Tad is available and ready to find his forever home! Tad came to us from Texas, where he was in the shelter. He is a Chihuahua / Dachshund mix, or Chiweenie. He is estimated to be about 5 years old and weighs around 5 pounds.

Meet Tad! This tiny ball of love is eager to share all his affection with his forever family. He absolutely loves being right next to his foster mom, following her around in hopes of snagging a tasty treat or some snuggly cuddles. Tad is super food motivated—he adores cheese and treats so much that he can’t help but do a happy little spin whenever he spots them!

Tad enjoys curling up in anyone's lap for some gentle pets and scratches or simply to keep warm. Being so small, he seeks out the coziest blankets and sunny spots to snuggle into. He also loves soaking up the sunshine outside, but he'll need a fully fenced yard to keep him safe. With his curious nature, Tad loves exploring his surroundings.

This sweet little guy is friendly with strangers and quickly warms up to new adults. He’s comfortable sleeping in his crate and handles being alone like a pro when his foster mom is away. Tad is mostly housebroken, with just the occasional accident.

While he gets along well with other dogs, he doesn't necessarily need a furry companion in his forever home. Tad is still figuring out how to play, but he’s slowly coming out of his shell with the help of his foster family. He can be a bit vocal, barking or whining when his foster mom leaves or returns, but most of the time, he’s a relaxed little buddy.

In his downtime, you’ll find Tad happily curled up beside you or snuggled in his cozy bed. He’s leash trained and enjoys his walks, although he does get easily distracted. Thanks to plenty of positive reinforcement, yummy treats, and the example set by his foster furry friend, Tad is making wonderful progress. Get ready to fall in love with this happy little guy!
