also are working on more fun things like tricks. I'm a smart guy so I'd love someone to teach me more! Oh, did I tell you I love going on car rides?! I do! Foster mom takes me to the hardware store and we even have gone to the mountains. I hang out in my crate and keep quiet when she drives too fast! I also just learned that I think hiking is pretty cool! Foster Mom says she is super impressed with me! If there are other dogs in the home, I am probably not going to play or be their best friend. I am rather indifferent to dogs as I am more focused on my person. Now for those not so perfect things about me.... I can be a little wary of strangers and sudden movements so my new parents will have to work on my confidence. Because of this it would be best if there were no small children in the home. I LOVE to chase cats!!! This might be okay if you have a dog-savvy cat who will bop me on the nose but it's definitely not okay if your cat doesn't like pup-arazzi up in his space! I can embrace my Chihuahua side and bark along with the rest of them if something needs to be barked about! I might not be a good fit if you live in an apartment. The vet says I have a slippy hock on my rear leg. Sometimes you will see me hold my leg up when I walk. There is not a fix for this but it really doesn't bother me — just the way I was born. I’m neutered, microchipped, also up to date on my vaccines, flea and heartworm preventions. My adoption fee is $175. Don’t forget I’m looking for a professional belly rubber. If you think this could be you please contact my friends at SBRET.com and I could become your new best friend.
