Tyler - Chihuahua and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Largo, Florida

This adorable 2-year-old chihuhua weighs just 13 pounds, but don’t let his size fool you! He has a big personality and plenty of love to give. Tyler is a people-loving pup who enjoys spending time with his favorite humans and being the center of attention.



Tyler appears to have been the king of his castle in his previous home and doesn’t appreciate being confined in a crate, kennel, or carrier. We suspect he may not have had much experience with them, so being placed in one can be stressful for him and he may use his teeth to communicate that. If his future family doesn’t plan to use a crate, Tyler should settle in just fine!



Tyler has been diagnosed with heartworm disease, but the good news is that he has already been treated for it!



If you’re looking for a loyal little companion with a big heart and an even bigger personality, Tyler may be the perfect match for you!

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.
