About Tiny Taco’s Breed:
Chihuahuas may be tiny, but their hearts are mighty. These loyal companions are known for their strong bonds with their humans and their love of cozy cuddles. They’re often alert, expressive, and full of personality—ranging from confident and bold to sweet and timid. With patience and love, a Chihuahua becomes a devoted and affectionate family member who brings warmth, charm, and just the right amount of sass.

Tiny Taco’s Story & Personality:
Tiny Taco came from a tough background and is learning what it means to be a beloved pet. He's still figuring out how to walk on a leash and build his house manners, but his sweet, affectionate nature is shining through more each day. What Taco wants most is to be close to his person—curled up on the couch, snuggled in a blanket, or held lovingly in your arms. He’s calm, quiet, and incredibly endearing, but also loves to get his playtime in. He’s also bonded with his best friend Rocky Ricardo, and the two are inseparable. They comfort and support each other and must be adopted as a pair. Tiny Taco may take a little time to adjust, but he’ll repay your patience with loyal love and endless snuggles.

Tiny Taco’s Perfect Home:



Has a securely fenced yard (he’s still learning leash walking)


Can adopt both Tiny Taco and Rocky Ricardo together


Patient and willing to continue his training


Wants a gentle, quiet companion to share cozy moments with but also a playful friend
