My story

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

ONLY AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION IN NEW JERSEY AND LOCAL SURROUNDING AREAS!!!

Meet Winnie , a four-year-old Pekingese/Chihuahua mix who is ready to find her forever family! She recently had puppies and now it's her turn to be spoiled and cherished in a loving home. Winnie was rescued from a Northern New Jersey shelter, and she is truly a testament to resilience and the power of love.

  • Delicious Food and Treats: She is highly food motivated, which is fantastic for training and bonding!

  • Adventure Awaits: She adores going for car rides , making her an excellent companion for errands or road trips.

  • Exploring the World: Walks are a highlight of her day, keeping her happy and active.

  • Yard Time Fun: Sunbathing or simply sniffing around the perimeter, she enjoys her time in a secure yard .

  • Her Person: Above all, Winnie thrives on the bond with her chosen person and gives incredible affection in return.

Winnie is an incredible dog, but she is looking for an extraordinary home that is prepared to meet her specific needs. As a rescue, she needs a family that understands that she requires A LOT of time, patience, and love to truly blossom into her best, most confident self.

A few important notes on Winnie's ideal placement:

  • Winnie is looking for an adult-only home , as she does not get along with children .

  • She needs to be the only pet in the household, as she is not dog or cat friendly.

  • We require multiple meet and greets to ensure everyone is comfortable and that a deep bond can begin to form before adoption.

Winnie is waiting for that special human who sees her potential and is ready to shower her with the consistent support and affection she deserves. If you have the dedicated heart and quiet home Winnie needs, you will be rewarded with an incredibly loyal and loving companion!
