Jack - Miniature Pinscher and Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in Fairfield, Connecticut

Hello everyone! My name is Jack, and I'm a handsome little 1-year-old, 11.4-pound Miniature Pinscher/Longhaired Chihuahua mix with the most adorable fluffy ears. I was a stray pup in Port Lavaca, Texas, which is really bad news since the only local animal shelter euthanizes everyone. Bless my lucky stars when 4 Little Paws Rescue stepped in just in the nick of time to save all of us! 28 dogs and puppies' lives were spared and sent to foster homes in and around San Antonio, so we could get ready for adoption instead. What a relief! I am now vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, healthy, and happy, and ready to live an amazing life as someone's forever dog!

I am a sweet, easygoing boy who will be shy at first, but 10 minutes later, I'm over it. I am great with people, dogs, and kitty cats, and I enjoy playtime with my dog friends, including the big dogs! My activity level is low to medium, and my play sessions only last about 1/2 hour until I would rather find a place to hang out and chew on a toy or be snuggled in your arms instead. My foster mom says I am very gentle, and she has yet to hear me bark. When she carries me in her arms, she will give me gobs of kisses on my head, and my little tail is going about 100 miles per hour! I am just the sweetest little guy who is also well behaved, housebroken, good in a crate if needed, and I know how to use a doggy door. I'm good on a walk, and I LOVE car rides, especially to get a PupCup! Please note that I have a very narrow build and can easily squeeze through a narrow gap in a gate or fence, and I don't want to get lost! Inquire about me today.
