Sir Charles Widget
Breed : chihuahua smooth coat
9 pound male - Neutered

Widget is really going to need something unique ...because he, himself is unique. Widget was a neglect case and will need a empathetic adopter. Widget sired some litters so he was intact up until a few weeks ago when the rescue had him vetted. He has the physical signs of neglect...had severe flea infestation with dermatitis and hair loss ...but his hair is growing in and he no longer itches. He needs to gain some weight ...nothing some decent groceries won't fix.

Widget currently lives with 9 other dogs big and small...he likes them-- they like him. He is free ranging in the house during the day and is a respectful guest. He can be crated, but he likes sleeping in bed ...under the covers...at your feet. He can walk ok on a leash and for a chihuahua he's quiet. His only downfall is that he's working on housetraining... no poo inside only pee ...he wears a belly band and he's improving. In his previous home, he did not have access to the outside; in fact, he rarely had much access to anything so he needs time. He's kind ...he's loving ...he's good with kids ...he's safe ...but he himself needs a safe, loving place to land.
 
He will love you FOREVER!

Charles Widget's baby boy, Prince Charming (adopted) can also be seen on our website.
