Macchiato's Story

Hi, I’m Macchiato! I was born around January 13, 2026, and I’m a Chihuahua/Terrier mix expected to grow into a perfect medium-sized 25–40 pounds. I may be tiny now, but I’ve already mastered the art of being both playful and peaceful. I’m a sweet, mellow boy who loves romping with my siblings and then curling up in a cozy lap like I’ve had a long day at the office.<br/><br/>Here’s why I’m the perfect blend:<br/><br/>Gentle Player – I enjoy wrestling and zooming, but I keep it polite.<br/><br/>Lap Lounger – Snuggles are just as important as playtime.<br/><br/>Sweet Soul – I have a soft, affectionate temperament.<br/><br/>Balanced Energy – Fun when it’s time for fun, chill when it’s time to relax.<br/><br/>I’m still a baby, so potty training, leash skills, and crate routines will come with time and patience. Right now, my main job is growing, learning, and being adorable. I have a naturally calm disposition, which should make training a smooth process as I mature.<br/><br/>My dream home? One that appreciates a well-balanced pup who can match your energy — playful when you’re ready, relaxed when you need downtime. I’d thrive with love, consistency, and plenty of lap access.<br/><br/>My adoption fee is $550, this fee covers my first year of vaccinations, spay/neuter, and microchip. Do I sound like the dog for you? You can fill out an application to adopt me at http://www.thecantufoundation.org/adopt.html
