My story

Peter is the definition of a social butterfly. He absolutely loves people and dogs, and with his gorgeous ears and charming personality, he's the cool kid everywhere he goes. Although he may look like a Chihuahua, Peter has the heart of an adventurer and is always ready to explore the world by your side. Peter is a wonderfully balanced little boy who enjoys both playtime and relaxing at home. He's house-trained, used to going potty outside, and sleeps comfortably indoors. His favourite things include tasty chicken, playing with balls and rope toys, and, most of all, spending time with his favorite humans and canine friends. Nothing makes Peter happier than being surrounded by love and companionship. Peter's story is one of resilience. He was born on the streets and rescued alongside his mom and siblings in heartbreaking condition. Suffering from severe malnutrition, he had every reason to be fearful. Instead, from the very beginning, Peter showed nothing but gentleness, trusting the people who came to help him without fear or aggression. Today, Peter lives at the doggy hotel, where he has become an absolute superstar. He gets along beautifully with every dog he meets and even helps shy or struggling newcomers feel comfortable and confident. His kind, easygoing nature makes him a favorite among both dogs and people. If you're looking for a loyal, affectionate companion with a playful spirit, a gentle heart, and an adventurous soul, Peter is ready to become your best friend. Good with women: Yes Good with men: Yes Good with Kids: Yes Good with Other Dogs: Yes, he is a really easy going dog who loves playing and meeting new friends Good with Cats: Unknown - cat test can be arranged House trained: In progress, he goes potty in the garden or on a training pad, but he learns quickly. Crate trained: In progress Energy Level: Medium Can be handled/touched: Yes Barker: No, only when he's playing because he gets excited Flight risk: No, but extra caution should always be taken in the beginning Food aggressive: No, but it's recommended to feed all dogs separately. Walks on leash: In progress, at first he may pull a little on the leash, but with regular walks and consistency, it will gradually improve. He is a very good dog. Leash reactive to people or dogs: No Rides well in car: Yes Destructive: No Needs a Home with a Yard: Preferred Needs Another Dog in the Home: No Can live in an Apartment: Yes, he loves the outdoors so as long as he gets enough exercise Please visit our website niagaradogrescue.com to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs.
