About Slinky (Chihuahua) in Minneapolis, MN 55416

Slinky is waiting for you at Underdog Rescue MN in Minneapolis, MN 55416. Slinky may be little, but this 8-month-old Chihuahua/Dachshund mix has a huge personality and an even bigger heart! Happy, friendly, and full of life, Slinky approaches each day with excitement and is always ready for his next adventure. Whether it’s going for a walk, playing fetch, zooming around the yard, or simply making new friends, this fun-loving pup is happiest when he’s part of the action. Like any young dog, Slinky loves to play. He can often be found carrying around a favorite toy, tossing a stuffie in the air, or happily chewing on a Benebone. His goofy antics are guaranteed to keep you laughing, and his playful spirit makes every day a little brighter. Once he’s had a chance to burn off some puppy energy, Slinky transforms into an affectionate cuddle bug. He loves curling up beside his favorite people on the couch, soaking up belly rubs and attention before settling in for the evening. He’s the perfect combination of playful companion and devoted snuggle buddy. One of Slinky’s most impressive qualities is what a wonderful houseguest he already is. He is crate trained and happily sleeps quietly in his crate for 8–10 hours each night, making bedtime easy for everyone. Slinky would thrive with an active family or individual who will include him in daily adventures, continue his training, and give him plenty of love, toys, and playtime. In return, you’ll gain a loyal best friend who will make you laugh, keep you company, and remind you every day just how much joy a young dog can bring. If you’re looking for a sweet, goofy, affectionate puppy who is equal parts adventure buddy and cuddle companion, Slinky is ready to wiggle his way right into your heart. I’m a growing puppy and I have not yet had a lot of experience with crates, kids or cats and I might bark if something alarms me, but I really love to learn and hoping for a family who will take me to a basic obedience class t
