Background: Gizmo was born at SFC! Gizmo is a young retired male so he would be a great addition to any family looking for a young dog that wants to skip the puppy stages. Gizmo is a black Sable and white, long coat male Chihuahua. He comes to you up to date on all core vaccines, including his Rabies and he is microchipped. He has had one dental cleaning with our Vet and did well. We are looking for a family or individual who will give Gizmo time to acclimate to a new environment. Gizmo loves people and other dogs. He comes to you pee pad trained and dog door trained, as well as crate trained. He is a minimal barker. He is treat motivated. He is leash trained! He comes from wonderful bloodlines. He eats Purina ProPlan and loves it. This is a dog that would love to join you camping, hiking, fishing, etc. He loves the outdoors. He has been genetically health tested through Embark Vet. He has had his patellas, eyes and heart all certified with the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals. 

​

 He has seen an eye specialist to have his eyes certified, he had his patellas certified which are both free from luxation and his heart evaluated which is free of a murmur. All of this can be verified on the database of the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals. 

 We cannot guarantee he is potty trained in a new environment though. We recommend having an open mind when adopting a young adult and plan to reintroduce potty training how you would want him trained. Gizmo is available to a local or out of state home. Shipping can be arranged for an additional charge. His name can be changed. 

 Like any of our other dogs we have available for adoption, we follow the 3-3-3 rule so please allow for time for him to adjust by using the chart below.  He is a little shy in new settings and with new people, but once he is comfortable he really is a character!

​

He has been genetically health tested with Embark and is clear in all breed relevant categories. 

 We encourage all prospective adopters to really think this through and not take on a dog that may not work for you. We want his next home to be his forever home. To submit an application for Gizmo please use our puppy/dog application for consideration.
