Hap Chihuahua Mix Seattle, WA

We will be reviewing adoption applications for Hap on April 22nd.

Animal Profile: Hap is an approximately ~14lb, 3-year-old neutered male Chihuahua mix that joined us from CA on 12/17. He was found as a stray and was very scared but he warmed up quickly. He's been kenneled with other dogs.

Foster Update: Hap is settling in well and is such a sweetheart. He really just wants to be your best friend. True to his breed mix, Hap bonds hard with his people and wants to be by your side. He is being fostered with another dog in his foster home, and they got along great. Hap has a fairly mellow temperament inside the home. He really enjoys snuggling up, lounging in a cozy dog bed, and hanging out by your side. He is getting much better with his crate manners when home alone, and he will enjoy a kong during his down time in his crate. As a pup who builds a strong bond with his people, Hap really relies on clear leadership and confidence from his humans. He can be a bit insecure/nervous by nature, and having his humans take the lead really helps him feel more relaxed and confident outside of the home. Hap's foster mom has been working hard at teaching Hap a proper heel on leash, place command, in addition to basic obedience. He is absolutely thriving! Hap has even found himself to be an excellent jogging/running partner. Hap would love a forever home that can continue to provide the leadership for him to thrive. He will need to be in an adult-only home, and he would do best with someone who has some past dog experience, or is confident to be able to keep up his training and advocate for his needs. He is such a loving companion that is eager to learn and be your best friend. He is going to make someone extremely happy!
