Looking for lots of affection, sweet little kisses and the ultimate cuddler in an eight-pound package? Meet Little Man, an adorable tiny boy rescued from the streets of Rosarita, Mexico and now enjoying the good life in San Diego.
Little Man is fully vetted and vaccinated and recently had a dental where he lost seven teeth but now has minty fresh breath. He is a wonderful companion and also craves a companion so he needs to be in a home with another dog. Little Man loves to follow and snuggle with the alpha dachshund in his foster home, and they sometimes play tug with squeaky toys. He sleeps at night in his own bed in a pen, but he would much rather sleep with the human or the other dog.
Little Man walks well on his leash and is friendly to all the other dogs and humans he meets. He doesn’t bark much but will let you know when someone’s at the door.
He is learning the potty schedule and doing quite well for a former street dog.
Everyone who meets Little Man and sees his bouncy walk assumes that he is a puppy. He’s 10, according to the vet, but could be as young as eight. If you’re interested in giving Little Man the forever lap he deserves, put in your application at
