Hi! My name is Leroy and I am looking for a forever home. I was picked up as a stray by animal control and taken to a pretty scary place called a shelter where, after my hold time was up, I was in danger of being placed on something bad called 'the list" 'cause they were so full. Fortunately, BCAA saw me and said they would help me ... yeah! I appear to be a long-legged chihuahua mix but I'm only a little under 10lbs, and at around 18mos old I shouldn't get much bigger. I'm a little shy when first meeting new people but I do love getting attention once I've determined you're safe. I have gotten along with most all of the other dogs I have met although I can be a little bossy when I first meet other males who are also a little on the bossy side; I haven't paid any attention to those cats I've encountered who all weigh more than me. I have done well in my crate without any accidents, barking or tearing up of the bedding although I would prefer to be out and about with you. I have even shared my crate with another small female friend without any issues at all, even when we're eating. I'm still learning about what a leash is all about but am working on getting it down pat as I love go explore and run around (I would love a fenced yard to keep me safe and take care of my business!). If you would like to meet me, please fill out an application which can be found at www.bcaaofnj.org. Interested in adopting this pet? Click here for BCAA's on-line Application!
