My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi Biggie Paws 🐾 Friends ! I am Dakota ! I am a sweet 💕 girl that is about 11 weeks old, I weigh approximately 8 pounds, I look like a Chihuahua Mix and I’m waiting for my Fur-Ever Family to pick me up in Kenosha, WI. 🚙💨

Just like my brother Philip, I am very shy at first with new humans. ☺️ Once I get comfortable though, I am the biggest love bug ❤️🐛 and will lay right on top of them. I make sure to let my humans know when I want attention by following them around and jumping up. Sometimes when they are sitting or laying down on the couch watching tv, I might even lay on top of them to snuggle. 🥰 I also LOVE ❤️ to be held, but when I’m being put back down …I tend to wiggle my way out of my humans arms and jump down on my own. 🫢

My humans think I may be food aggressive toward other dogs but I am NOT food aggressive toward them. I am a goofy 🤪 girl that LOVES ❤️ to run around and play. I especially LOVE to play with other dogs 🐕 and kiddos. I have heard about cats 🐈 …but I’ve never played with them. I still need to learn how to walk on a leash. 🦮 I AM learning about NOT going potty 🚽💩 inside, and I’m doing a good job 👍🏼 as long as my humans let me outside in time.

At the end of a long, busy day I LOVE to lay next to my humans and snuggle. 🥰 When it’s time to close my eyes, I sleep 😴 in a puppy pen with my siblings. I’ve only been in a crate when my humans take me in the car …and I do well with it during those times. 👍🏼

If you’d like to be considered to be my Fur-Ever Family, please fill out an adoption application under the link below. My adoption fee is $500 plus a $150 future spay deposit. The $150 deposit may be refunded once proof of my TIMELY spay is given to Biggie Paws. 🐾 I am up to date on my age appropriate shots 💉 and also microchipped.
