Story
Meet Mummy!This 4-year-old female Chihuahua mix was found in the county near Wapato, and she’s a truly pretty little redhead with a gentle soul. While she may be small in size, her heart is big — it just takes a little time to see it.She is shy and unsure around new people, but with the staff she knows and trusts, she allows herself to be picked up, cuddled, and loved. Once she feels safe, her sweet side quietly shines through. Because of her timid nature, she will do best in a calm, patient home with someone who understands that trust takes time and is willing to let her move at her own pace.A home with another friendly small dog could be a big help, giving her confidence and a comforting companion to learn from. With the right adopter, this lovely girl has the potential to blossom into a devoted, affectionate little companion.If you have a gentle heart and the patience to help a shy dog feel safe and loved, she may be the perfect match for you.This pet is available for adoption on 1/10/26 at the Yakima Humane Society adoption center.
