Meet Chicharrón - A Little Dog with a Big Heart!

Chicharrón is a small Chihuahua mix with a gentle soul and lots of love to give-once he gets to know you! He can be a bit shy and reserved at first, but with patience and a calm environment, his sweet and silly personality starts to shine.

Once he feels safe, Chicharrón becomes a loyal little shadow, enjoying quiet walks, cozy nap spots, and one-on-one time with his trusted people. He thrives in a peaceful home and forms strong bonds with those who give him the time and space he needs.

Because he can be nippy when overwhelmed, Chicharrón would do best in an adult-only home or with older, dog-savvy kids who understand his boundaries.

If you're looking for a pint-sized companion who just needs a little time to trust, Chicharrón might be your perfect match.
