About

Meet Steve

Steve is a 12-year-old Chihuahua/Pomeranian mix who weighs just under 10 pounds and has all the charm and sweetness you'd expect from a little dog with a big heart. Steve may be a senior, but he’s still full of personality and affection. He’s friendly, loyal, and enjoys following his people from room to room, always wanting to be part of whatever you’re doing. Steve is house-trained and does well going outside, though he was recently neutered and may mark indoors on occasion. He responds well to gentle verbal correction. He’s crate-trained and often chooses to nap in his crate, but when it comes to bedtime, he’d much prefer to sleep in bed with his humans. He’ll settle in another room if needed, though he might whine a bit at first. He enjoys time in the yard, brief strolls, or even longer walks, and he walks nicely on a leash. Steve knows how to sit and rides well in the car. He has been great with the small dogs in the foster's home and when he met a couple of larger neighbor dogs, he got along with them just fine, and he’s comfortable around both men and women. While he hasn’t been around children in his current foster home, he’s expected to do well with calm, respectful kids. Steve is looking for a loving home where he can stay close to his people and enjoy his golden years in comfort. If you’re searching for a small, devoted companion who’s happiest curled up by your side, Steve might be just the dog you’ve been waiting for. His minimum adoption fee is $200 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.
