Ariel is a 4-year-old, 10 lb Yorkie mix with a bold spirit and a sensitive side, looking for an experienced, adult-only home. Fiercely loyal once she bonds, Ariel is sweet and affectionate—but on her own terms. She's house-trained, crate-trained, and prefers routines and predictable days to help manage her anxiety, for which she's currently on Prozac and thriving. Her resource guarding behaviors mean she sets clear boundaries and needs someone who reads dog signals and is committed to positive, structured handling. Ariel does well with other dogs after careful introductions, but really craves the status of being the center of attention. Children are not a fit for her; she needs adults who respect her cues and never force interactions. She's playful without being wild and has made real progress decompressing in her foster home with slow trust-building. Ariel will do best in a calm environment with a fenced yard and a dog-savvy adopter who can continue her journey with patience and understanding. If you want a pint-sized companion with attitude, affection, and a dash of diva, Ariel is ready for her next chapter. Your new best friend is just one click away.
