This absolute star may take a moment to warm up, but once she does, she’ll have you smitten! Don’t let her small size fool you; she boasts a big bark that ensures no one underestimates her toughness. Beneath that fierce exterior lies a gentle soul, especially around her canine friends. She loves to run and wrestle with her fellow small housemate and has graciously hosted numerous foster siblings. While she prefers to leave the resident cats alone, she’s always up for a treat-seeking adventure together! Her playful spirit shines with human cousins aged 12 to 14—whether it's football, tag, or catch, she’s ready to dominate the game and shower you with kisses afterward. Due to a back injury, she requires a little extra help with stairs and high places, needing a boost onto couches and beds. She’s potty trained, though her unique “potty dance” may give you a laugh! With a sensitive tummy, she may take her time at mealtime, but that just means breakfast in bed for her! This spirited girl enjoys snoozing under blankets, rolling in the grass, and fetching balls and sticks. She walks well on a leash but is protective of her pack when she spots larger dogs, so a fenced yard is a must. While she doesn’t like to share her food, she’s a champion in her kennel, though she prefers the freedom of being inside with her favorite humans. If you’re ready to welcome a spirited companion into your life, this little diva is waiting for you!
