Chacho
- RAD Rescue
- Updated
Chacho is a small, male (neutered) Terrier mix who is about 8-10 months old, approximately . A friend of RAD Rescue found this little nugget out on his own a mess or dirt and grime. He was recently neutered where an umbilical hernia was uncovered and repaired — all healing well. This kiddo is an INCREDIBLY sweet and happy boy. He has energy to burn, being a young pup, but he loves to play fetch and LOVES his tug toys from RAD Rescue. He prefers to be where you are, so get used to a permanent shadow. Despite his playful nature, he is also very content laying on your lap and relaxing with you. Chacho has done well with other dogs, both big and small that can handle his playful energy. If you are interested in making Chacho a part of your family, please contact RAD Rescue Inc at 661-400-5151 or fill out an adoption application online at www.radrescueinc.org. His adoption fee is $125 and he comes up-to-date on his vaccines, micro-chipped, and neutered.
