Meet Cody – A Shy, Smart Chihuahua Mix with a Big Heart

North Carolina | 2 Years, 3 Months | Chihuahua Mix | ⚖️ 25 lbs | Male

Cody is the goodest boy—a sweet, playful, and sensitive 2-year-old Chihuahua mix who's come a long way since arriving in his foster home. At 25 lbs, he’s a bit bigger than your average Chi, but every pound is packed with potential and heart.

He’s still learning to trust people and can be shy, but Cody is incredibly smart and adjusting beautifully with time and patience. He now lets people approach, uses a bell on the back door to ask to go potty, and has had just one accident inside due to fear. He’s crate-trained, quiet, and loves to play with squeaky toys—or even play catch with himself!

Cody’s Ideal Home:
Great with other calm, friendly dogs

‍♂️ Prefers quiet humans – he’s not demanding of attention

Not suited for homes with young children (he’s afraid, but not aggressive)

Needs a secure fenced yard (still fearful of leashes)

Enjoys alone time or hanging with another gentle pup

Nearly house-trained – just needs routine and patience

Loves toys, soft beds, and calm environments

Not yet cat tested

Bonus:
Cody is low-maintenance, gentle, and just wants to feel safe. He doesn’t need constant attention—just a calm home, some space to decompress, and a kind person (or dog!) to quietly show him the good life.
