Sanchito is a happy, tail-wagging senior who lights up every time you walk into the room. He absolutely adores his people and will gladly spend the day snoozing near your feet—though don’t be fooled, he still has a playful side and loves playing with toys.

Once he warms up to you (usually just a couple of days), his heart is completely yours. He’s very affectionate, loves attention, and enjoys being close to his people as much as possible.

This sweet older guy is fairly potty trained and does great when let outside regularly, especially after meals. He sleeps comfortably in his crate and settles in well for naps and bedtime.

Sanchito has done well with other small dogs but can be growly with larger dogs, so he’d likely do best with small dog companions or as the only dog. He hasn’t been kid-tested yet. So far, he’s been a fan of everyone he’s met and greets new people with a wagging tail and lots of love.

If you’re looking for a loyal, gentle companion who still enjoys a little playtime, Sanchito might be your perfect match.
