Al is a sweet loving Chihuahua mix. He is about a year old and weighs 9 lbs. He loves people and is happiest when he is cuddled up on a lap and/or giving kisses and getting a belly rub. He also enjoys exercise and is thrilled to go walking, hiking or jogging with you. He especially loves kids.
He is not a dog park dog and does not enjoy meeting other dogs. However, he can live with other dogs if he given lots of time and patience to get to know them. He gets on better with small dogs but he has been living and playing happily with our 75lb and 85 lb goldendoodles but it did take him a couple of weeks to get used to them.
He is fine being left home alone during the day but should not be left outside unsupervised for long periods of time as he will bark when he gets bored or distracted. He is very smart and would do well in an obedience class.
Al would make a great addition to any family!
