Best Tricks:
Henry likes to make you think he's friendly~he will park his butt at your feet and stare up at you, as if waiting for a pet. When you bend over and extend your hand, he runs away like you tried to poke his eyes out! Ha ha ha; he also pees on command...

Arrival Story:
I wanted a small dog and had searched for a long time. I went to the Thurston County animal shelter in Olympia, Washington, and they took my name and number in case a little dog came to the shelter. The shelter then gave my name and number to a lady who does chihuahua rescue. When I got Henry, he was very well behaved, but a bit timid. He is no longer timid ~ of course, he isn't that well behaved anymore either. But I am happy to say that he is my #1 baby boy!!!!

Forums Motto:
Don't Shop ~ Adopt!!
