Porkchop - Adopted

Name: Porkchop

Age: 1 year   

Sex: Male (altered)

Breed: Chihuahua Doxie Mix?

Location: Southern Arizona

Vet Info: Porkchop is neutered and has had a one year rabies shot. 

Owner Info: Porkchop was taken in by a local rescue when he was just a puppy and has been with this rescue for 8 months. His vision issues became apparent as he got older, and he seems to see better at night. His eyes are reportedly healthy. He is 22 pounds. He is an outdoor dog during the day (in a crate inside at night) who is not yet housebroken or leash-trained. He is shy when he first meets someone but then warms up quickly and does quite well. He is a smart dog, and figures out things, like how to use a dog door, quickly. The rescue says that Porkchop is "a sweet dog and very easy to love!"

Update 11/18/14: Sadly, Porkchop has still not found a home. He is SO SWEET! We did see a dog a few weeks ago that looked like his twin. It is a corgi / dachshund mix. So perhaps you can change the breed on his listing or mentioned in the write-up about him that we feel he is part dachshund or Corgi. He's very muscular and strong. Even though his mother was a Chihuahua mix, you would not be able to tell it by his appearance.
