At just 2 years old and under 10 lbs, Nemo may be tiny, but his heart is full of love and potential. This wire-haired terrier and chihuahua mix ended up in a shelter through no fault of his own, and now he’s ready to start fresh with someone who understands how overwhelming the world can be for a little dog. He’s sweet, sensitive, and looking for a calm, caring environment to call home.

Why He’s the Ultimate Pocket-Sized Companion
🐾 Just 9.8 lbs—perfect for lap cuddles and small spaces
🐶 Dog-friendly and enjoys canine companionship
👃 Loves sniffy walks and gentle exploration
💖 Bonds deeply and offers loyal, loving gazes
