Meet Sweet Simon!

Simon is a gentle, affectionate boy who came to SVPP from a local shelter feeling frightened and shut down. Now that he’s settling into home life, his true personality is beginning to shine. He’s learning to relax, play with toys, and enjoy cozy snuggles with his fosters.

Simon absolutely loves getting pets and has started seeking out attention on his own. He’s incredibly sweet and happiest when he’s close to his people. While he’s not overly demanding, he definitely has a “lap dog” personality—whether he’s curled up in your lap or resting right beside you, he just wants to be near.

When he’s not shadowing his humans, Simon enjoys leisurely walks where he can explore the neighborhood at his own pace. Don’t let his relaxed style fool you—he can comfortably go 1 to 1.5 miles! It took a few days for his playful side to emerge, but now he loves toys and balls. He especially enjoys being chased and is starting to get the hang of fetch.

Simon is also making great progress with potty training. With a consistent schedule, he’s picked things up quickly and continues to improve every day.

The Chihuahua is a small breed famous for its confidence, loyalty, and big personality, despite its tiny size. Originating from Mexico, these dogs are known for their large, expressive eyes and alert, curious nature. Chihuahuas make excellent companions, forming strong bonds with their owners and displaying a protective nature. They come in a variety of coat colors and patterns, with both long and short coats, making them a diverse and adorable addition to any family.
