About Mimi

While she enjoys companionship, Mimi can be possessive of her belongings and prefers not to have things taken away. Chihuahua experience is a must for her new family, who should appreciate her strong, spirited nature. If you’re searching for a small dog with a big personality, Mimi could be the one.
