Ernie's Story
Ernie's owner was volunteering at a spay/neuter clinic on the reservation in Shiprock over a year ago, and this little guy was brought in off the street. He seemed to be a stray, and nobody claimed him. They got him vetted and neutered and he went to his new owners house. He's done pretty well there for over a year, enjoying the company of her other smaller dogs, but not so much the bigger dogs. He also sometimes picks on the cat. And, her 2 year old nephew has not been taught how to properly treat a dog, so he can be reactive to toddlers, especially the ones that don't treat him properly The biggest problem is that he is hellbent on escaping if there's a chicken on their property or any of the neighboring properties. He's killed several, and the neighbors are not pleased. Ernie is about 1 1/2 years old, 17 lb, and the vet thinks he's a terrier Dachshund mix because he has such a long body. He loves to cuddle, and sleeps in the bed with his mom, does well in the kennel, is potty trained, and uses a doggy door. He's neutered, and up to date on vaccines. Located in the Cortez Colorado area. <br/><br/>Please call or text Suede at (970) 560-8248 if you're interested in little Ernie.
