About Taurus

Adoption Fee: $500
Chihuahua / Miniature Pinscher
Age: Puppy
Sex: Male

Looking for an already housetrained little black dog who will brighten your days for years to come? Consider Taurus. Taurus is an 18 month - 2 year old, 17 pound, neutered male Chihuahua/Min Pin/Yorkie mix (DNA tested). Taurus is a fun guy who may take his time to get to know you. He will then want to be your friend, go for walks with you, zoom around the yard whenever possible, perch high on a couch pillow while you watch TV or work on the computer & sleep in your bed (under the covers much of the time). Taurus is cautious when meeting new people. Taurus would love bonding & learning with his best friend while taking training classes. Our limited experience observing Taurus's reaction to small children leads us to recommend a household without younger children. Taurus would consider a canine playmate a plus. He likes all the dogs he has met. The more time Taurus has spent with the dogs in his foster home, the more he has enticed them to play with him. A small dog secure FENCED yard is a must. Quick Taurus loves to roam & survey his domain. His preferred activity level is higher than average. Taurus is housetrained, neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and up to date on heartworm, flea & tick preventatives. Our vet's exam showed Taurus to be 18 months to 2 years old & in excellent health. Taurus may not be a health food nut, but he considers broccoli as good as a few of the treats he has been offered. Oddly enough, although a chewer of sticks outside, we have not found a crunchy treat Taurus wants. He has favored several varieties of the soft ones. Taurus's adoption fee is $500. If you're interested in Taurus, first you may want to see him in action & learn more about him on his public Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61566382906267) or search on Taurus of Heather's Foster Dogs. If then you're even more interested, then go to heathersfosterdogs.org. Using the menu at the top of the page, click on 'Adoption Application.' Complete & submit an adoption application online. You will be contacted after it is forwarded to Taurus's foster grandpa. No meeting will be scheduled before he has had an opportunity to review an application. *** Foster Location: South suburbs of Chicago. Please no applications outside the greater Chicagoland metropolitan area (within 2 hours) ***
