Meet Scotty, Your Future Sofa Sidekick!
Say hello to Scotty, a charming young adult Chihuahua mix with a dashing white coat highlighted by beautiful black markings. Now young Scotty's a bit of a celebrity greeter—he may sound the alarm with a bark when new folks drop by, especially the tall ones, but give him a minute and time to see what your deal is and he'll be your best bud in no time. He's just checking if you're friend or foe, and spoiler alert, he's hoping you're a friend!
Living with Scotty is like having a shadow that barks, especially since he’s not a fan of solitude. He’s got a bit of FOMO (fear of missing out), so he's looking for someone who spends lots of time at home. Whether you work from your cozy living room or just love a good TV binge, Scotty wants to hang out with you. He’s got a tiny bit of a diva side, he prefers to be your one and only pet to soak up all your love.
Now, about those walks—Scotty isn't the marathon type. He's more of a chill, sniff-around-the-house kind of guy. Indoor adventures with puzzles or chews? Scotty's all in. And if he does venture out, just know he likes to keep things snappy and close to home. On the leash, he might pull a little, but it’s nothing you can’t handle.
Scotty's ideal palace (ahem, home) would have all the best nap spots, a cushy couch, sunny windowsills, and maybe a plush rug or two. He's a bit of an escape artist in a Houdini-lite kind of way, so just keep an eye on him, especially around doors. He's just curious, after all!
No need for a parade of visitors with Scotty; he prefers the quiet life with mature company. He’d love a home without young kiddos, as he’s a gentleman of particular tastes and enjoys his peace and quiet.
So, if you’ve got a soft spot for a little dog with a big heart and an even bigger personality, Scotty could be your perfect match. He promises to be the loyal sidekick you didn’t know you needed, always there to make you smile after a long day. Ready to let Scotty steal your heart? He’s all set to move right in!
