Tony is a 4 yr old male, neutered 8 lb Chihuahua-mix with the softest, shortest blond hair.    He is incredibly sweet and playful.  He loves attention but does not demand it.  Tony is crate trained and house broken.  Tony will sit in front of you and “yip” when he wants to go outside for a potty break or to explore the yard.  Tony 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 problem.  Tony gets along with other dogs of all sizes.   He has been known to bark at cats but does not chase them or pursue them.  Tony 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.

He and JJ are brothers and make a wonderful pair.   While we would love to find a home willing to adopt them both, we do feel JJ would be fine being adopted alone as well.  Please consider making both brothers part of your family.  These little guys have been together their whole lives and are such a perfect duo.



Please contact  app@aarfhouston.org  for more information about this dog.
You can apply online by clicking on Application . Once your application is approved, we will schedule a meet and greet at one of our adoption events. Thank you for considering a rescue!

The adoption fee includes vaccinations, Bordetella, de-worming, rabies, spay/neuter and microchip. There is a an additional $12.99 fee for Home Again for a lifetime registration of the microchip.

Puppies cannot be adopted outside of the Houston area until they are spay/neutered after they are 4 months old.

It is against the law in the State of Texas for a rescue not to be sterilized so we have to make sure it gets completed and that we have record of it.

NOTE: In our bios, we provide information based on our volunteer's experience with a particular dog; such as temperament, training, and ability to get along with others.

AARF is a 501(c)3 Non Profit, all breed, no kill organization. Our group is always in need of donations in order to continue to give the needed medical care to our rescues. Adoption fees do not begin to cover all of the medical costs. Any donation , no matter how small is a big help and is greatly appreciated. Please help us to continue to help them. Thank you.
