Hello, I’m Dottie!

I’m a small Chihuahua with a gentle and sweet personality. I can be a little sensitive at first and sometimes take a moment to feel comfortable, but with patience and kindness I warm up and show my loving side. I enjoy quiet moments, cozy blankets, and being close to the people I trust. I’m happiest in calm spaces where I can relax and feel safe. Once I get to know you, I’m a very loyal little companion who loves to stay nearby and share lots of sweetness. Because of my shyness, I will need a patient adopter who has a calm home (I enjoy other mellow dog friends, but I would prefer a home without young children).
