Isma combines the sass and style of a city Chihuahua with a mellow, loyal personality. Light on her feet, she moves with a quirky grace that’s all her own—often described as trotting like a miniature horse. Isma’s wardrobe is legendary among fosters; she rocks horizontal-striped onesies with an easy confidence. Rescued from tough conditions in Puerto Rico, she has blossomed in her Brooklyn foster home, showing her affectionate and easygoing side. She gravitates to laps and enjoys spending most of her day relaxing with her people. Soft, quiet, and content to hang out in a sling while errands are run, Isma is all about companionship, not chaos. She’s playful in small spurts and particularly favors crafting makeshift confetti out of cardboard and paper. She gets along well with other dogs and welcomes respectful young children. She’s friendly with strangers—happy to absorb attention and petting from new faces. House training is well managed, even with her medication for Congestive Heart Failure, which just means a bit of extra bathroom planning and, occasionally, a stylish diaper. She takes her medication easily and her condition is fully managed; her energy is surprisingly spry for her age. Isma will thrive in a calm, loving home with plenty of cozy spots, short walks, and attentive affection. She’s vaccinated, spayed, and recently had dental care. Her adoption fee is sponsored to help her find the right family. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
