Benito - Chihuahua and Miniature Pinscher Dog for Adoption in Warren, Rhode Island

Are you looking for your best friend in dog-form? Look no further than Benito!

This 6-year-old, 9 lbs Chihuahua and Min Pin mix that LOVES to be close to his human and to give lots of kisses. He hasn't met a human that he didn't love and is the perfect dog for office life or as a loyal constant companion for his lucky humans. He is playful and happy in his foster home and is ready to find a loving forever home. He is kid, dog, and cat friendly, although his one true love is humans!

Benito is sweet and friendly with both dogs and humans. Even though he only weighs 9lbs, Benito interacts well with other dogs. He doesn't require long walks but he does enjoy a walk with his dog friends. He has also discovered that he loves to be carried in a backpack like an adorable Passenger Prince. He loves car rides. He's the perfect buddy take to run errands or all day adventures. However, fair warning, Benito gets A LOT of attention in public. His smiling little face pulls in anyone who looks in his direction and the full body wiggle demands to be pet. He's seriously the friendliest dog that could exist.

Benito prefers to be with his humans and is the classic velcro-dog who just longs to be surrounded by human love at all times. For this reason, Benito will want to share his forever human(s) bed at night and prefers adopters who are home more often than not. He would be perfectly happy as an only dog or as part of a doggie pack.

Benito loves treats, fluffy beds, and couch snuggle time, and is an enthusiastic eater! Benito is potty trained but does use Belly Bands in the house since he marks a little. This may subside if he's in a home without other male dogs.

If this playful, Velcro little man sounds like your ideal companion, apply to adopt him today!

Benito is being fostered in Pflugerville, TX and is adoptable throughout Texas and Northeastern states.
