Nitro ~ 6.5yo Chihuahua boy (On Trial 30/9/17)

Hi guys, I’m the fantastic Nitro! I’m a cute little 6.5 year old Chihuahua, weighing in at 3kgs, who is looking for a special person to love and care for me.

I’m a little shy at times and would prefer to be in the company of females rather then males. I’m currently living with 5 other small breed dogs, but I’m not fussed on having other dogs around and I’d rather my special human to have all eyes on me only. I’m living with a cat currently which i do enjoy chasing and growling at, so i wouldn’t be suitable to live with cats.

I do shed some hair and will require a brush every couple of days to help get the excess hair out of my coat. Fortnightly bathing is recommended, I do enjoy being bathed. I also need ongoing dental care as I just had a few teeth extracted (daily brushing with doggy tooth paste, dental biscuit diets, raw beef bones and denta sticks to keep my mouth healthy).

The most suitable home for me would be someone who is home all the time - a retired woman would be best. Preferably no other dogs or cats living in the home. If left alone, I will howl and cry so I do need someone home full time.

I have a lot of love and cuddles to give to the right person.
