Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Chyna – Your Quiet Little Shadow 🐾
Chyna arrived from Mexico just last Friday, but it feels like she’s been gently stealing hearts for much longer. At 8 years old and a dainty 10 lbs, this petite sweetheart is as soft in spirit as she is in step.
She’s incredibly quiet—so much so, her foster mom has only heard her bark once! Instead, she lets out the tiniest mews or whimpers when she sees you’re heading out, but she settles quickly, never making a fuss.
She’s fine with respectful children
Chyna adores other dogs and finds special comfort in the companionship of her foster sibling (a doodle). Though she might still be figuring out the language, she’s wonderfully responsive to hand signals and gentle cues. She’s house-trained and polite—just be mindful of her subtle way of waiting by the door when she needs to go. She doesn’t appear to be food motivated, but enjoys her breakfast and dinner.
She hasn’t shown interest in toys yet—likely because she never had them before—but what she does love is closeness. Her happiest moments are spent curled up beside her foster mom, pressed into cozy blankets, soaking up every ounce of affection. She sleeps soundly in bed with her mom, barely moving, just grateful to be near someone she trusts. Chyna has been fine staying alone at home with her foster brother for a couple of hours during the day.
Chyna walks beautifully on a leash and does a sweet little happy dance when it’s time to go outside. She doesn’t have a preference for grass and is perfectly comfortable doing her business on the sidewalk. She’s great in the car, and totally unbothered by squirrels, cats, or other distractions.
A fenced yard is a must as she loves to explore the world with her sweet little nose - she would continue to wander without a clear boundary
Chyna would thrive in a quiet, loving home where she can continue to blossom. She isn’t overly energetic, finding 2 or 3 short walks ample. She doesn’t ask for much—just a warm lap, a soft blanket, and someone to love her back as deeply as she loves.
Could Chyna be your little shadow ?
Chyna is being fostered in Whitby.

As my foster family gets to know me my profile can change and will be updated accordingly. Check back often for details! An application for me can be found at www.justpaws.ca.
Just Paws is located in the Greater Toronto Area of Ontario, Canada. We do not adopt out of province or country.
Please note that although many of our dogs get along with children, we are not able to adopt to any household with kids under the age of 8 years old. This is a stipulation of our insurance and is not a reflection on suitability of the potential adopter.
