Chino Chihuahua & Italian Greyhound Mix Newmanstown, PA

My name is Chino and I was born in June 2011. I am a Chig, a Chihuahua-ItalianGreyhound mix. My beginnings were not nice, nor were the humans involved kind to me, so I am just now learning to trust humans.

My foster mommy is convinced that at some point in my life I was beaten upside the head because, when this rescue group first got me, I would shake in fear, and cower if anyone raised a hand near my head. Now, I am not only getting over that, but I can do agility jumps with grace, and I love to run on the treadmill with my foster mom. I am quite athletic in nature and would do well with further agility training.

I am looking for a warm-hearted person who will take time to train me, since I am eager to learn. So far, I have learned to play the piano (see video), and I can take a bow.

Please consider me if you are thinking about rescuing a dog. I have come such a long way in rescue and I am ready for the next step, in a home where I can run, frolic and play without fear of abuse. Please go to www.atailtotell.com and fill out the adoption application under the adopt a friend tab.
