Pablo, chihuahua

Pablo is a precious male chihuahua dog being kept at Chihuahua Rescue & Transport, Inc.

Pablo gets along great with other dogs, but would prefer to be placed in a household without children. Don't worry: He has already been vaccinated, house-trained and neutered. Pablo is a special needs pet, so please inquire about his specific care requirements.

Here's what Pablo's friends at Chihuahua Rescue & Transport, Inc. think of him:

Say hello to Pablo, one of the sweetest, cuddliest boys around! His chocolate brown coat and alert ears make him the most handsome little guy you will ever see. And, this guy is a love bug! He will follow you everywhere! Pablo makes himself at home in any room by finding some soft spot and burying himself in it. He would most love to be in your lap, next to you or curled under your chin. He’s a great work-from-home buddy and has the sweetest smile, too. Pablo loves going outside and soaking up the sun with them. He has the silkiest, softest skin and chocolate brown fur. You’ll want to be touching him all the time — and Pablo wouldn’t mind!

A bit more on Koala Maverick:

Hi! I am Koala, and I am seven years old and weigh about 16 pounds. I am a pretty independent pup, and spend most of my day sleeping under my favorite chair. I am well-mannered and do not bark or bite. I get a little scared of loud noises (loud sneezes, loud kitchen noises, etc.), but am not scared of thunderstorms! I like to hide under beds and chairs sometimes, but I do not jump on any furniture. I like walks around the neighborhood, but if we walk for too long, I may need a lift back home. Belly rubs and squeaky toys are my favorite pastime activities. I am good at climbing up stairs, but need a lift on the last few steps while going downstairs. I need a little extra TLC and get eyedrops twice a day. Do I sound like your kind of guy?
