Bubba Gumbo's Story

Breed: Chihuahua mix<br/>Age: 10 wks. as of 3/17/26 <br/>Weight: 15 lbs.<br/>Good with dogs: yes<br/>Good with cats: unsure<br/>Good with kids: unsure<br/>Energy level: unsure<br/>Good with men/strangers: yes<br/>Hypoallergenic: no<br/><br/>Special home requirements or medical: none<br/><br/>Additional info:<br/><br/> Meet Bubba Gumbo: Your Future Best Friend! <br/>Looking for a loyal, energetic, and expert cuddle partner? Meet Bubba Gumbo! He is a 5-to-6-month-old, Chihuahua cross who is fully neutered and ready to find his forever family.<br/>Bubba is a healthy, happy puppy who is the perfect mix of youthful energy and deep affection.<br/> The Quick Facts<br/>Breed: Chihuahua Cross<br/>Age: 5-6 months old (Prime puppy age!)<br/>Size: 15 lbs (Perfect for laps, apartments, and road trips)<br/>Health: Fully neutered<br/> Personality & Social Skills<br/>Energy Level: Full of life, curious about the world, and highly enthusiastic.<br/>Meeting New People: He can be a little hesitant at first but give him just a few minutes and he warms up beautifully.<br/>Other Dogs: He plays wonderfully with other dogs, large and small! He is also incredibly respectful of boundaries set by adult and senior dogs. (He has not been tested with cats yet).<br/>Kids: He does great with older children! Because he can sometimes get "mouthy" when he is excited to play, some boundaries and training is needed when around younger children. <br/> World-Class Snuggler<br/>Once Bubba knows you are his person, he will stop at nothing to get close to you. His favorite place to be is snuggled up next to you on the couch or in bed. He is an expert cover-burrower; he loves to tunnel under the blankets and poke just his head out to keep an eye on you!<br/>The Perfect Pack Member: Bubba thrives on companionship. He experiences a little bit of separation anxiety when he is completely apart from his human for too long. However, if he has a doggy sibling around, his anxiety completely disappears! He doesn't even notice his humans are gone when he has a canine friend to keep him company. <br/> Training & Habits<br/>Leash Manners: He walks beautifully on his leash with minimal pulling, though he might occasionally pause to admire a pretty flower or watch a squirrel.<br/>Commands: He is highly food-motivated and loves his treats, which has made working on his basic commands a breeze!<br/>Puppy Quirks: Bubba is a natural paper shredder (he did eat some homework once!) and enjoys digging the occasional hole in the garden. However, he is very respectful of the home and does not destroy household items. Just keep plenty of chew toys around to keep his puppy mind busy!<br/> The Ideal Home<br/>Bubba Gumbo would make an incredible companion for a single adult, a couple, or a family with older children. He just wants a home where he can play, learn, and bury himself under the blankets next to his favorite humans.<br/>This smart, reliable boy has mastered his indoor-outdoor routine and boasts an almost flawless record in his foster's home beginning his 2nd week: <br/>Why Bubba Gumbo is a dream roommate:<br/>Doggy Door Pro: He knows exactly how to use a doggy door to handle his business outside independently.<br/>Great Communicator: When he's inside, he will politely stand or give a little scratch at the door to let you know he needs a potty break.<br/>Genius Backup Plan: If you're busy or away, Bubba is smart enough to use a designated pee pad instead.<br/>Accident-Free: Thanks to his incredible routine and smart decision-making, accidents inside the house are rare.<br/>Bubba Gumbo is adaptable, polite, and ready to bring his perfect manners to your home!<br/><br/>INTERESTED IN THIS PUP?
