Prince - Yorkshire Terrier and Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in Fall River, Massachusetts

Meet Prince!

8lbs of scruffy perfection 💜

Prince is about eight years old - an older adult looking for that forever kinda love. He's a little guy, under 10lbs, and his previous owner said that he's a yorkshire terrier mix, most likely mixed with chihuahua or another small terrier.

Prince is a chill guy that isn't asking for much. He's just looking for a family that has the time to spend with him and the love to give. He can be very nonchalant and aloof so he has the independence to keep himself entertained and content and doesn't need you to be with him 24/7 but he is social when given the opportunity and will say hello to strangers with minimal fuss. He's a very easygoing dude...unless you touch his feet.

Typical small dog, the feet are off-limits...but sometimes they're not. It's like Russian Roulette with toes and rage.

Prince is good with other dogs and has been super tolerant of the pushier, more overbearing dogs. He's also been fine with cats - he just sniffs them and wags to say hello, so he may not recognize when a cat is annoyed by his presence. Kids 12+ because he may be small but, again, Russian Roulette with toes and rage, though he has been perfect for any other handling. He's great on a leash and will trot along without issue but will turn into a stubborn old man if you try to lead him in a direction that he does not want to go in.

He also occasionally has very loud opinions.
