Odell is an adorable little Chihuahua and Shih Tzu mix who needs a new home because of the health of his elderly guardians. He's about 7-years-old and weighs about 14-lbs. .

Odell is a very adaptable little guy and fits in about everywhere. Even though he was an 'only dog' in his previous home, he loves the companionship of other dogs in his foster home, along with the freedom to run and play in a securely fenced yard .

Odell is crate trained and well housetrained... he even scratches at the door to ask to go out to 'potty'. He loves his crate and will often go into it during the day to rest and he also sleeps in it

Odell is a very affectionate little boy... if there's a lap available he will take up residence on it! He walks well on a leash and loves going for long walks.

We are looking for a family for Odell where he will have companionship during the day, and will not be left at home alone while the family is at work. Either someone who works from home or a young and active retiree would be perfect for this little boy. Odell loves going for rides in a car, and gets very excited when the leash comes out. We're hoping that he'll be able to go on many adventures with his new family!

Odell is current on his Distemper/Parvo, Bordetella, and Rabies vaccines and is neutered and microchipped. He tested negative for Heartworms and is on Heartworm prevention.

Odell's adoption fee is $400.00. We accept checks or cash for adoption fees... sorry, we do not take cards.

Odell is a loving, active, and smart little boy who deserves only the best home and family! If you feel that Odell would be a good match for your family, you must first fill out an application here (please copy and paste): https://foreverhomek9rescue.org/adoption-application/ .

Forever Home Canine Rescue offers a three-week trial period with all of our adoptions, just to be sure that the pet is a good match for the adopting family. The fee is refunded if the adoption does not work out within the trial period. We want to be sure that each of our pets will have their perfect 'forever' home!

Although Forever Home Canine Rescue adopts out-of-state, we never ship or transport our pets. An approved adopter must come to North Carolina to meet their new canine companion and then take him/her back home with them.
