If you’re looking for a dog that is truly one-of-a-kind, look no further than yardstick. This handsome 8-month-old fellow traveled all the way from Mountain City, Tennessee, to find a family that will love him as much as he loves his toys.

Yardstick is a unique blend of pitbull and chihuahua, giving him the perfect "pocket pittie" look—a big, soulful head on a sturdy, low-to-the-ground 25-pound body.

 A Perfect Houseguest

Yardstick may be young, but he’s already a total pro at indoor living. He is:

• Housebroken and crate trained

•Socially Savvy: He’s friendly with other dogs, cats, and even kids!

 His Most Prized Possession

Yardstick is a sentimental soul. He doesn't travel light—he comes with his absolute favorite christmas stuffie. He carries it with him like a security blanket, and it’s the quickest way to see his tail start wagging. Whether it’s playtime or naptime, as long as he has his stuffie and a human nearby, he’s a happy camper.

 Fast Facts:

• Age: 8 Months (The perfect age to bond!)

• Weight: 25 lbs (The ideal "take-anywhere" size)

• Health: Up to date on vaccines and will be neutered prior to adoption.

• Personality: Sweet, quirky, and loyal.

Yardstick’s Wishlist: A cozy bed, a family to snuggle with, and a lifetime supply of squeaky toys (though his Christmas stuffie will always be #1).
