<br/>Ethan is a tiny puppy with a surprisingly bold little spirit. At around 9 weeks old, this Chihuahua mix may be small, but he carries himself like he’s got somewhere important to be. He came into rescue as part of an owner surrender with his mom (11 lbs and we've included a pic of her as well), and we suspect dad is similar in size. Ethan is expected to stay on the smaller side once fully grown.<br/><br/>Ethan is being fostered in Austin, Texas and is available for adoption out of state. Transport can be arranged by the rescue once matched with an approved adopter. The adoption process includes an application, phone interview, video call with the foster home, virtual home visit, and vet and personal reference checks.<br/><br/>Right now, Ethan is soaking up the world around him. He’s a spunky, brave little guy who tends to dive into new situations with curiosity first, then checks back in once he’s decided everything is safe. He’s playful, wiggly, and full of that classic puppy energy, always ready to explore, engage, and see what’s next.<br/><br/>He’s doing well with other dogs and benefits from being around friendly, confident pups. His outgoing nature helps him jump right into play, and he enjoys having canine companions to interact with. Continued socialization with new people, environments, and experiences will be important as he grows, helping him build on that natural confidence in a positive way.<br/><br/>Like all puppies his age, Ethan just needs a little patience, structure, and consistency as he learns the basics. He’s still working on house training and crate training and will need a family ready to guide him through that process. Because he’s so young, he’ll do best in a home where someone is around more often than not to support his development and give him the attention he needs to thrive.<br/><br/>Ethan hasn’t been around cats or young children yet, but would likely do well in a home with respectful, well-mannered kids who understand how to interact with a small puppy. A steady environment will help him continue to grow into a confident, well-adjusted dog.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a small puppy with a little extra confidence and personality, Ethan could be a great fit. He’s the kind of dog who will keep things fun, keep you on your toes, and grow into a loyal, entertaining companion with the right guidance.<br/>___<br/><br/>***Listed BREED and AGE - We are taking our best guess & recommendations from our veterinarian on age, breed and size when fully grown. We rarely know a dog's exact age nor are we able to tell the true or full breed mix of dogs as our information is limited most of the time. ***<br/><br/>Interested in applying to adopt?
