Learn more about the Chihuahua.

Sweet Sheldon is a tiny, senior Chihuahua who was recently surrendered to us because his owner could no longer care for him. Sheldon is 14 years old and weighs only 4 pounds. He needs a loving home that understands and can provide extra care for tiny dogs like him.

Sheldon is a happy boy who loves to cuddle with his foster mom. He has a habit of sleeping with his butt up in the air, which is quite amusing! Currently, Sheldon is living with other small dogs and getting along well. He has also lived with cats without any issues. Due to his size and age, it's not recommended for him to be in a home with young children. Sheldon uses potty pads in his foster home but also tries to alert you when he needs to go out. He is crate trained but prefers a gated area if he needs to be confined, as he requires access to water. Although Sheldon can walk on a leash, he prefers the freedom of a fenced yard or pen.

It's important to note that Sheldon has a grade 5 heart murmur and is on medication for this. He will require ongoing medical care to keep him in top shape!

Sheldon is neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, flea- and worm-treated, and tested negative for heartworm. He has also had a dental procedure in the past. Sheldon will come with a supply of his medications. His adoption fee is $100, in hopes of finding him a special forever home!
