Background: Grimm is a chocolate fawn spotted on white long coat male. Just turned one year old. We  made him here at SFC. His parents are GiaVanni and Spenser. Spenser is no longer a part of our breeding program, but GiaVanni is still active and on our website now. Grimm unfortunately didn't pass ALL of his required heath testing is not eligible for our breeding program, but he will be a wonderful companion for the right family. His patellas are both healthy and free of luxation. His eyes were certified by an ophthalmologist and registered with OFA.  His heart revealed a soft murmur. We recommend having him examined by a cardiologist for a second opinion. He is also an intact male and will required to be neutered by his new owner. He is already registered with the AKC as, "SFC's Grimm Monkey, That Funky Monkey." His DNA is also on file with the AKC. He has been genetically health tested with Embark Vet and results are linked above. Grimm is a sweet loving little guy and is affectionate, smart and witty. He gets along with small dogs of both genders. We are unsure how he would be with larger breeds due to not owning any. We are also not sure how he will do with small children or cats. What we do know is that he does fine with strangers at the Vet, does well in the car and is treat motivated. He has been trained to use a dog door, wear belly bands and use pee pads. He is  young enough and adaptable to join a new home and family and be trained just how you need him to be. 

 He is not leash trained currently, but I'm sure he can be taught. He enjoys being brushed and groomed. He is not fully potty trained, as he is coming from a breeding environment, but he is used to wearing a belly band. This is an overall very healthy little guy and would provide many years of companionship to a new home seeking an adult Chihuahua for a lower cost than our puppies. Please consider adopting him!  I'm happy to allow you to meet him after you send us in an application and it has been pre-approved. I've found that over the years, once a male is no longer around intact females, their marking tendency can be minimized. He is on Purina ProPlan for food and does well on this, but his dry food can be changed.    

 

 I would prefer whomever tries to apply to him to come to Salem, and not be in a hurry. A lot of my Washington customers try to do an adoption and drive home in one day. This would work, but you need to be prepared to drive Grimm back to me if the placement does not work out. A puppy application must already be submitted and pre-approved prior to the meet in greet.  All adult dogs have a 14 day money back guarantee if the dog does not work out for you in your home. The dog must be brought back to the original location of pick up by scheduled appointment, and a refund will be issued to you within 30 days, minus any fees you may have had during the initial adoption. 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 Grimm, please use our puppy application for consideration.
