Polo

Introducing Polo, a cute and tiny Chihuahua with a big personality, weighing in at just 1.8kg. This little dynamo is active, playful, and wonderfully lively, bringing endless joy and entertainment to any household. Polo adores human interaction and thrives on attention, making him an ideal companion for those who cherish the affectionate and spirited nature of Chihuahuas.

Polo is a foodie at heart, relishing his Royal Canin Puppy kibbles and small pieces of chicken necks, along with a healthy home-cooked meal for dinner. As a puppy, he is still mastering the art of training, but he has already aced using the soft flap doggy door. Indoors is where he feels most at home, loving to be near his people. On his favorite days, you'll find him zipping around the backyard doing zoomies, a testament to his boundless energy. Despite his small size, Polo is quite vocal when socializing and playing with other small dogs that match his energy level.

To ensure Polo thrives in his new home, he would ideally be suited to a lifestyle with a secured courtyard or apartment with a safe balcony. His affection for people means he would make a wonderful companion for families with older, respectful children. He's already had two of his vaccinations, and his new family will need to ensure he receives the third one.

Polo is a charming little character who promises to bring much love and laughter into the lives of those lucky enough to welcome him into their home. If you have a secure space and a love for the Chihuahua breed, he may be the perfect addition to your family. Embrace the opportunity for a delightful adventure with Polo, and let him fill your days with joy and warmth.
