My story

Age is estimated to be 4 years. Weight is 8 pounds. Breed: chihuahua mix. Commands: Kyle knows his name and will come when called. We are working on "stay" and "off". Food: kibble, which he enjoys. He self-regulates so his food is put down and he eats when he chooses. He gets 1/4 cup three times each day. Not food-driven but he gets treats as rewards. Is not destructive. Little interest in toys. Squeaky toys scare him. Low energy. No interest in being outside although this may change after winter. Housetrained but we stick to a routine and take him out about every four hours. He's eager to do what is necessary and quickly goes inside. No interest in meeting new people. He keeps his distance from visitors but allows slow approach  and gentle petting. Hasn't met other dogs or cats. Came in with several other dogs and was good with them Walks reasonably well on leash. Crated overnight and when alone during the day to increase his sense of security. Fosters are home most of the time. Rarely barks. Kyle is adorable and really wants to cuddle with his special person, nothing more. His ideal home would be spending quiet time with a female who can give him time to warm to her and feel safe. He's a wonderful little chap. He is still quite fearful of men    .    January 6, 2026, 2:20 pm

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