Scar - Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in Sacramento, California

Scar is a 7 year old who weighs 16 pounds.

He is a gentle, tender soul who can startle easily and may need a little time to warm up. But once he feels comfortable, his sweet personality shines through. He has such a warm, loving heart and simply wants affection and all the gentle, happy things life has to offer. He's calm, has the happiest little wagging tail, and absolutely loves leaning his head against you for extra scratches. He's a sweet, gentle boy who just wants to feel safe, loved, and appreciated.
