DESCRIPTION
Calling tiny chihuahua lovers!
Marshal1/Enzo was adopted 4 years ago and was an only doggo and completely doted upon! He is back with SAAP after losing his home due to his human mommy passing. He’s been settling in at his foster home.
He has been neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and had recent dental.
He is anxious and has separation issues. He isn't destructive, but has been to known to howl and bark for long periods of time until favorite human/s returned.
We are working on potty and leash retraining. We are struggling a bit as he has been allowed to potty on pads most of his life, but he doesn't always stick to them.
Marshal/Enzo is a 6lb tall and lanky 6 year old and wherever you go, he wants to be there also. He sleeps at your shoulder at night but doesn't want to be completely under blankets and doesn't care for clothing.
He does well with children, meaning no biting, however because of his size it is not recommended that he be placed with children under 10 years old. And because he has been an only dog most of his life, he is looking for a home to be an only dog or with a dog who is pretty laid-back and isn't an alpha.
