About Renne

Renne is a small adult Chihuahua/Terrier mix who’s learning to trust people after coming from a hoarding situation. She quietly stays out of trouble, has had zero accidents in the house, and likes to walk behind you, observing more than jumping right in. She’s polite with other animals, gets along with other dogs, cats, and kids, and never makes a fuss at bedtime. Renne has come a long way in just a few days at the rescue, but she’ll need a patient adopter who understands that her confidence is still a work in progress. Give her space, let her come around at her own pace, and she’ll show you how far she can go. Your steady, calm environment could be just what she needs to blossom.
