small dogs, free to a good home

Columbia near 2nd Ave, Seattle WA

Description

I need to find a loving home for my two dogs, as I cannot keep them in my new living situation. Both dogs are microchipped and housetrained, and surprisingly quiet for small dogs (no yapping!). Mostly up to date on shots/vaccines. Marvin (black/brown, estimated 8 years old, 10 lbs.) is a sweet older chihuahua. Very loving, cuddly, and sweet with his favorite humans and people/dogs that are gentle with him. Sometimes can be a grumpy, grumbly guy when dogs or humans pester him or invade his space. Playful and mellow throughout the day, and extremely low maintenance. Has some gum disease/tooth decay. Harold (tan, estimated 8 years old, 10 lbs.) is a loving and snuggly adult chihuahua. Loves attention and play, can be quite energetic when it's time to have fun, but is mellow and low maintenance and happy to lounge somewhere comfy most of the day. 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, just can be a bit overstimulated by all the big dogs out on walks or at city dog parks. Both dogs currently live in a small apartment situation, and so they're used to and comfortable even in small spaces. The dogs are used to each other's company and get along/keep each other entertained. May adopt together separately. Some basic supplies (beds, toys, bowls, kennel, food) may be included particularly if you adopt both. All reasonable inquiries will be considered, please note that if you ask questions already answered here I'll direct you back to this ad.
