Terrier and Chihuahua Dogs Available for Adoption

Alfie
Male, neutered
Breed: Terrier/Chihuahua mix
DOB: 7/4/25
Weight: 6.5 lbs.

This poor little guy has been bounced around it seems in his short little life and with this it looks like zero training was given. He has learned on his own how to act. Alfie is only 6.5lbs but has a big personality! He is making strides in his foster home but training needs to start fresh and he needs to learn everything new. He seems willing to pay attention when you have a yummy treat. Alfie's been in his foster home a short time and he already learned how to puppy play. He didn't know how to interact otherwise. His foster mom is working with him on house training and he has been doing well in a crate. Alfie is not a fan of bigger dogs and is learning to play with smaller dogs. He is barky at the resident cat but he hasn't chased after him. He hasn't had interaction yet in his foster home so probably older, calm kids would be best. Continued training on manners and commands needs to be carried through in order for Alfie to become his best self.
