Chihuahua and Yorkshire Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Warwick, Rhode Island

Meet Garlic Knot

At just 9 months old, Garlic Knot is still figuring out the world - and he likes to take things at his own pace. New people and unfamiliar places can make him nervous at first, but once he feels safe, his sweet and affectionate personality shines through. Because he's slow to trust, he may need multiple meet-and-greets before he feels fully comfortable with new people.

This little guy has an adventurous spirit hiding under his shy exterior. Garlic Knot has lived successfully with other dogs. He has no known history of living with cats or children. He would thrive in a calm home with people who understand that trust takes time - but once you've earned his, you'll have a loving best friend for life.
