Breed:
Chihuahua

Male
Big fan of: His friends! Uno is very affectionate with his favorite people. If you introduce yourself slowly to Uno, you will quickly become one of his buddies!
Not a fan of: Unusual people and objects. Uno feels scared around unfamiliar things like walkers, canes, big coats and hats and may bark at them. He feels a bit uncertain around other dogs, but in time, he could learn to make canine pals.
Special features: Uno is very eager to learn basic manners and will work hard to learn them—especially when his favorite treats are involved! He can be a bit whiny, but the behavior staff can give you tips on how to help him with this. When you go out for a walk with Uno, he'll stick right by your side. With guidance and supervision in his new home, Uno will learn quickly to only use the bathroom outside.
Dream home: Uno would do best with an adopter who has dog experience. This small pup doesn't feel comfortable around young children, and would prefer a home with teens-and-up. Uno does have some skin issues that will require regular TLC.
