She is super sweet and loving. Just wants to be right next to you. She keeps up with my much larger dog walking and jogging. She likes the dog park a lot but loves being a lap dog even more. She is a quick learner. She no longer begs for food or comes into kitchen while I am cooking and even does a couple of tricks that my dog does. One of the coolest things about her is that she hasn't barked yet with us, even though our dog barks often and both of our neighbor's dogs bark. She's quiet and sweet as can be.

She is a pocket dog that loves to play fetch with her tiny squeaky ball. She is a cutie to curl up on your lap when you read a book or watch T.V. This little lady is cute, loving, and smart! She is the sweetest little thing and loves to be on your lap! She can do regular sized walks with our dog and doesn't mind being a homebody either...she just wants to be with her person! She has opened up a lot since we started fostering her and she is super confident and just adorable!
