About Marvin

Adoption Fee: $100
Chihuahua mix
Age: Adult
Sex: Male

Marvin (black/brown, estimated 8 years old)is a sweet older chihuahua. Sometimes can be a grumpy, grumbly guy when dogs or humans pester him or invade his space, but very loving and sweet with his favorite humans and people/dogs that are kind with him. Playful and mellow throughout the day, and extremely low maintenance. Has some gum disease/tooth decay. Harold (tan, estimated 8 years old) is a loving and snuggly adult chihuahua. Loves attention and play. He gets along well with most smaller dogs but has some 'dominant' tendencies and acts as fun-police when dogs around him are too excited; he'll nip at their heels or neck to keep them in check. He has a VERY strong fear response to most larger dogs, and acts aggressively (pulling on leash, chasing after/nipping) when he is afraid. I would not advise homing him with a large dog unless you have a lot of patience in getting him used to larger friends. He would do great in a suburban or rural home where he can be let out into the yard, but currently lives in the city and is used to urban environments. Both dogs currently live in a small apartment situation, ~500 sq. ft., and so they're used to and comfortable even in small spaces. The dogs enjoy each other's company and get along/keep each other entertained. May adopt together ($150 re-homing fee) or separately ($100 re-homing fee each). Re-homing fees are not negotiable. Both dogs are microchipped.
