Pinto's Story
Pinto (aka "Bean," "Baby," "Stinker Boy")<br/><br/>Meet Pinto, an affectionate, seven-year-old Chihuahua/Pug mix who weighs ten pounds! He's low to moderate energy, a big napper and relaxer with cute little bursts of playfulness, especially with his favorite tennis ball. He's very people-oriented and loves following around like a little shadow.<br/><br/>Pinto adjusts wonderfully to new situations. He's amazing with every person he meets and spent a weekend with three kids, who all fought over who got to cuddle him for movie nights! He's perfect with guests and does well left alone too.<br/><br/>He's almost 100% potty trained, perfect on a leash, and loves following his person around off-leash in the yard chasing his ball. He knows sit, come, stay, and "good boy"! His days are full of walks, fetch, car rides (he falls right asleep!), dinner time, lots of naps, and cuddles. He responds especially well to reassurance and praise, and is a smart, food-motivated boy.<br/><br/>Pinto is still building his confidence around other dogs, so he'll do best in a home with a calm, relaxed canine companion or as the only dog. He'd thrive with a patient adopter who can offer plenty of affection, attention, and companionship.<br/><br/>**What his foster says about him:**<br/>"Since Pinto arrived I have seriously fallen in love with this guy. He really has a great demeanor and is truly sooo easy going. He just wants to nap, cuddle, be held for hours, and constantly loved on."<br/><br/>Pinto previously tested positive for heartworm and was treated before traveling north.<br/><br/>**INTERESTED IN ADOPTING?**<br/>To adopt apply on our website [www.truenorthrescue.org/adopt](https://www.truenorthrescue.org/adopt) and email adopt@truenorthrescue.org to follow up on your application.<br/><br/>PLEASE DO NOT EMAIL TO ASK IF HE/SHE IS AVAILABLE.
