Pet of the Week: Adopt Brutus, a Little Cup of Sweet Chi

Editor's note: This is the first week we'll be running a weekly series called "Pet of the Week" where we feature a companion up for adoption from Last Hope animal rescue.

Brutus is a little chihuahua who is ready to be held and give lots of kisses. He is a one-person dog and will love you forever.

Brutus weighs just 5.5 pounds—a "pocket pet," if you will—and is 4 years old. He was a stray before he came to Last Hope.

He's a quiet, sweet boy most of the time, and great with other dogs. He would be best around kids 16 and up who are used to handling small dogs.

Adoption fee is $175, and he's already been neutered and is current with shots. He's also doing well on housebreaking.

To learn more about Brutus, call Stacy at 651-414-9939. To see more dogs and cats available for adoption from Last Hope, come to Last Hope's adoption day, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday at the .

You can see all available dogs and cats on the Last Hope website.
