JJ is a 5 yr old male, neutered 11 lb Chihuahua mix with very striking coloring and an adorable curly tail. JJ is incredibly sweet and affectionate. He loves attention and will flop over on his back for belly rubs. He loves to give kisses and hugs. JJ is crate trained and potty trained. JJ is playful but wants nothing more than a lap to curl up and sleep in. He will sleep happily in his crate all night, or sleep in bed with you with no problems. JJ gets along with other dogs of all sizes but will be vocal with larger dogs so they must be tolerant. He has been known to bark at cats but does not chase them or pursue them. JJ makes a great guard dog and will bark to let you know if anyone is around or there is a suspicious noise. Once everything is confirmed to be safe, he settles down quickly and loves to greet everyone with kisses and affection. JJ would do best in a home where there are no children under the age of 12 that might pull his tail or chase him. He tends to get scared and defensive if that happens.
