1 Here's Mazda, a darling Rat Terrier-Dachshund mix.
2 He is a 4 month old puppy surrendered by his owners when their landlord let them know that their rental contract prohibited them from having dogs.
3 Mazda weighs 8 lbs. He stands just under 9" tall and is about 10-1/2" long.
4 Mazda is full of puppy playfulness.
5 But even more than running and playing, he loves lap time and snuggling with his people.
6 He is initially somewhat hand-shy with strangers, particularly men. But he warms up quickly once he decides you are trustworthy.
7 Mazda does love to play with other dogs, and will pounce on them with enthusiasm.
8 Like a teething baby, he is not above a little puppy chewing!
9 He is just starting his housetraining and will require lots of positive reinforcement.
10 He is also just starting to learn about leashes, but he is a good natured fellow and will surely learn quickly.
