Chico's Story
I'm sugar, I'm spice, I'm everything nice. I'm Chico!<br/><br/>According to my former family my mom was a Pit Bull and my dad was a Shih Tzu. As you can imagine, I turn a lot of heads while out on my walks. Some may say I look "weird", but I am proud to stand out in the crowd! My uncommon breed mix actually allows me to experience the best of both worlds - I will play with my tuff tug but also cuddle up on your lap for affection. <br/><br/>I am not always keen on sharing my toys during playtime and am working with the staff to understand that I don't need to feel defensive over my possessions. They suspect that I may not have had anything to call my own in my previous home and therefore feel the need to protect my stuffies now that I have them. Due to this behavior, the staff has determined that I am best suited for a home with teens and adults. I do not have an issue coexisting with the other pups here but may have a bit of a hard time sharing my possessions with them. For adopters with a resident dog, please keep in mind that we will need a slow introduction to the concept of sharing. I am a bright and eager student and will surely impress you with my ability to learn new things. Just give me a chance and you won't be disappointed!
