Meet The Manager, a Chihuahua who takes his role very seriously! This tiny titan is always on the lookout for opportunities to micromanage his surroundings. He's a master of the "side-eye" and can often be found "inspecting" your every move.
Don't let his serious demeanor fool you, though. The Manager has a soft spot for belly rubs and enjoys the finer things in life, like sunbeams and cozy naps. He's a bit of a diva, but his charm is undeniable.
Ready to hire The Manager as your new Chief Executive Officer of Cuddles? Come meet him today!
