About King (Chihuahua) in Minneapolis, MN 55416

King is waiting for you at Underdog Rescue MN in Minneapolis, MN 55416. King is a lovable, goofy boy with a heart as big as his personality. He may be sight-impaired, but don’t tell him that—he’s far too busy enjoying life, making friends, and perfecting the art of being a professional couch potato. Because King has limited vision, it takes him a little time to learn new surroundings and settle into a routine. Once he gets his bearings, though, he navigates surprisingly well and quickly becomes comfortable. And when that happens, you’ll discover a sweet, affectionate dog who pretty much loves everybody. King’s favorite activities include lounging on the couch with his people, exploring the fenced yard, enjoying treats, and eagerly anticipating mealtime. In fact, meal preparation is a full event in King’s world. His excitement is impossible to miss as he sploots on the floor, paddles his front legs, and lets out enthusiastic barks while waiting for his food to arrive. One of King’s most charming quirks is his signature grumble. When being picked up, having his harness put on, or sometimes even when receiving belly rubs, he may growl and grumble dramatically. It sounds much more serious than it is—he has never attempted to bite and is simply expressing himself in his own goofy way. Once you know him, you’ll quickly learn that the funny noises are just part of the King experience. King enjoys the company of other animals. He would love a playful dog companion closer to his own size, as he sometimes accidentally runs over very small dogs while navigating his surroundings. He also has a polite fascination with cats and seems convinced that someday they will agree to play with him. While he enjoys having animal friends, he does not require another pet in the home as long as his people are around much of the time. Despite only having one tooth left, King remains an enthusiastic eater and is always happy to sample treats and fruit. He has shown some interest in toys a
