About Twiz

Chihuahua / Schnauzer
Age: Senior
Sex: Male

This animal is available to licensed rescue groups only. Please do not enquire unless with a licensed rescue group. [Read About Natural Incontinence Care] Twiz is a 15 year old chihuahua mix that belonged to my mother who passed away due to covid. She was retired and was able to spend lots of time loving on Twiz. I am currently keeping him and have all of his medical records. Twiz needs more time than we are able to give him. We also have another dog that is rough with Twiz and it makes Twiz very nervous and he cowers to protect himself. He is deaf and wears a diaper and needs to keep his eyes on you or he has a hard time finding you. He does not like to be alone. He does very well sleeping in the crate beside my bed (if I cover him up with his favorite blanket). He has to be crated at night or he will wonder around. I also believe he has trouble with depth perception. It's going to take a very special person to adopt Twiz. He has a good appetite, is perky, and likes the sunshine. He really needs someone that is home more than we are and other dogs are fine as long as they are not aggressive or rough. I wish I could keep little Twiz but my home is not the best place for him. We use to joke and say, 'Twiz is in a retirement home at mom's.' I know it's been hard for Twiz too. He is used to being held three quarters of the day. Like I said, it will take a special person to adopt Twiz.
