Meet Turtle! He is the sweetest, snuggliest young chihuahua mix you’ll ever meet. He’s playful, dog friendly, 95% potty trained, and sweet as can be.

Sheeba is a perfect pocket pittie, about 40 lbs. She is uninterested in the cat and is good with the other dogs. She is shy around strangers and will need someone who is patient and understanding. She is crate-trained and housebroken. She walks well on a leash and would be fine in an apartment with daily exercise.
