Story
Cheech - The Escape Artist Chihuahua About Cheech: 2-year-old male Chihuahua Neutered and microchipped Up-to-date on all vaccinations Outgoing and friendly with people, especially enjoys the company of children Prefers the company of smaller dogs, especially female pups High-energy and very clever - can climb chain link fences to escape, so will need a secure, high wooden fence Personality and Behavior: Cheech is a lively and affectionate Chihuahua with a big personality packed into a small body. He loves people and most dogs, though he tends to prefer the company of smaller pups, especially females. His clever and adventurous nature has earned him the nickname "Houdini" - he has an uncanny ability to climb to the top of chain link fences and then jump down to freedom. For this reason, he will need a securely fenced yard with a tall wooden fence that he cannot climb. Cheech is house-trained and comfortable using a doggie door. He does well when crated, but will need close supervision to prevent any daring escapes when doors are opened. Tragically, Cheech's adventurous spirit once led him to kill a chicken after getting out, so he is not recommended for a farm or rural environment. However, Cheech seems to do well with children and could make a delightful companion in the right home, as long as his escape artist tendencies are carefully managed. Ideal Home: Cheech would thrive in an active home with a securely fenced yard and plenty of enrichment to channel his high energy. He would do best in a home without other large dogs, and one with responsible owners who can provide close supervision to prevent any unplanned adventures. An experienced Chihuahua owner or a home with dog-savvy children would be ideal for this clever and affectionate pup. ##2195191##
