My story

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

Yvie is a 5-year-old Chihuahua mix with a gentle heart and a sweet, quirky personality that shines once she feels safe. She may be shy at first, but with a little patience and love, this tiny 8-pound girl blossoms into the most affectionate lap companion. Once Yvie trusts you, she shows her joy in the cutest ways, big smiles, happy jumps, and her signature “meerkat” sit when she’s excited to see you. She loves to cuddle close, especially in a cozy blanket or your lap, and she’ll gently ask for pets with her paw. Yvie would do best in a calm, predictable home with adults or older children who understand how to give her space when she’s feeling shy. She may enjoy a home with another mellow dog, but she’s just as content being the only pet. A fenced yard isn’t required, she’s happy playing indoors and going for short walks. Yvie takes fluoxetine to help with anxiety and is on a special z/d diet. She’s a little sensitive about her kennel and food, so she appreciates having her own safe spaces to retreat to when she needs a break. If you’re looking for a small, loyal companion who just wants a quiet life filled with love, soft toys, and cozy snuggles, Yvie might be the perfect match.
Yvie is spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccines.
