Rico's Story

Rico is a 2-year-old Chihuahua with the most adorable markings — he truly looks like he dipped himself into a bucket of white paint.<br/><br/>This little man is playful, goofy, and loves to perform for attention. When he’s not dancing for love, he’s stretching out in a dramatic sploot, bouncing around the room, or proudly trotting off with a toy. Rico weighs under 15 pounds and is fully grown, so what you see is exactly what you get.<br/><br/>He’s an active, spirited pup who enjoys running, playing, scampering, and burrowing into blankets. He even met a cat for the first time today and did great — we think he could integrate well into a multi-pet home.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a fun, spunky companion to brighten your home, Rico is your guy!
