However, mixed-breed dogs, lovingly known as mutts, encompass a wonderful variety of traits and are often some of the most cherished and lovable companions.

Description:

This adorable 3-year-old, 12-pound Chihuahua is already settling into foster care and proving what a wonderful little guy he is.

Between his irresistible little underbite and his sweet, gentle personality, it's almost impossible not to fall in love with him.

Folsom entered the shelter with two other small dogs, so we were hopeful he'd be dog friendly—and he hasn't disappointed! He's been great with dogs both big and small, even happily snuggling with a tiny 7-pound foster sibling. 

And guess what, he has nuzzled up to a 1 pound foster kitten, mostly interested in his kitten food, but wasn’t interested in harming the little fluff.

He's also discovered that being part of a family is pretty wonderful. Whether you're making dinner, folding laundry, or relaxing on the couch, Folsom likes to quietly keep you company. If you can't find him, don't panic... just look down. Chances are he's patiently sitting at your feet.

He's already responding to his new name, enjoys bedtime snuggles, and is doing great with his house training as he settles into a routine.

We're so excited to watch this little guy continue to blossom, and we can't wait to help him find the forever family he deserves.

Welcome to New Hope, Folsom. We promise your prison blues are behind you.
