08/26/2015 PET PROFILE MEMO
08/26/15 14:55 Basic Information: JoJo is a 4yr old male Chihuahua mix that has a heart murmur and some form of skin allergy according to the owner. Social Life & Personality: JoJo comes from a home with children and he interacted with them in a playful gentle manner. He has been around dogs as well (Big & Small) and he got along with them just fine. The owner isn’t sure how JoJo would respond in the presence of a cat due to never having one around for him to interact with. JoJo is an indoor only dog that is house broken. JoJo is described to be mellow, aloof, friendly, and affectionate with a low activity level. Behavior Issues: JoJo has never bitten a person or another animal according to the owner. When it comes to food, treats, and toys JoJo doesn’t have any guarding issues. These items can be given and taken away with no issues according to the owner. JoJo takes well to recieving baths and having his coat brushed. However he is fearful of having his nails trimmed and will attempt to snap if tried. For a New Family to Know: JoJo only knows one basic command and that is to sit. He went for slow walks on a leash for daily exercise and this was done twice a day. JoJo had dog toys but showed minimal to no interest in them. When in the home JoJo is the type to follow you around seeking attention. When left alone in the home JoJo is well behaved. JoJo was brought up eating dry food and the brand the owner gave was Blue Buffalo.
