PLEASE READ THE ANIMAL'S PROFILE AND ALL NOTES BELOW BEFORE APPLYING! Hi, I'm Cookie Butter I'm a 1-year-old Chihuahua-Terrier mix with a soft heart, a shy personality, and a quiet curiosity about the world around me I may not open up right away, but I am watching, learning, and slowly figuring things out at my own pace. I'm the kind of girl who wants to trust-you just have to give me a little time and patience to get there. Once I start feeling safe, you'll begin to see the sweet, gentle soul underneath my nervousness Right now, I'm more comfortable observing than being handled, and I'm still building confidence in new situations like leash walking and new environments. I do recognize pee pads and am doing well with that, but I still have a lot to learn as I continue my journey. I can be a little unsure around cats and new experiences, and I definitely feel more secure in calm, structured environments. I do best when I have other dogs around me-they help show me that everything is okay and give me confidence to come out of my shell. My ideal home would be: * A patient, loving family who understands shy dogs * A calm environment with routine and structure * A home with another friendly dog sibling to help guide me * People who are willing to let me progress at my own pace I'm not the kind of dog who rushes into trust-but I am the kind who learns to love deeply once I finally get there With time, patience, and kindness, I know I can blossom into a loyal, gentle companion. I just need someone willing to believe in me while I learn how to believe in them Adoption FEE: $500 which includes her spay, microchip, and vaccines.
