My Story
Tater (female) and Tot (male) are two adorable 13-14 week old terrier-ish mixes, possibly with Shih Tzu, a dash of Jack Russell, or Chihuahua. With their scruffy, fluffy coats and charming personalities, these sweet pups are impossible not to love.
Tater, the smaller of the two, is a tan-and-white bundle of joy, weighing just 6 lbs. Her brother, Tot, is slightly bigger at 7 lbs, with a striking mix of grey, white, and tan. Both are expected to remain under 15-20 lbs fully grown, but we can’t guarantee their exact adult size or breed mix.
These little ones are wonderful with dogs of all sizes, cats, and children. However, due to their tiny size and fragility, we’re seeking homes with children ages 10-12+ to ensure their safety.
Tater and Tot are already pee pad trained and crate trained, giving them a great start! However, they’ll need continued training to become fully housebroken. Routine, consistency, and time to acclimate to their new homes will be key to their success.
Tater and Tot are fully prepared for their next adventure! Both are:
• Spayed/Neutered
• Microchipped
• Vaccinated
• Dewormed
• Cleared for adoption with a health certificate from a licensed veterinarian
Important Details:
While these siblings adore each other, Tater and Tot will be adopted separately. We do not place littermates in the same home to prevent behavioral challenges and to help them develop independence.
Their soft, scruffy coats may require regular brushing and occasional professional grooming to keep them looking their best.
If you’re looking for a small, sweet companion, Tater or Tot could be the perfect fit! Apply today—these two are ready to go home and start their new lives with loving families.
