Miguel's Story

Meet Miguel!<br/><br/>Miguel is a charming two-year-old Chihuahua with a big personality packed into his tiny eight-pound frame. This little guy is playful, affectionate, and happiest when he’s spending time with his people or romping around the backyard. Miguel loves to run, wrestle with his dog friends, and entertain himself with toys, making him a fun and engaging companion. When playtime is over, he’s more than happy to curl up and cuddle with his human—his sweet, loving side truly shines once he feels comfortable.<br/><br/>Miguel forms a strong bond with his person and truly loves his human. Because of this, he doesn’t necessarily want to share all of that attention and so would do best as the only dog in the home and in a household without young children. While he enjoys playing with other dogs and does well during social interactions, regular doggy playdates would be a wonderful way for him to enjoy canine companionship without feeling overwhelmed.<br/><br/>Miguel is crate trained and almost fully potty trained, continuing to improve with consistency. He can be vocal when he hears noises or unfamiliar people, so a quieter home environment would be ideal—apartment living would not be the best fit for him. He is looking for a home with a fenced in yard and ideally as the only dog. <br/><br/>Miguel is ready to find a forever family who will appreciate both his playful spirit and his deeply loyal, snuggly side.<br/><br/>Miguel is currently being fostered in Warren, RI and is available for adoption throughout New England.<br/><br/>*All breed listings are educated guesses and not guaranteed*
