Taco - Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in Plainfield, Illinois

Meet Taco!

Taco is a total cuddle bug — a 2-year-old Chihuahua Terrier mix weighing around 10 lbs. who just wants to shower you with attention and go everywhere with you. He loves car rides and is happy to tag along on any adventure. In the yard, Taco is just as content playing solo, exploring the weeds, and soaking up the sun stretched out on the grass, as he is playing with other dogs. He does well with kids 6 and older, and enjoys his toy collection. Taco will bark at strangers at first, but he's quick to warm up — one pet and he's already decided you're a friend. Sweet, affectionate, and easygoing, Taco would love a home with a fenced-in yard where he can explore safely. He's ready to find his person (or family) to be by his side for it all.
