Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hola friends! I come from Jalisco Mexico. Lots of homeless and unwanted dogs down here but lucky for me I was picked up by a very nice local rescue who provided me with wonderful vet care, all my vaccines, spay/neuter, and even housetrained me, and taught me how to walk on a leash! So, here I was with my adorable pictures on local adoption sites, but it turns out, not a lot of options down here for us to get homes. The local rescue, however, was determined to find us all loving homes and reached out to a few rescues in the US and asked to partner with them. 4 Little Paws stepped up and took 31 of us! I am very excited to be moving to the East Coast in search of a wonderful future and a real forever home!

Let your heart be touched by the spellbinding spirit of Gretel, a Wire-Haired Terrier mix whose resilience shines as brightly as her endearing nature. At the tender age of 1 and with a light physique of 4 kg (8.8 lbs), our Petite Princess embodies the zest of the young and the poise of the truly elegant.
Gretel, with her light tan coat, radiates an alluring, gentle vibe that is as inviting as her charming personality. Her recent adventure through a medical setback with her eyesight has only highlighted her admirable bravery. Now, as a little warrior, she navigates her world with one seeing eye. But worry not, for her spirit remains unclouded, and she continues to captivate with her affection and grace.
As a testament to her amiable character, Gretel steps lightly on the leash, guiding her human companions with quiet dignity. She's fastidious in her habits, housebroken, and ever-ready to share her boundless love with those who surround her.
To continue to thrive, our darling Gretel now needs a little extra tender loving care—regular eye drops in her good eye to keep it healthy. This small act of kindness is rewarded tenfold with the love and companionship that Gretel offers.
Are you the special someone who can embrace Gretel's journey with sensitivity and care? If a blend of cuteness, courage, and unwavering love is what you seek in a canine friend, Gretel is waiting just for you. Open your life to this incredible Petite Princess and join her on an extraordinary journey of love and companionship.
