Plenty of Pets

Boss is a nine-year-old Chihuahua mix who weighs nine pounds.

He can be shy at first, but warms up to people quickly. He’s house-trained but he hates the crate. He’s not destructive when left at home alone.

Boss likes other dogs, but isn’t used to children or cats. He enjoys walks and he loves to snuggle.
Boss is neutered; vaccinated, treated for parasites, micro chipped., and had his teeth cleaned.

If you think Boss could be the right addition to your family, contact Coastal K9 Rescue through the website or Facebook or email [email protected]
