What’s your name?
Gizmo

How old are you?
10 years old

Where are you located?
Houston, TX

How much do you weigh?
10 pounds

What’s your adoption fee?
$250 or $500 including transport

What is your favorite thing to do?
Hang out and chill. I love to check in with my person from time to time for some love. Otherwise, I just hang out. Oh, I do like to go outside and bark at the neighbor's dog through the fence but I come inside when called.

What is your favorite food or treat?
Anything and everything!

Where do you like to sleep?
On a dog bed in the room with my person

What is your ideal home?
Since I'm a pretty chill guy, I'd like a quiet, chill home. My previous home had a lot of dogs, and I mean A LOT. I like being in a home with fewer dogs where I get more one on one attention.

Do you have any health issues?
Nope, not that I know of. I do have a skin tag on the corner of my left eye but the vet said it doesn't have to be removed. It's not hurting me or causing any issues with my eye.

Do you have any personality quirks?
Not really. I just want to be loved. I will nudge my head under your hand when I want to be pet. I enjoy sitting in your lap (that's where I am right now while foster mom interviews me).

Do you get along with other dogs, cats, or kids?
I'm great with other dogs but don't really seek out their attention. I prefer humans over dogs. I haven't met any kids since coming to the rescue so not sure how I would do in a home with young ones. My foster mom can test me around kids if needed. I think I'd be okay with cats. We might be able to test that out too if needed.

Do you like car rides?
I had a long car ride to get to the rescue. Since then, I've gone on a few short car rides. I won't say that I love car rides but I don't hate them. I haven't gotten car sick.

How are your potty manners?
Pretty good if I do say so myself! If I'm let out regularly, I don't have accidents in the house.

Any additional info you’d like to share?
I'm ready for my forever family! I might be a "senior" but I have a lot of love to give.

The Chinese Crested dog is a unique and charming breed known for its distinctive appearance, with one variation being hairless and the other covered in a soft, silky coat known as the 'powderpuff.' This breed is affectionate, playful, and makes for a great companion due to its loyalty and adaptability to various living environments. Chinese Crested dogs require special care to protect their delicate skin, and their small size makes them a suitable choice for apartment living.
