Optimus Prime - Chihuahua and Terrier Dog Available for Adoption in Portland, Oregon

Opie (Optimus Prime) is soft, sensitive, and just the sweetest little puppy. He's about 9 weeks old and 5 lbs. He was born on transport on his way to our rescue, and has been in foster care growing up with care and positivity. He's always been independent, even at just a week old he preferred to rest separately from his siblings which was kinda odd, but it explains his little independent and quiet personality as he's gotten older.
He can be a little shy and uncertain of new experiences, but like all puppies with positivity and not overwhelming them he warms up to new friends and things quickly. This age is when everything different and new can be a little shocking, but when in a supportive nurturing home they grow confident! Opie's gentle spirit is endearing and when he wants to lay in your lap he does so with a tenderness that's makes you feel like he is speaking to your soul.

He's a quick study, and he absolutely loves to chase and play with toys. We just know chasing a flirt pole will be his very favorite thing. He enjoys sleeping in a crate, and has been learning the foundations of potty training well! Opie will absolutely steal your heart.
