Chihuahua and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption
QUINT
Chihuahua, Mixed Breed
🇺🇸
Rochester, Minnesota
March 2nd
male, small, adult
DESCRIPTION
We call him Quint. If you've seen Jaws and are aware of the Quint's fate in the film, you might have some idea what happened to our little boy here. Quint was found in Tijuana Mexico nearly bitten in half. Bitten: We were told it was a dog attack, but it looked a lot like a machete wound. Either way, it was awful.
Quint has healed beautifully. Sure, there are scars under his little coat - fairly good ones. But those just tell the story of what Quint has overcome. And overcome he has! Quint is healthy, friendly, clever, active, loving, cuddly and quickly learning all the things he should. He even braves the cold without complaint to do his business!
So, if you're looking for a wonderful pal about 12 pounds and 3.5 years old.... we know him, and you should meet him. Quint is great with dogs his size; big dogs scare him which is understandable. He is a clinger and major lap dog. He loves his people and is very social. He loves racing around the back yard. He is potty trained on a schedule.
Quint was adopted a year ago and is getting returned due to barking in the apartment and needing work on pottying outside consistently. He does best on a schedule. He lived with a toddler and was amazing with it. We now are looking for a home, **no apartments** or shared walls for Quint. He isn't a fan of being left alone and will bark.

ABOUT: CHIHUAHUA DOG BREED
The Chihuahua is a small breed famous for its confidence, loyalty, and big personality, despite its tiny size. Originating from Mexico, these dogs are known for their large, expressive eyes and alert, curious nature. Chihuahuas make excellent companions, forming strong bonds with their owners and displaying a protective nature. They come in a variety of coat colors and patterns, with both long and short coats, making them a diverse and adorable addition to any family.
The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
