Meet Mayo, a black and white Chihuahua mix with a soft, easy charm and just the right amount of mellow sweetness to match his name. He has a gentle, observant nature and tends to take in the world quietly before settling in close to his person.

Mayo enjoys cozy spots, calm companionship, and the comfort of being near someone he trusts. He's the kind of little dog who becomes a steady, sweet presence once he feels at home.

Mayo came to us from Front Street Animal Shelter in Sacramento after he was picked up as a stray.
