Description:

Chakotay is a 3 to 4 year old shi tzu or lhasa apso type mix. He loves to get ear rubs and loves to be around other dogs. He likes to play fetch, but only for a little while at a time.

He is dealing with some fear issues right now. Once he learns to trust his foster mom it might get better, but right now she has to be careful when picking him up, because if he thinks he’s going into the crate, he snaps at her. She can lift him onto the bed with no problem though because he knows what to expect. She also has to let him know that she's going to pet him because he doesn’t like surprises. These things are fairly easy to deal with if you are an adult, but because of his persnickety personality, he should not go to a home with kids. He does love to be cuddled and loved on, he just wants to know that it's coming.

Chakotay is obsessed with another dog in the home and has to be within touching distance of the dog almost at all times. He also likes to bathe the other dog until he is sopping wet on one side. The vet said that he should go to a home without another dog, so that he can't focus on another dog so completely, but he should be able to play with dogs regularly.

** Foster works full time, so contact will be made through email. Please make sure to check your email regularly.

Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all animals before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the animals shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the animal is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Animals MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our animals back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted animal.

Please understand the statements about this animal are based upon the foster home's evaluation of the animal. The animal might behave differently (negatively or positively) in your home. While the animal might be good with the current foster’s dogs, cats, children, etc., it may not be with your animal(s) or children. The animal may be housebroken or litter trained in the home of the foster but may relapse in your home. The animal is represented to the public as it performs in the foster home and any statements made regarding the animal are conditional to that foster home setting. Please understand that statements made regarding this animal are simply overviews and are not guaranteed.

The Petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our animals. Visual breed identification in animals is unreliable so for most of the animals we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each animal as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our animals based on personality, not by breed label.

Thank you for looking through our list of animals needing forever homes and choosing rescue first. We appreciate you stopping by.
