Meet Albert!
Albert is a 7-month-old Chihuahua mix with a big heart and a gentle soul. At just 14 pounds, he’s the perfect size to join you on the couch or curl up on a cozy blanket at your feet—his favorite spot! This little guy can be shy at first, but once he feels safe, he’ll shower you with loyalty and love.
Albert is wonderful with other dogs and gets along politely with cats. He’s submissive and respectful, even when his older, crankier foster siblings let him know their limits. He’s a bit nervous around men and loud noises, but with patience and reassurance, he’s gaining confidence every day.
Albert loves the simple joys in life—running around the backyard, zooming through the house now and then, and spending time with his people. He’s still learning the ropes with house training and chewing but responds well to gentle guidance and positive reinforcement. He’s eager to learn and thrive with a family who will continue helping him grow.
Albert would be an amazing first dog for a family with children. He’s sweet, approachable, and loves to be petted, though he’s not a fan of being carried. His favorite moments are when he can snuggle up next to you or simply be close to his people.
If you’re looking for a loving and mellow puppy who will be a loyal companion, Albert is ready to meet you. Apply today to make him part of your family!
