Notes from Albuquerque Animal Services - Westside

Meet Chris, who seems to have two completely different personalities—and you have to get him out of the kennel to meet the mellow one! When approaching in his kennel, Chris is busy showing off his jumping-bean routine. Once outside, though, his energy level comes way down. Chris takes care of business right away, does some sniffing and exploring, and then settles into being a mellow little shadow who follows you around. Chris knows sit, takes treats fairly gently, and has wonderfully soft fur. He is friendly and affectionate, enjoys attention, and gives sweet kisses. Balls and toys? Apparently not his thing. Chris would much rather hang out with his person. Chris is also friendly and appropriate with other dogs at the fence. He pulls some on leash but walks much better with a harness, making him a nice walking companion once he gets going. Chris is a soft, mellow, affectionate guy who would much rather be your sidekick than a jumping bean!
