About Little Bean

Little Bean is a 4-year-old female Boxer mix with a compact, medium build and a smooth short coat in warm chestnut tones. She arrived at the shelter as a stray, looking pretty rough, but after some weeks of rest and good care, she’s bounced back and is healthy enough to start her next chapter. Little Bean really soaks up attention and never says no to a belly rub. She’s not a fan of cats, but she does get along with other dogs. If you have a resident dog, you’ll need to bring them to the shelter for a meet-and-greet before adoption. Little Bean isn’t house trained yet, but she’s motivated to learn, especially if treats or affection are involved. For now, she’s available on a Foster-to-Adopt basis until she’s spayed. Fun sun sign fact: born under Aries, Little Bean is lively, determined, and always up for a little adventure. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
