Story
Dainty is at our shelter. Please submit an application from our website or just come in to meet her during open hours!
Is that a fox? A miniature wolf? A woodland fairy disguised as a dog? Nope! It's Dainty, our ridiculously adorable, perfectly petite, 30-pound Husky girl!
At just about a year old, Dainty found herself at Chicago Animal Care and Control after being picked up as a stray in early November. Sadly, nobody came to claim her. But when our team visited CACC and spotted this tiny, vulpine creature looking back at us, we were absolutely smitten. We knew we had to bring her to Heartland!
Dainty is everything her name suggests. She's petite, delicate-looking, and impossibly cute, with the prettiest little face, enormous ears, and a smile that could melt even the coldest heart. And those eyes! They absolutely twinkle with just a hint of that signature Husky mischief. You know the look. The one that says, "I'm a very good girl... but I might have a few ideas of my own."
As it turns out, Dainty's personality is every bit as delightful as her appearance. She's a happy, friendly, outgoing little gal who has been wonderful with everyone she's met so far. She's also a BIG fan of other dogs! We introduced her to playgroup, and she had a blast making friends and romping around with her new buddies. Watching this tiny Husky confidently join the fun was just about the cutest thing ever.
And while she may look like a dainty little woodland creature, don't forget that she's still just a young pup. Beneath that adorable exterior is a bright, curious girl who will benefit from plenty of opportunities to play, explore, learn, and put that clever little brain to work.
We don't know what Dainty's life looked like before she arrived at CACC, or how such a lovely girl ended up without a home. But we do know that she's made a wonderful impression on everyone she's met, and we're so excited about what lies ahead for her.
Dainty has her whole life ahead of her, and we think that life is going to be pretty spectacular.
If you've ever dreamed of having your very own little fox, complete with a winning smile, a playful spirit, and just a sprinkle of sass, Dainty is your girl!
Come meet this pint-sized beauty!
