Sully

Sully believes evenings are for two things: zoomies and concerts. First he tears around the house wearing his silliest expression; then, if one of his favorite songs comes on, he tips his head back and howls along with complete seriousness. Once the performance is over, he flops into bed and sleeps like a rock.

At three years old and 17 pounds, Sully is an active Chihuahua for adoption who brings plenty of personality to the day. His flirt pole may be his favorite invention, but hikes, parks and car rides rank pretty high too. After some exercise, he’s equally happy curling up beside you on the couch.

Sully enjoys canine friends but doesn’t need another dog at home. He’s also proven himself comfortable in a working household, settling while his people are away and saving his energy for playtime before and after work. He’s reliably house trained and remarkably respectful of belongings—his toys are treasured possessions, not demolition projects.

Because Sully has opinions he occasionally expresses through barking, a house rather than an apartment or condo would suit him best. He’d also prefer a home without young children. If you hope to adopt a rescue dog who can hike with you, make you laugh, then settle in for a snuggle, this rescue dog for adoption offers quite a combination.

Sully is available for adoption throughout Texas through Addicus’ Legacy Dog Rescue, and to approved adopters in CT, VT, NH, NY, NJ, PA, MD, VA, NC, OH, and TN via a trusted transport partner. With fosters across the region and an Austin-area hub, we place dogs rescued from Texas and Mexico with loving foster families throughout the country.
