My story

Meet Cisco (Crisco, Potato, Tubby, Gremlin) . Cisco came in with Coco, who is also on our website. Cisco is a sweet, laid back 7-pound, 12 year-old male Apple Head Chihuahua mix who wants nothing more than to have a home again. Cisco is a little tiny bundle of personality. Cisco is not nervous about meeting  people as he knows people mean FOOOOOD! Cisco's love language is definitely food.  He will be sure to let you know when you have done it wrong or you forgot. It is always cookie time in his world. It became very clear that he lived primarily off of  people food as he has begging down pat.  We worked very hard with Cisco on his diet and boundaries when it comes to who's food is who's! After some good boundary training though he did stop trying to take people food which was awesome! Cisco is a little neuro spicy baby and as such has his extra sassy days where you just can't fully please him.... this is Gremlin mode! He knows what he wants and he will give it his all to let you know what he wants with his quirky little bark. Cisco is house-trained and his favorite activties are sleeping and and watching tv with you.  Cisco gets along fine with the small dogs in his foster home but he is an older dog and does not play with other dogs. Cisco is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. His adoption fee of $350 helps offset the rescue's medical expenses. If you want to adopt both Cisco and Coco they would be $400 for the pair! If you live in the Phoenix metro area and think he could be the right fit for you, please complete an adoption application*:   helpadogsmile.org/adoption-application/   *Please note that the application is not a commitment to adopt–it is a tool used to help determine if a dog and applicant would make a good match. Applications are forwarded to the foster family for review and follow-up. May 18, 2025, 12:53 pm

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Cisco, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
