About Taffeta’s Breed:

Papillon mixes are known for their intelligence, loyalty, and strong bonds with their people. They often have confident personalities despite their small size and enjoy a balance of playtime and quiet companionship. Taffy fits this perfectly — playful when she feels like it, but happiest curled up with her favorite humans.

Taffeta’s Story & Personality:

Taffy is a sweet girl with a big personality who takes even bigger naps. She can be cautious when meeting new people and may bark at first, but once she warms up, she’s a total love. She has some hearing loss and only hears very loud or high-pitched noises, which makes her quite hard to wake from her naps. She’s almost always found carrying or snuggling her favorite toys, Gumby or Lambchop, and has a charming mix of sass and sweetness.

Taffeta’s Ideal Home:

• A calm, homebody-style household

• One to two small, submissive dogs or a feline companion

• Someone who enjoys cuddling and close companionship

• A patient adopter who allows her time to warm up
