Vet Info: Taco is not neutered and has not had a recent heartworm test.  He is next due for the rabies vaccine on November 24, 2016.  Taco weighs about 4 pounds.  Taco's owner writes that he is partially blind due to cataracts, and also has arthritis.

Owner Info: Taco is an adorable and very tiny fellow whose owner feels he deserves "better" than she can provide.  She rescued him from someone who was giving him away at a local supermarket; she was afraid of what might have happened if she did not.  She has had Taco for about one year.  She is very much hoping he can have the home that he deserves!  

Taco is an indoor dog with run of the house, he is not housebroken or leash trained.  Taco is described as "nervous".  Taco is possessive of toys, treats, or food, and his owner gave us more details:  "Whoever is holding him no one else can pat him and he don't want any other animal near him for he cannot see well. He tries to snap but he don't have many teeth. He don't mean anything by it."  He currently lives with two other dogs and a few cats, but prefers to be by himself. "He stays by himself mostly only gets up to use bathroom or eat and drink".  

His owner is hoping we can help her find the right home for Taco!
