LITTLE BUDDY- Looking

for someone to snuggle with? Look no further. Meet

Joey, a male Chihuahua mix, approximately 2 1/2

years old. He's such a

charmer, it's hard to understand why he was so

thoughtlessly dumped at

the shelter. He loves to sleep with his head on your shoulder. He plays well with

other dogs and likes cats

too. He'd probably be

happier in a home with older children. He's very

playful with toys,

housebroken and just waiting for the right family

to scoop him up and

smother him with kisses.
